So what are you random folks up to this evening? I’m thinking of doing a couple new mixes in the morning. If I get ambitious enough to label my bottles I probably will :lol:
I'm reflecting. Going to go for a interview for a job that has a 4000 dollar sign on bonus. Most places are doing it because they cannot find any low paid nurses to apply. I'll see what happens Thursday unless my partner talks me out of it. (I'm in a hot spot for covid right now). Catch 22 for sure.

I have bought numerous flavorah flavoring related to a recipe I found or something like that. I always lose the sticky note (I know I need to organize better). I'm still debating the SSA flavoring. A few of them sound good.
I have a running word doc of every recipe that sounds good. I save it to my desktop. When I am ordering I peruse it and anything I decide to keep gets put into E Liquid website and I order the things I need. I could never manage it any other way

HI, Mixers. This is a flyby and a piece of good news about Covid-19 prevention from the Journal of Medical Virology:

Error - Cookies Turned Off

"Nasal rinses and mouthwashes, which directly impact the major sites of reception and transmission of human coronaviruses (HCoV), may provide an additional level of protection against the virus. Common over‐the‐counter nasal rinses and mouthwashes/gargles were tested for their ability to inactivate high concentrations of HCoV using contact times of 30 s, 1 min, and 2 min. Reductions in titers were measured by using the tissue culture infectious dose 50 (TCID50) assay. A 1% baby shampoo nasal rinse solution inactivated HCoV greater than 99.9% with a 2‐min contact time. Several over‐the‐counter mouthwash/gargle products including Listerine and Listerine‐like products were highly effective at inactivating infectious virus with greater than 99.9% even with a 30‐s contact time. In the current manuscript we have demonstrated that several commonly available healthcare products have significant virucidal properties with respect to HCoV."

    Hope things work out the best for you :)

    Good luck--whatever you decide to do!

    I just did a check on ft:
    rda only showed the Bitcoin payment option
    Grub screws, glass, and kanthal wire still allow Paypal

    I have a few drip tips and plastic mixing bottles in my cart, but they've been out of stock for a couple of months now. :lol: :facepalm:

    Any good news is great.

    I have found that some fruit flavors "fade" much more quickly than others (first noticed this with lemon) Now, my kiwi has faded away. Peach (on the other hand) stays forever. Any thoughts on this (which ones fade fast or which ones don't)?
    Lemon is the only big fader to me. Haven’t used kiwi much

    I have had the same experience with citrus flavors--they tend to fade. Of course, for me it's not a big problem because I mix small amounts and I mix very low to begin with.

    My dental hygienist had me rinse with Listerine before he cleaned my teeth a couple of weeks ago. I figured someone had determined it helped.

    All my mixes are 15ml except a few (mainly my cheesecakes).

    I’m going to find out as soon as I mix the kiwi buttermilk ice cream recipe Julia Su posted. It’s very different from what I would normally try but thought I’d give it a shot.

    I read the other thread about FT and PP... I don't understand how they would include wire as a vaping product.
    The piece parts, including a spool of kanthal, were okay, PayPal still accepted.
