Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

I'm still using out of the first liter that I ever bought. I haven't been mixing that long and never used to keep much on hand and used to buy smaller quantities. I don't remember how old it is but bought it long before I had a freezer to put my nic in. I bottled it in 100ml bottles and got one out the other day and it was kind of an amber color. Fairly dark but it was most likely dark when I put it in the freezer. It sat in my basement cabinet for quite some time. I have a couple of clear bottles that I bottled last year and put in the freezer right away and it's as clear as water. It's actually surprising how long a liter of nic lasts.



Good luck. Try to stay safe.

The 250ml bottle I took out of the freezer was dated 2013 and clear as a bell.

I got about 1400ml of base mixed. I'm sure the servpro people going in and out thought I was some kind of druggie.

Nice. That is good to hear. What brand of nic is it?

Where do you get the PEG400 from?

I got a small bottle from Amazon to test it out then I go two gallons from River Supply. It's holding up fine, for some reason it was dirt cheap.

I am through with half of it.

I'm pretty sure mine got dark because I didn't have it stored in a refrigerator or freezer. My wife didn't want it in the kitchen refrigerator. After I explained what was going on with deeming last year she was supportive of me getting the small freezer for nic and storing it in the basement.

Good morning mixologist. I woke up with difficulty. It's kinda annoying because it is "do it or die' day but if I'm not awake I won't get anything done man. Ugh. Well. we shall see.

So yeah, the husband is cutting up old furniture so it can go in the trash bag that the trash people will come get I think. I feel very guilty but if I don't wake up I am WORTHLESS!

Plus I gotta get up at 5 to like deal with going to see my pdoc I might have to institute that practice again. Holy goodness.

How much nic did you end up getting, Fran?

I still have several 250ml bottles of 60mg nic from years ago plus a newer liter of 100mg. I haven't bought anything recently and have no plans to.

 

[FranC]

OK, next on my list is wash out bottles.

This is the first recipe I've officially posted to this thread. It's a tweaked version of something I came up with for our game a while back.

Champagne Cocktail
0.50% Back Bar Bitters (Flavorah)
1.00% Blood Orange (Natural) (FW)
1.00% Brandy (FA)
1.00% Brut Bubble Wine (Flavorah)
1.00% Shisha Orange (INAWERA)
1.00% SugarDaddy (Reg) (Rick's)
0.75% WS-23 30%

To me, it's a very pleasant, lightly flavored vape.

I found out last night that our neighbors of 20 years that we've become friends with are moving. They've always been somewhat secretive about their personal life but I was blown away last night when my wife showed me a group text from my neighbor's wife saying that they were moving. I just saw the husband Monday when he came over to borrow something and didn't say a word. We're not best friends or anything but usually see each other and talk about once a week. We have helped each other with things over the years and sometimes we will pick up each others lawn chemicals and he always uses my spreader. To be honest it kind of made me mad. I just hope whoever buys the house does half as good at taking care of the place as they have. I'm not planning on it since I only have about seven years left on my mortgage but maybe we'll move some day too.

People are funny. Our neighbor of 17 years back in Miami had the audacity to be one of the police officers in the infamous Miami River Cop case. We never would have guessed... birthday parties together, I played with his 7 kids, and my father even helped him add a second level to his house. The only clue we had that something was up was when he went from driving an old beat up 1970 Ford Mustang to sporting a brand new Gucci Cadillac. I didn't even know what Gucci was back then...

When a man borrows another man's spreader a bond is formed. Before they leave I would tell him your wife is making strawberry preserves for the people that buy their house.

He and I have always gone together to rent verticutters and would overseed our lawns at the same time. He would often call me when he was going to get fertilizer or something and we would share weed killer we mixed and stuff. Like I said we weren't best friends but were definitely friendly. I understand that they want to move to a ranch house for their final house but thought it was crappy he didn't say anything Monday when I talked to him. Oh well. I just hope the new neighbors are ok. We have had some bad ones over the years on our street. There's a nice two story with a two car garage on the front and a tandem garage on the back on the corner from us. The people that lived there years ago let it go to foreclosure and a family bought it cheap on auction. They turned it into a real trash pit. Luckily they only stayed a few years and the people that live there now take good care of it.

Bottles are washed and they are drying before I put them away. The ones that are going to get remixed get no wash. I guess the ones to remix will be the first I do because one is my old ADV and another is 3B Cheesecake which I love. I may wait til tomorrow to mix those.
