    I gave up on ice cream (nothing against it, just that I can use a plain cream and vanilla for different purposes anyway) Going to get (FA) Cream fresh and if anyone can suggest a good vanilla (sometimes add it to my tobacco mix so doesn't need to be very sweet)

    I ordered a FA tobacco pack assortment one time from bcf and to me a lot of their tobacco flavors tasted very similar. SoHo and 7 leaves were stand outs to me.
    I know the smell of Soho FA makes me want to try it, to me it smells like a salted pretzel with caramel.

    A good save... I had a few mixes that were getting old (over 6 months) Boysenberry, blueberry and cheesecake. It's been a long hot summer and besides the heat, they were exposed to light (all my stuff is in a closet and I should close the doors... lesson learned) Anyway, everything was "faded" and turned kinda dark (I assume the nic) Just trying to get rid of the old stuff (mybe should have just thrown it out) I added some lemon and it worked... brightened it up and brought it back to life.
    Anyway, have so much mixing to do this week-end (two bases, 12mg and 9mg) tobacco mix, cheesecake and several recipes...hope I find time. Thanks to ELR calculator and my new scale I hope to bust this out "production" style. Don't care if it's all accurate, just going for it.

    So I have used up my pre-made juices, my many SFTs, and so on. All bottles are 30 to 50 ml and I need to wash them (could easily be 40 bottles) Want to use the dishwasher (it has the rack with vertical "posts" that should work, but need to find a way to keep them from flying off the posts. Maybe a net or something (above them to held them down) and I have zip-ties to hold the net down. Would really be too much work to do them by hand. Any suggestions?

    I just rinse 'em with very hot water. I don't think you need soap.

    I tell you if it's not one thing it's another. I took the wife to the post office and Sam's Club and when we got home I ate something, sat in my recliner and then got the most splitting pain on the whole right side of my head. I put ice on it since it would not go away and that worked and it faded finally. So I took a nap and that helped too. :)

    Get to the cutting!

    I almost caught up, but then I burnt out.

    I had a really busy day and 13 or so folks in my group. But, you know, I think they punish you for illness by like uh, sort of putting 2 days work into one. It's rather frustrating.

    Of COURSE I missed my follow up with my supervisor. Then, I like came home and did a bunch of chores and whatnot. I mean... it's not as though I don't have ALL WEEKEND apparently to go look at houses. What I do not like (on weekends) is like having to look at the outside (to see if we like it enough to look inside) especially in this market. I don't really want to spend the next two days looking at houses and driving around. I would like to rest, and to organize. On weekends, our realtor should make appointments on whatEVER we are interested in, and etc. I mean... we do all the searching and then she "checks" on her MLS and I bet (the good houses) she sells to other people first. I am going to request to be added to MLS so we can at LEAST check ourselves to see if a house is still on the market. She's a bit lackadaisical for me at least in this market. Meh.

    Also, I gotta just MAKE a doctor's appointment SOON honestly.... I feel a lot better but by no means 100% but I did a lot, just because... lots needed to be done.

    I need a vacation from life, I swear. I still feel better than almost ANY day in the past week. Sigh.

    I am glad you all had excellent times mixing and buying and whatnot. I am NOT making more flavor orders I just simply do not NEED to even if something is appealing.

    I plan on sleeping in tomorrow. I may even sleep until 8 and that would be lovely.

    I'd just boil a big pot of water and throw them in there and let them soak then dry...
    but if you really want to use the dishwasher, you could get some baby bottle holders for dishwashers

    or any small basket with a lid
    just be careful with any soap residue leftover....
