Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

After working last night and starting at 4:30am this morning, I am very much enjoying my lazy. The rest of us are carrying the load while DD1 recovers. Her husband has been allowed to help out but only for an hour or two here and there (for now, but that will increase).

We do have one of the part-time folks helping out more. It will be that way until DD1's stress fracture heals, is in less pain and able to move around better. She is, ummm, very VERY testy today, her poor hubs is catching the brunt of it. As are her sister, Mom and I. We told her to cool her jets.

She hates wearing the boot and does not like the crutches. We told her last night, Too Bad. It'll take 2-4 weeks for her stress fracture to heal. And then, she doesn't know it yet, she won't be resuming her normal duties for a while. She will be mad at us, but too bad.

I feel bad for her but she needs to take it really easy or it could give her more problems healing. I wish you could get that through to her.

Evidently I have multiple packages coming today. Somehow my Voltrove rta is out for delivery already as well as My flavor jungle order for the green tea. @FranC I'll be needing a recipe for that green tea.

You want to interrupt my lazy? I’ll make an attempt to find one.

Mom and I have had a couple talks with her. She knows she needs to take it easy. We keep reminding her. This is her first time being stepped on by a horse that's caused this kind of damage. Normally you can anticipate their movements and get out of the way. This horse was spooked suddenly by the cat. It happened very quickly. DD1 is beating herself up for not getting out of the way. We told her, stop being hard on yourself, accidents happen.

Yes, indeed. Accidents do happen.

@hittman I mix the FE Green Tea at .08%. Sometimes got all the way to .1% . It’s typically a gentle flavor that I usually mix with a single fruit, once in awhile I’ll add two flavors.
Since it’s a new to you flavor I would recommend a single light fruit.
Other ideas are , a bit of cream or milk, a bit of mint or menthol, lemon,

@hittman, just as a suggestion, I would go with 0.8% - 1% green tea and then add whatever fruit you want. Start low and add more as desired.

For me, 0.4% - 0.8% is the sweet spot with green tea. Up to 1.2% if you like a bolder tasting green tea.

Off the top of my head; peach, lemon, pomegranate, raspberry, orange, pear, apricot, strawberry, mango, watermelon will work with green tea. Many fruits will work with green tea.

IIRC, you vape a mint flavor at work??? If so, add a little mint to the green tea.

For ideas, here are some I did...

FE Green Tea 0.3%
FA Pear 0.2%

FE Green Tea 1%
FA Strawberry 2%

FE Green Tea 0.8%
FA Apricot 0.7%
VTA White Chocolate 1%

FE Green Tea 1%
FA Blood Orange 0.7%
WF Island Mango 0.5%

Good ideas. I was trying to keep it simple. I would say the most important thing is to mix light so not to overrun the tea.

I also mixed 1% green tea with 0.75% SSA ice cream vanilla. That was a very tasty GT IC.

That’s different.

All this talk of green tea makes me want some to vape (like now!!! LOL).

A green tea milkshake sounds good. Yep!!! Gonna mix that.

And then another GT with a fruit maybe two.

I'm off to mix . . . . . .

I can relate to the frustration of the boot. I've been in mine a month now. But no crutches.

I'll probably go with 1% on the tea since I like strong flavors. I'm thinking maybe SSA guava to start. Maybe .75-1%?

.75 would be best.

The idea here is to have a refreshing vape, not a strong one.

I’m gonna mix that.
