    Is there really a thing of owning too much vape gear :lol: !

    Seriously though, I developed a chronic illness over a decade ago and no longer can do many things from traveling, skiing and horseback riding to simple things like going out to eat. So when I found vaping it became a hobby and something that I loved to do and most of the time I’m physically able to do.

    It had been a long time since I had found something I enjoyed “doing” and being interested in. So in my head I figure it still doesn’t make up for over a decade of mostly being a shut in but I love it and it keeps me busy. I’ve met so many awesome people here that I enjoy so it’s given me a social outlet as well.

    Sometimes I have to remind myself why it’s ok to own so much gear and spend money on it and not feel guilty. Must be the catholic school girl in me lol! Guilt Guilt Guilt!!!

    Vaping has become so much more for me than not smoking cigarettes and I appreciate all of you here for the comradeship, the help especially when I was a newcomer and just being here to share with :wub: !!

    Have a great night everyone;)

    Well said! All this, plus, my collection has not had a single negative impact on anyone else. It’s not a problem for me, it’s not a problem for anyone, so it is not too much.

    Is great that you have identified the source and help manage it. Im sure the relief is tremendous!

    Dropping sugar/carbs has improved life long gastro issues and totally changed my attitude. Very quickly after starting cranky old lady is Now mostly sweetheart. I was beginning to worry about myself lol

    I need to eat better. My dietary habits are disastrous. I have been working on getting my sodium intake under control, which wasn’t too hard once I learned the key to that is to avoid any food I don’t make myself, as from scratch as possible.

    No way I’d do keto though. I know so many people have success with it, but all that fat and meat would kill me.

    Amman born and raised... mediterranean among other things (despite the lifelong blockade between us the sea and me)
    though i know you meant the graeco-latin side, the less mainstream side (pasta like( of which i keep getting surprised by how similar it is to us ... half my childhood sweets seem to have a greek cognate

    i must admit to the olive oil... i consume about up to a liter a month alone, and that's with the german complaining.

    Hey all, hope everyone is safe and well <3 I've been in full hunker mode since last week catching up on stuff around the house and binging media like a fiend. I was considering another RCM mech but wasn't certain about which until I saw this.

    Looks pretty good all finished. What color, though? I could have them do pretty much anything with it but that base olive green does look appropriate for the design.

    I like it as is personally. Of course I'm sipping whiskey laced hot tea so perceptions may be slightly impaired.

    we call it labaneh_ to the wolrd it'd probably be like cheese (though to my mind it's more like a kind of yogurt). the rounded ones are usually dryer and harder to begin with, the dippie stuff ranges from creamy to crumbly depending...

    Strained yogurt - Wikipedia

    that was a fancy schmancy pic though
    this is how it looks back home:

    and this is the dippier stuff

    afternoon all.
    a wee update.
    what many of you have been suggesting i insist on has come to fruition. i am a remote worky person as of about 30 minutes ago. stupid number of backups lay in various locations and I've prepped folk as much as i could.
    my institution's devotion to MS and my avoidance of them will mean some jumping through hoops but i enjoy a challenge. mostly.
    vape news? panels still enjoying the hospitality of HK.
