    Somewhere between here and there
    Ok i need to pick someone's brain.

    Was just browsing the chefs website for aromas and a thought came up,more like a question.

    So ok,is there like a group of basic ''aromas''?
    Like for example all the aromas like churro,cookies,cheesecake would go under the ''sweet'' tag.
    Then orange,lime,grapfruit etc would be under the ''citric'' tag

    So for now and from what I've seen around this is what i came up with:

    Sweet
    Citric
    Fruity
    Drinks (anything from Coke to Piña Colada)
    tobacco

    Is there any ''tag'' i might have missed?

    Maybe bakery and drinks

    Ok but ''tag'' wise I'm not missing anything right?
    Just want to start with the basics for now,specially interested in some of the drink flavored aromas,this looks like it could be tasty:

    Almond Amaretto - TFA

    Big fan of the ''Godfather'' (Amaretto with Whisky and some orange zest),wondering if i could make the vape version.

    Now that i think of it...I HATE ALL OF YOU!!

    First with the Shinyitis support group and the picture of your setup threads,i already own 2 mods and 2 atomizers and now i got another mod on my mind...

    And on top of that now i have the DIY thread which is taunting me,like Ricardo Montalban said in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan:

    He tasks me. He tasks me and I shall have him! I'll chase him 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Antares Maelstrom and 'round perdition's flames before I give him up!

    *sigh*

    Ok so i guess I'm hooked on new mods/attys and DIY....you're all to blame!!

    Please tell me about that one I actually had a dream about vaping rootbeer... have not tried it) Woke up drooling and I swear I could taste rootbeer)
    Very simple mix.
    Rootbeer float FW 7%
    Vanilla bean ice cream CAP 3.5%
    Super sweet CAP .5%
    Can be shaked and then vaped!

    Which reminds me.. I need to be brave and venture and experiment with the Rootbeer float RF that was generously gifted to me by @rosesense !

    I could see the aforementioned ws23 being utilized in my RBF too

    Yeah. It's so low in this recipe, it could be skipped entirely. Personal taste and preference of course :)
    I might be wrong, but I think it's the only mix I use it in. I still have the same 13 or whatever ml capella bottle I bought over a year ago with plenty to spare :lol:

    @vaper1960 maybe you should try mixing a small sample of the RBF, and adjust to preference. With just 3 (or just 2) ingredients, it'll be easy to see which direction you need to go, or anything to add. The rootbeer float FW is very good, some people even just use it solo with nothing else!

    I am compelled to quote my Mexican dentist story. My mom "had a good one" so she said and she wanted me to visit as it might be cheaper. She helped with my implants. The guy was really hairy. He had hairy hands. He put those hands WITHOUT gloves into my damn MOUTH. He also repeated called me a .... user, which I did not find at all pleasant. Fortunately, he quoted a price easily matched in the US. Because I was NEVER going back. While my mom had her "consult" (I would have been running for the hills after watching MINE) well, I just sat outside yelling at dude (and why are they all dude) merchants (I assume begging me to come visit their emporium.) I just yelled at them loud enough until they fled.

    Nogales is vile. I didn't go into a Pharmacia I was scared of what I might fined that was awesome like Tramadol or whatnot.. I HAVE heard there are some legit, US dentists who have across the border practices to boost their US one, but you really need to know what you are doing. I need an upper liner for my denture but for now, I am gonna make my husband do it. He hates it but he does a good job and it lasts the same as any other denture liner for 3 dollars fifty.

    So hello everyone. Yes, some jerk was a jerk at me on the internet, and I got upset and regressed to middle school. That doesn't happen often, and actually it was good for me, and who cares really to be HONEST? I remembered why these creatures do what they do and I'm just like, the opposite of love is indifference not hate. So have at it people who may or may not (who knows, who cares) be insulting me behind my back, you just go ahead and keep feeding me your negative energy and I will bloom. Like Daniel Forsythe who LIKED my "I gotta go" post, I assume someone made him remove it.:lol::lol::lol::lol: I swear to God, I have him on ignore so the only way he can get to me is by ratings. Fortunately, I found it deeply amusing. I was like, "Holy goodness that dude could carry a metric ton of grudge across the Sahara desert without breaking a sweat. He's like Hitler but without any balls, I doubt he like is marshalling an army, not even close" So yeah that was funny.

    So the husband was in Tucson all week. Hoping this week (he has to paint the front and build the steps soon) we can get it on the market. I am going down next week to clean it. But that should be fine honestly. I've organized and cleaned every square foot of this house, I don't know how I did but I'm also doing yoga so I HURT all over, all the time. But whatever, it will benefit me at some future date, I assume. IDK what is up with my back (well probably I do, lifting too many boxes that were too heavy.) All that is left is like, my bathroom to happen shortly.

    They seem to be in a rush to credential me, and my work is being obstructive. I sent the credentialing lady SOME stuff, hopefully they will just give her what she wants without being evil. God knows. I think they are getting close though she rather plaintively sought my help and I was like, "Ugh."

    It's been stressful, disability stuff etc., work, paying bills, house OMG. It looks pretty good I think it should sell. IDK.

    So yeah, I was in kind of a bad place but really now that I have had time to reflect, it's all good. I don't think a fuss will be made by me in any case. I mean.... So the sun rose like every day and I got trolled by an internet demon which happens every second. Since no human likes everyone, let alone me, well, I am very much of the opinion if there is a secret Anna place of hate, have at it, I could care less. When you send me your hate, you also send energy. So, meh, whatever. I'm glad I visited junior high. It was probably helpful for what is to COME OMG I hope WV. Although we are moving WHEREVER away from here.

    So thanks to all of you who reached out via PM it was very kind of you. Sorry this post is so long, although frankly I am DONE apologizing to ECF about what I say or do, although I STILL don't want to go to the shiny thread, even as it's creator. It is filled with too many as:censored:es. Life is too short.

    Otherwise well the husband returns today. I gotta figure out some work stuff frankly and go from there man. Like pick up my work stuff which they REMOVED, consolidated, and boxed already. I am not sure how I feel about that, honestly it's my own personal stuff. THEN we put the house on the market and see what happens, man. Ugh. I better get that job offer but what can I do but wait. Pray. Etc.

    It could all fall into place perfectly although loading a truck twice, and with all my disabilities up in the air? I gotta call SSDI lady I spent 24 bucks faxing and sending the information.

    So nothing all mixey from me I have been consolidating all my real life stuff. I better call her and I am going to do it while cleaning my toilet. I cannot think of a better paring than SSDI and toilet bowl scrubbing.

    Later, and thanks to everyone who was cool.

    Welcome back, Anna! I missed you.

    Are you talking about the red grapefruits from Texas? If so, Costco had them and they are super good!
    My MIL had one from somewhere and thought it was better than a Ruby, so we both put in trees. This will be the Rio Red’s first yielding year. Not that we need more grapefruit... last year was a low yield year, and we still had about 40 dozen Ruby Red grapefruit. That’s really what pink guava reminds me of... fresh pink grapefruit. Probably my fav citrus flavor for recipes

    It's crazy here in CA... all the neighbors have orange trees (but most don't even harvest the oranges) There are still oranges on their trees (going to waste) too late now. There was a time the old guy across the back fence had this big lemon tree loaded with lemons and he said we could pick all we wanted (I miss that) he moved and the tree is long gone. I grew up eating grapefruit and loved them (even though they are tart) 40 dozen... holy cow, I would have brought a ladder and a bucket and picked them all for you (just to get a few dozen)

    Making grilled chops in my Foodi Grill and roasted red potatoes in my regular Ninja Foodi - I love these machines and use them all the time. :D
    We have several devices like that (air fryer, pizza maker, waffle maker... good options on the hot days when you don't want to run the full size oven (could be 103 F tomorrow) I know, that sounds cool to you ;)

    103?? Chilly! :lol: No you're right about using the oven, that is strictly forbidden during the summer!
