Random DIY mixing and More

[hittman]

Tomorrow is my son’s 21st birthday. Mom is making him (us) lunch tomorrow of salmon patties and stewed potatoes and she made him his favorite spice cake. In the morning I’m going to blow up a bunch of balloons and scatter them everywhere then give him his gift/money/card. We are not having a party due to Covid. I made his favorite meals yesterday and today. That 21 years flew by! And sometimes it didn’t....

Happy Birthday to him. My youngest will turn 21 this August.

Well it’s definitely Monday. I went downstairs to mix another 10ml bottle of jack the ripple because I’m just not sure how much I like it. I pulled out case number one about halfway through mixing and evidently I didn’t get one side snapped shut all the way last time I used it and about 20 flavors fell on the floor. I had to look up each flavor for that side on my list to put it back in the correct slot. What a pain.

What are stewed potatoes?

What are stewed potatoes?

Russet potatoes quartered and boiled until soft. Then add s/p, butter, and evaporated milk and heat until thickened. So good!

Could you at least sort your list by location number to make the task easier?

Good question

They sound it. Mashed potatoes without the mashing.

I’ve done the same. Major pain.

I could but my working list is in alphabetical order. Might not be a bad idea to sort it by case and bin location and print a second list in case it happens again.

My .65 ohm coils came today from HC finally after a lovely tour of Texas. No declaration of what it is. Just two stickers: made in China, and time sensitive material. Cali return address. Wrapped in tons of padding.

And? Have you tried them? What do you think? BTW, they are back is stock at HC.

I meant that I went to take a screenshot of the email they sent me.

Woops... thought you meant the recipe someone posted.

Hiya Mixers! I'm so hopelessly behind, again... Trying to catch up--it's hopeless.
My Kroma Z has been stuck in Compton for 3 days. NN messed up my order--never happened before in all those years I've been buying from them. Sent an email, no response yet.

 

[vaper1960]

Also considering (TFA) Jamacian rum for that recipe (the butterscotch apple pie one)
For pina colada going to use that AND (VT) light rum. My wishlist is getting longer

Hey, Pretty Bird You’re first Z?

A very first one. I was so sure I'd have it by now.

I find the Jamaican Rum too sweet. I like the VT Light Rum.

I will hope for tomorrow

Exactly! They are creamy and delicious.

Sorry about the great great grandfather. How do you stay on guard? I think it happens spontaneously...

There are certain things you can do to lessen the chances of combustion.
