    Found the dog. Via the miracle of the internet, I called and like, the dude was like, "no such pet has been turned in." Then he started talking about the Facebook page wherein I could post a heartfelt message or plea or whatever.

    And I was like, YEAH but it's FB.

    But then I was like, "YEAH but it's the KID'S DOG." So I looked, and I guess the dude does not keep track of his FB page well (he sounded harried) because there was a picture of the dog with a "Post your name and address and phone number and we will be in touch." So I called the husband and like, made him create a FB account to do it (he was getting ready to leave) and like, it was almost like he was ANGRY the dog had been found. Like, he had fatalistically given up or whatever" and I was like "I DON'T CARE WHEN YOU LEAVE YOU LOST THE DOG I TOOK TIME AT WORK TO FIND THE 58yt^%$e$%^ DOG, YOU POST THE MESSAGE AND THEN YOU WAIT OR I WILL KILL YOU." Type thing.

    He left the dog here. I think he may have had words with the dog, because the dog was all shivery and traumatized like those little dogs get. I will let him in as I cook dinner, not before because, well, part of the reason the dog is with us is, it's not house trainable. We have tried EVERYTHING. If I let him in to his "special place'" I will be cleaning up dog poop every morning. That's not fun.

    In any case my mom was all excited. I should ask her to pray for me AT ALL times, because man, then every good thing that happens to me will be her doing and she will be happy.

    Kid remains unaware that dog was like, gone. Seriously though had I NOT gone poking around the internet I would never have found that post. I did not access the dog pound via FB, let me put it that way.

    But I'm not going to say mean things about FB, for like at LEAST one day.

    So glad you found the dog:)

    I fixed it. I posted it inside your quote to start with
    Sorry about that... I didn't even think to look there. Thanks.:)
    Pur mango is my fav mango. It does take a couple weeks steep before you will like it. I really like golden eye also. It steeps in a couple of days. Both are pretty realistic mangos. The golden eye seems to blend better with other fruits but either work. I dont care for the papaya mango. I think I have all there fruits
    When you say Pur Mango, you are referring to this one? Purilum Mango

    The ones that caught my attention were:
    Nicotine River Mango (supposed to be NR/PUR's sweet ripe mango version)
    Nicotine River Mango Sour (supposed to be NR/PUR's sour mango version)
    Nicotine River Golden Eye (supposed to be a bend of sweet & sour versions, and (maybe?) additional fruits.

    How is the Purilum labeled one different?
    For the Golden Eye, how noticeable/forward are the additional fruit notes? Or, are they hidden in the background, and just filling out the mango profile.

    Sorry for the million questions. You just seem to have a lot of experience with Purilum and NR brands. :)

    Not me. I'm still 100% student, and at the kindergarten level at that.

    Me too, been mixing since July last year, but only lately have I tried to actually create recipes with a specific 'taste' in mind. So I'm in grade 2 ;) I love this rabbit hole :D

    Since I only received my LNW delivery today I only had 3 new flavors to play with. I mixed separately as standalones, the following LNW flavors (hopefully these are new flavors and not just rebranded/renamed flavors as I believe FA's Red Summer is. I may be wrong but I though I'd once read sometimes flavors are repackaged under different names): Peach, Blue Strawberry Cotton Candy and Watermelon Candy. All smell good out of the bottle, I can't wait to try them!

    As I posted in the shinyitis thread, I am very glad the dog is back and safe and I'm quite annoyed at your husband.

    Speaking of DIYFS, have any of you mixed with their French Cafe Napoleon? I got a 30ml free sample of that with my Holy Vanilla order and have no idea what it might be good mixed with. It is not a coffee flavor, from what I understand. It is more of a French Vanilla Creamer. IDK what to use it with.

    If anyone wants DIYFS Holy Vanilla or the Gooey Butter Cake which will only be available until they run out of stock, the coupon code ECF20 is a permanent 20% off coupon for our forum.

    OK twisted my arm, never had either of these, but seems very popular, so I'll give both a go before they are no more.

    Thanks for sharing discount code :)

    Thats's funny!:laugh: @Skeebo just posted this, this morning:
    My DIYS holy grail RY4 came in and they included a nice size sample of the V2, I really appreciate that. Btw, on my last order with DIYS they included a sample of French Napoleon Cafe. It was very good at 10% with 1% FA Coffee Expresso. If you like creamy lite coffee flavors the FNC is great as a stand alone.

    To me it sounds like their id checker flagged you cause you're using your illegal name. :w00t: :lol:

    ID please...

    I sent them my id and a selfie of me holding the id....even told them they could do a quick search for lea shadav online and they'd see it's me, picture matches the id, but I don't like using my legal name on things other than legal matters....but they said that the name of who bought it and the name on the order and address have to all be the same.... pft it doesn't matter lmfao no one can spell my legal name anyways so I mean common....the names will never match :p
    but it's annoying that they waited until after they took my payment to tell me this, otherwise I could have fixed it myself (as I've had this happen a few times at other places)

    It is not the most user-friendly website on the planet. :eek: If you want the Holy Vanilla, here is the direct link.
    HOLY Vanilla Flavoring DIY #HV01
    Oh, I found it fine, along with a few other things that struck my fancy, but when I tried to check out I hit a wall. If I felt more perky, I could've scaled it with no difficulty, but the climb was too much for me tonight. Maybe I'll try again tomorrow; maybe I won't. I'll wait to see where the day takes me.

    Thanks, @PJReid.
