Lol! Mine is totally embarrassing too. I’d have to use a fake background or something, [emoji38]
Now you spill the beans! :D Was wondering where your picture was. ;)

Honestly all my stash mods, atty's and parts are in the boxes they came in and in rubbermaid containers in the basement. I rotate stuff in and out weekly. Nowhere near Shawn's collection - not even close.

My DIY stuff is also in rubbermaid boxes in the basement (except the nic and VG/PG). When I make something I grab what I need and haul it upstairs to the kitchen table.

So, it seems I still have a possum and the cats have known the whole time. It just came out to eat some dry cat food and June just watched. Guess I'll call it Joe. Have a feeling that the one living in the outside garbage can is a sibling, I'll call it Jolene. Mama must have died.:(
Going to have to apologize to poor George, he's been a suspect in the case of "how the hell did that get knocked off the counter".

Most is in boxes for the stash but I have about 30 tanks on display and usually 6-7 lying around to rotate. I’m inspired to clean up well enough to post a photo[emoji4]

Only one lemon so far, and it was already in my stash - CAP Italian lemon Sicily - just unloved til now ;)

Squirted some into my ice cream base and it's spot on. I want a sweet lemon curd sort of taste, which it has.

Mixed: 3.5% cap Italian lemon Sicily, 4% cap VBIC, 2% cap whipped cream
That recipe looks good...copied...thank you!:)

How many P's did you order? I lost track. :confused:

3 a silver mini, the green/blue fade 2.5 and a blue P3

I lose track of what I buy too!! The seller has put more Provaris up for sale and I’m trying hard not to buy another one. They look beautiful esp the silver metal ones.

I need a restraining order on myself!! Or a straight jacket :shock: !!

I got scared mine would get too hot whilst waiting seemingly forever for the negative ends to shrink up! I think I need to redo them, I don’t recall the shrinking taking SO long when I rewrapped before
I'm not sure, but I think it took close to an hour, which seems way too long. I thought perhaps my ancient, cheap hair dryer wasn't powerful enough, but it was certainly hot enough for me to need gloves.

As I said, the positive end still ended up wonky, even after all that time. Maybe I'll work on it some more tomorrow. It would be nice not to have to remember to use the battery only in the JAC.

Oh wow, yes that’s an awfully long time! And I thought my 3 minutes or so was bad!

    You are very welcome - just don't become like me and only like ice cream mixes :lol:

    My mission for this year is to find ONE mix I like that isn't an ice cream :rolleyes:

    Zazie, just take your hair dryer, on high, to the "slight ridge" of the wrap and it will smooth out. It'll then work in the Colossal too. When I do one I put the dryer on the highest hottest setting and it takes moments for it to shrink wrap itself around the battery.
    As I said a second ago, I was at it for almost an hour, hair dryer on high the whole time. It really could be the hair dryer's fault, though. It's thirty years old and was cheap to begin with. Only 1250W. But the rest of the battery is snug and smooth, so I don't know.

    I use about 60mg of nicotine a day. That is 21,900mg per year. At that rate, 9.5 liters of nicotine would last me over 43 years, which would last me until I was 87. In other words if I bought that much when I was 1 year old, in '75, I would be using the last of it today.
    I get it already! You're a spring chicken! Stop showing off!

    God, kids today . . .

    I just took a look at our hair dryer and it's 1875 watts and on the highest setting it only takes maybe a minute. I don't use a towel or anything I just avoid my fingers.

    View attachment 816733 I received the Provaris today and I was kind of bummed because I don’t have the batteries I ordered. I put an 18650 in the P3 and it works. So I guess it works w flat top batteries- cool!

    Of course I have no idea how to use it but I did download a manual. I guess I’ll be fooling with it and asking all kinda of noobie questions lol!
    Where's mine, darn it all!

    Too late...I've been hung on vanillas and creams for quite some time. Butterscotches, vanillas and creams. Used to be into fruits a lot but my sense of taste changed.

    Here's one for you it's a nice creamy vanilla. One of my favorites. Simple.

    FA Vanilla Classic/Madagascar 3.5%
    FA Vienna Cream 1%
    INW Shisha Vanilla 1.25% or 8 drops
    FLV Cream 0.6% or 4 drops

    It's not too sweet but if you want sweeter just up the Vienna Cream in 0.5% increments till you get it where you like it. Also if you want more pronounced vanilla double up the Shisha Vanilla (it doesn't have tobacco in it btw).

    I need to order more from Bull City hopefully they run a sale this weekend.
