    I washed out a Nauti GT and I’m going to try my Amaretto mix. Not sure what to expect. Like it or dump it I guess.
    No love for this one. I’ll give it a little more time before I head for the sink.

    TY and I I'm really sorry to hear this. I hope your dialysis goes well and does what it is supposed to.

    THANKS - So do I . . . :facepalm: As of course - I hope everything goes well for "You" too . . . :)

    Have they discussed a transplant?

    No, no discussion of transplant - nor do I think that is an option for "Me" with too many other health problems, especially heart . . . Only discussion right now was do nothing (very debilitating and painful), go on Dialysis (uncomfortable & Change of Quality of Life - 3/4 days a week attached to a machine at a center approximately 4 or more hours each time), or go to Hospis . . .

    But we will see what happens, GOOD THING IS - with the diuretics I'm taking now and limiting liquid intake since I been out of the hospital; I've dropped a HUGE amount of water weight twice (in hospital loss 25 lbs - regained within a week, new diuretic program at home loss what I gained and still losing) - so within 3 weeks total Water Weight lost so far 45 lbs. . . . :thumbs:

    BTW: One of my older sisters was also diabetic (Type1) and finally had to go on Dialysis for approximately 5 years before nothing left to do and she died (July 4th weekend 2 years ago) . . . Thankfully, her husband took care of her and she was able to have Dialysis in their home . . .

    Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:

    Sounds like you have it pretty well figured out.
    Bout to I reckon. Gotta settle out in my mind what it is and make an order for the flavors I don't have. I dont know how I missed this juice. Never thought about it I guess or didn't know it was out there. A new favorite for sure now.

    Heya Fran
    I think when you go to mix my honeysuckle mix...
    I don't think it would hurt it a lot if you didn't use the marshmallow - I know you don't like things too sweet. Not that this is sweet, but you could still add it if you decided you would want it.
    Know what I mean ?

    Yup....I just had this feeling :) I don't really do alcohol flavours or tobacco....I don't drink and I don't smoke so why would I need the flavours in vapes?? Of course...in the beginning tobacco flavours were a must :)

    I mixed it once with the vanilla swirl instead of marshmallow...thought it was good for a while and then it was just like...this isn't what I wanted - too...heavy?
    I think it would be better just going without the marshmallow rather than trying to think of a substitute.

    I actually like several boozy flavors but I don't like the taste of amaretto at all in that mix.

    Mine just finished steeping. It’s good, but I think you could do your tweeking magic and have a winner. The lemon and blackberry marry well together

    Thanks, Mel :) I wrote it down. I'll see what I can mangle.

    Somewhere between here and there
    I’m trying Charlie’s strawberry custard that I subbed the strawberry on before I got the wild strawberry. It’s ok but the tfa strawberry is a bit weak in it. I have another bottle steeping mixed with the Inw but it’s not ready yet. I am working on a review that I’ll post in a little while.

    Big age difference from oldest to youngest.
    I'm the oldest of 7, difference from me to youngest is 19 years, I'll be 75 in a month and he will be 56 in a few months.
    There’s 25 years between me and my sister. Only two my father has. She and my daughter are only 15 months apart.

    @Uncle
    I am absolutely breaking into bits reading your posts.
    I love you.

    HEY YOU - That is not at all my intention when I post this stuff . . . However, the "LOVE" - "You" share is always accepted, especially from such a wonderful woman as you are . . . So right back at Ya' Lady . . .

    My mom had seven brothers and sisters. My grandparents had four, stopped for several years then had four more. There were several years between the youngest and oldest. My uncle was 94 when my mom was 72.
    My stepmoms family was like that. Her parents had two boys before the war, then the two girls after he came back from Europe.

    Amarreto is a very strong bitter almond taste so best used with something sweet added as in the Amarreto biscuits from Italy...but I know you don't do sweet.
