Waving Hi to you great folks from my iPad. :) Can I get a Hi. ????
Hi, Fran :)
Your dinner sounds good :thumbs:

I did mix up a tester for that Vanillakill mix. Seven vanillas, two bakeries for a bit of variety, a meringue and a dash of sweet.
It smells very... uh... vanilla.

Well, the first of my old PC's ready to go. Took many days but a lot of that was figuring out how to do it.

Learned a whole bunch. Had to go into the BIOS and delete a corrupted temporary drive that was set up by my first failed Win install attempt. Until I did that the Win install just went into an endless wait. Also stumbled across 2 hidden drives full of bloatware from MS and Dell and deleted them. Now it won't get any of those annoying pop-ups from Mcafee and the rest.

Had a fight with MS about MS accounts. It wouldn't let me complete the install without signing in with a MS account. Did that with my own account then wandered through a maze to persuade MS to let me set up a local account and remove all traces of my MS account, with endless warnings about what I would lose by doing that. Bunch of other stuff like deleting the Wi-Fi Id and other bits and pieces. Couldn't have done it without Google.

The second PC should go a lot faster.

Got so absorbed in it that I missed the BCF sale yet again.

    I tried so many times to make a good vanilla recipe. One of my favorite premixes when I started vaping was Vanilla. Never even got close. Let us know how it goes.

    I present it as a joke, but that recipe did start out serious and I did think a bit about each flavor in it.
    I wouldn't be surprised if there is some incompatibility in there though.

    If I end up thinking it's pretty good, or if I can prune it down to be so, I'll definitely post it here.

    I did use a couple of more "specialty" flavors in it, Liquid Barn Vanilla Ice Cream and Gremlin/Gremberry Farms Vanilla Overload.

    I've only tested a couple of mixes so far where I've used the Overload, but I'm taking a shine to it.

    Hi, Fran and everyone. I'm staying a bit cooler, 90's instead of 100's today and tomorrow. Sunday back up to 106*, yuck. I only go outside early!
    Hi misswish1 :) Yikes. 100’s are horrible. Don’t blame you for only going out early.

    Talking about vanilla got me to thinking about my recent test of Cinful Cookie Crunch, where I thought the vanilla note was hogging the spotlight so had written up a V2 to adjust the cinnamon aspect some.
    Well, I went and got myself all wound up to mix something so just mixed that.

    Good morning to you Kat. :banana: :banana: Any plans for today?
    1. Drink coffee :banana:
    2. Vape my Franana :banana::banana:
    3. ? :banana::banana::banana:

    I'm sure we'll end up throwing the itty-bitty in the pool at some point(s) but dunno when and the guessers say rain/storms so there could be some oh no run in the house moments (like yesterday)

    Morning, mixers.

    At least we're still cooling off a bit overnight, so have a chance to pull that air inside and get a jump on the heat.Claim is mid 90s for Seattle, South Sound (us) warmer...

    Might rain again by August. Oh, wait, that's usually our driest month!

    Well, I went and got myself all wound up to mix something so just mixed that.

    What, not enough testers? ;)
