I am reading a lot about this lately. Someone else, maybe NolaMel, mentioned that she feels it mutes other flavors. Interesting.
I have two recipes for Barney Rubble and one has more marshmallow then the other. My friend swears she can tell a difference in the two and does not like the one that has more marshmallow. I always felt like she was crazy and was sort of insistent on following the recipe (the one that had more) as I had more trust in the person that listed it.

Marshmallow does mute in high quantities. You only need a very small amount....0.75 or less.

Good morning folks! I have been mixing a bunch. Loaded this with Pur Sweet tobacco with White Chocolate and Cappuccino.

Hi shiny folks ... hope you are all well and hanging in there !!!

Dog and I have many places we regularly go where there are only the simple joys of nature and us. Complete bliss. It's always perfect because we get what I like to call the "super recharge". Today was a trip to Kettle Moraine State Forest. KMSF is a moraine from the ice age of ~2.5 million years ago.

We didn't see any people there today!!! Total solitudinal awesomeness.

On the vape front ... one of the days selections, thus far ...

Svoemesto Kayfun lite '19 with a Steam Tuners tip via the good folks from Creme de Vape. vaping one of my DIY vanilla mixes.

On the cosmic front ... did ya know there are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on any beach, more stars than seconds have passed since Earth formed, more stars than words and sounds ever uttered by all the humans who ever lived? Yep! Gotta love science baby.

Trust the scientists (and doctors) ... it is they who know AND understand truth + fact.

......
...... <peace, love and harmony ya all> ......
......kindness matters......

One scale that is highly recommended is the AWS LB-501 Digital Scale. It's 500 grams max. weight at a .01g. Battery and AC adapter and comes with two (2) 200 grams cal. weights and a spill bowl. I've not had any issues with mine but have only been using for about 2 months.

The AWS LB-501 is the only scale I've ever used for DIY. 10 year warranty too. Very highly recommended!!!

Hey all <3

It's another sinful Sunday in the vape lair.

I'm envious, would much rather be sinful.

 

[Pigs]

not sure if you have or can have amazon prime.here is one way to past the time with simpler times.

Hey thanks @the wind . Looks perfect !

I also love the original 1966 spaghetti western Johnny Yuma - the way those Italian directors from the 60s re imagined the Wild West. The Sergio Leone films obvious classics. Brilliant casting, huge landscapes, and who doesn't love Ennio Morricone's scores.

Any opinions on the Unicorn rda?
@DeloresRose didn't I see you using one in an earlier photo?
I'm thinking of trying it on my Furyan 21700 mech squonker. Might do a test run with a dual round wire build to suss it out before I commit a pair of Killer coils

It's good to go. I am using one with Serial Killer coils on my MDX B@stard stacked mech mod.

He's a young guy in his late 30's I think. My wife and I just found out late last night that the hospital put him on a ventilator. I again implore everyone to take the precautions that the health experts recommend. This is the 2nd close to home incident I've had with Covid 19 the first being a iron worker at a job site of mine testing positive for the virus.

We have a neighbor...43 yo (healthy bike rider/runner, non smoker, healthy weight, no asthma/diabetic etc). Just got weened from the vent. He’s been in for almost two weeks. It’s not just the elderly and those with pre existing conditions. As ex smokers, we’re all at a higher risk.

 

[NolaMel]

that's a real pic?! looks like a screenshot from an ad!__ shiny cotton for a shiny day ?
should we make postcards out of it??

Lol!!!! I wish. Sorry, I’m 57 with a mostly silver bob. Himself has not approved the purchase of the tiara I negotiated with Queen Elizabeth for sadly. Current tiara is either my reading glasses or a baseball cap . I promise not to scar you for life with a picture of me irl.

 

[NolaMel]

Good morning shiners! Just another day if sheltering in place. It’s strange, but it feels like the ceiling is just a few inches lower every day.

Himself announced he was walking down to the bank to drop our mortgage payment in the night box. I about broke speed records getting dressed to go with him. Felt awesome to get out. And weird to only see a few people out and about. I did spot my assigned spot to park tomorrow to claim my grocery order.

 

[NolaMel]

I do not do it as I do not concoct recipes. I just copy and mix others from Alltheflavors and e liquid recipes

I should, but rarely do because I’m a bit lazy and impatient. There are a couple mixers over on the diy thread and ATF whose recipes I know will almost always be loved. Much easier

I don’t know if you can lay an amp on its back without damaging it , but I’d be tempted to put one on an 8 ft ladder pointed to the ceiling. Preferably under their bedroom at 3 am. And crank it up with some lovely heavy metal, 70’s punk... endless choices. Or maybe Tchaikovsky 1812 overture (preferably the one with actual cannons).

I'm one that can taste marshmallow as low as .25% and don't like it at all. Meringue works out much better for me as an unobtrusive light sweetener or to boost mouthfeel. Might be the same for your friend. I use Purilum .25-1% but from what I've read FA meringue is pretty similar in taste & weight.

I can’t taste MM, but I can tell the difference between a mix with it and a mix without. But maybe I’m weird. There are flavors I can’t taste at all - cranberry, tea - and some I can taste no matter how little there is.

Hard to explain but MM mutes parts of flavors rather than the whole, or the whole mix. It just takes the high notes down a bit.

I had to stop at walgreens after work Friday on not one employee was wearing gloves or masks. Most places around here the employees are all wearing gloves and some are using masks as well. Have only seen one shopper with a mask on anywhere.

I have not seen one mask. I don’t go out though, once a week to the PO and the little mom and pop store.

Today I saw a man with two little kids, one on a tricycle, one on a little bike with training wheels, walk to the Dollar store. They must’ve been about 3-4-5 years old. WTH was he thinking, taking those tots out?
Take them for a walk, sure. But the store? Why?

still sounds i got too much. we'll see: i only smoked like 15, 16, 17 maybe 18 years_ my tongue is a bed of flowers compared to most here i'm guessing, might can hear the petals better
