    Don't sell yourself short kiddo. ;) I've made plenty of good mixes by adding a drop or two of this and three of that and a couple of whatever to nic base.

    However long ago, everything I learned about teas came from you. :)

    So there! :thumb:
    Everything I learned about teas came from Katya also. I am liking the white tea with my IC base.

    I still have room in my divider but have yet to think of another mix. This week I can have a mixing Saturday if I wish. Dd will be gone to a craft fair and SIL will be taking the young one to his ball game. My plan so far is to pour the rest of my creamy custard into another bottle so I can mix another 120ml. Plus I will have a couple nic base bottles to fill which requires the kitchen.

    A little house stuff and another coffee. Hopefully after that I can get to mixing,
    A little house stuff, argh. o_O Today I decided to open the closet from hell. It was my wife's storage for all her crafts and yarn and OMG, stuff, stuff and more stuff. Who knew one closet could hold so much, not me, until today. I spent most of the day in there and I only got through 1/2 of it. Good heavens.

    I gathered up all the yarn and needle thingamabobs and took those to an old age home that's a few blocks from my house. My trunk and back seat were full. They were more than happy to take it all for the women who still do the knitting and crochet things. Lady asked me "are you sure you want to get rid of all this". :facepalm: Yes woman, I am certain.

    That’s such a good thing to do. I’m sure it will be much appreciated by those women.

    I know I have to stop doing iffy mixes. I used to have pretty good luck with them but not so much lately and I’m dumping too much.
    I'm trying to be more picky with mixes too. Maybe I will start doing the questionable ones minus nic even though I taste a difference with vs without. Thinking if I'm able to mix something I like then nic can easily be added. I don't like dumping mixes with nic but the duds are the duds.

    I forgot to mention I did fill the ice cream tea this morning and I’m liking it way more than I thought I would:thumbs:
    I tried mine earlier too. It's good. Now I'm trying to decide what fruit to add to it.

    Yes, but I have a big problem with that because everything tastes flat to me without nic. So even good mixes wouldn’t taste good.

    Also tried my green tea, apricot and white chocolate mix. The white chocolate is really good with green tea and apricot. It brings some nice creaminess and that familiar white choc taste. Apricot adds it's thing and some nice juiciness. It's a fairly low level of sweetness. I will let that one steep for a while to let the white chocolate settle in.

    I mixed the white tea with white chocolate and cranberry.

    I agree. Same for me when I've tried mixing without nic before. Maybe I'll mix with half the nic for the iffy ones. I just hate dumping any nic. I have plenty of nic but that stuff is like gold nowadays.

    Yes, and that’s my reason to lighten up on iffy stuff.

    I’m not sure as yet how much I like vaping apricot but I think pineapple is growing on me a bit.
    I'm trying to stay away from strawberries and other berries for a while. Was starting to get burnt out on those. I have plenty of other fruits I like so need to use those more.

    I knew you had to have something going at BCF. You've been too quiet lately with flavoritis. :D
