Morning ( my evening) Karen! Question, how do I find you and the contests on fb??

BTW conrats Top!!

 

[etherealink]

etherealink - How about raspberry/white chocolate/waffle?
mango/raspberry (or pomegrante)/peach/champagne?
You can make a lot from your flavor list.

I'm not familar with TFA flavors. I've heard their marshmellow, whipped cream, vanilla swirl were good in mixes.

PIZZA??? Tell me how you mix that. I don't see beer or pineapple on your list.
FA has a chili (tobasco) flavor. I can think of some interesting things with that.

This is the reciepe I wanted (5ml);
1 drop FA Vienna Cream
1 drop FA Vanilla Classic
1-2 drops FA Irish Cream
(and I'm adding coconut)

Hey Aik-

I wanted to be on my couch to say this right lol.

The Belgian waffle has a distinct cinnamon and nutmeg feel to it and is a great standalone (it overpowered the white chocolate and was made too dense and heavy with bittersweet chocolate) but the white choc-raz was great with champagne (Cupid's blend).

The peach/mango with champagne makes a crisp champagne punch (still working on the "bubbly" feeling) and the pomegranate makes a smooth and decadent pair with the bittersweet chocolate (think fondue).

I have not tried the marshmellow, whipped cream, or vanilla swirl, but they are on my list

The pizza is a very complex blend that has issues separating the sausage and Italian seasoning (oregano, thyme and rosemary are noticeable) but I think needs an additive to dissect and really enjoy.

Speaking of the jalapeño flavor, I am only looking for a few flavors and I can make a family favorite "Bloody Weasel" type of fresh made Bloody Mary mix which may be bad but just fun lol.

The french vanilla from TPA is a very complex and musky flavor but is better in a mix and the Irish Cream could stand a small bit of cream to pull down the bite of semi-Bailey's in the exhale. I can see that being a very enjoyable flavor - comments if you get it to work!!

I will update on all the flavors as singles and my experience in a mix when I get a chance.

I'm going to have to miss out as well. Too much drama in my life already. . .

Sorry I haven't been posting much lately. Same old song. Still not smoking. Still embracing the suck.

Hope you're all doing well on your journeys, I'm trying to come out on the other side of this funk I've been in for months and months. Some days are better than others.

See you later!

I just had a girlfriend of mine come over to get help with her new ecig setup. I am happy to hear she is trying vaping but I wish she had called me for help before she started buying stuff. She got herself one of those clone 650 ego/evod setups with charger. Some non branded and unspecified mix of a Marlboro named clear juice to use. Wanted to know why it does not work, says she charged it. It was dead.

So I hooked her up with a couple of spinners and some of my 24ml juices and a couple of 18ml. She is still in the stage where all she wanted was a tobacco flavor. She did try a few other flavors and took a couple of the fruity ones and a peaches and cream and a waffles that I had. I showed her how to change and clean the heads on the Evods and gave her a 510 atty and drip tip so she can try flavors.

I am so happy that she called me and took the time with me to learn about her equipment and try some flavors. She did have 2 cigarettes while she was here. I was surprised that the smoke smell did bother me. Not in a way that I wanted one. More of a bad smell that was getting to me.

I hope this will help her with quiting smoking. Told her to call me with any questions, any time. Wrote down a couple of websites to check out and of course how to get here. We will see how she does.

My other friend Rich is still using the little cigalikes and refilling the tiny cartridges with juice I gave him. He, too, only wants tobacco flavor and no sweet taste at all. But he is also still smoking. Just not as much as before.

Tobacco mixed with other taste worked best for me at the start. Cherry Tobacco, chocolate tobacco, honey tobacco, vanilla tobacco. I got the harshness of tobacco mixed with something else. Killer Juice does his tobacco to mimic the smoke taste not the leaf taste. BIG difference in how well it works.

Yup, no Facebook for me (while I readjust my tin foil sun bonnet). Although, my resolve is weakening.......

Congrats Top, in case I forgot to say it. Great win!

Thx for checking in although I'm sorry to hear your in a funk. Sounds like you need to hear a few good jokes. You might want to ck out the other PIF chit chat forum. Missed you.

Nope, the contest thing is not for the computer access challenged. Did you ever get your computer fixed? It's also not for the time challenged either. I look at it once a day and see if there's something I'm interested in, as in might buy anyway, then enter. Then unfollow everything so I don't get notifications. I doubt my chances are good. I don't want to take the time to fiddle with setting up a seperate page.

Anyway, hope your funk lifts. Good job vaping through it all. Embrace the Suck!

No Facebook for me yet, but my 83-year-old mother seems to enjoy it.

If your into checking out different lines of eliquids, FB is the way to go! That's what the bulk of the contests are for. Definatley set up a dummy page that's used for nothing else and use a fake name; Shari R Vape, etc. That won't affect winning. It's always fun to win and can be a real budget booster too. My internet is too buggy, slow and I'm not interested in PG premixed juice. Right now the odds are high of winning. I imagine as word passes around that'll change. Get it while it's still good.

Don't tell me she like bingo too. That'll really make me feel old.

Nice hearing from you. What have you been up to? Vacations, marriage, dancing ....

I miss you! Where ya been?

Nah, my mom never liked bingo...but her mother loved it and I used to take her once a week! If that doesn't make you feel old nothing will.

I haven't been up to much of anything except working. They screwed around with my schedule until I'm now working 3 weekend midnight shifts out of 5, which really screws with my sleep. None of these young whippersnappers want to work weekends, so I'm now working 4 out of my 5 shifts on the weekend.

I have been lurking and following the thread, but I think I had a case of the "Michigan blizzard/polar vortex blues" and when the conversation went to coil building a while back I had absolutely nothing to contribute and felt sorta left out. I had been contemplating rebuilding for a while, so I finally got off my .... and ordered an Omega clone RDA and an EHPro Kayfun Lite + to see what all the fuss was about. My very first attempt resulted in a working 1.4 ohm microcoil with cotton wicking. I can't believe how easy it is! I enjoyed the Kfl + so much I immediately ordered another one and for the past 2 weeks I've used nothing else. My ProTanks have been unceremoniously retired.

P.S. It's great to be back and I'd like to belatedly welcome all newcomers to this thread.

 

[Thayamax]

I miss you! Where ya been?

I've missed you, too! I see that you spend most of your time on Facebook contests now. You're gonna have to move to a bigger place if you keep up that winning pace.

I am here everyday, just like you don't have much to say about rebuilding yet. I will catch up eventually, GOtta get the money I want to try a Kayfun. I love my drippers but I can't rebuild them yet. I want a tank system. Not sure about cotton I think that is too much fussing having to replace the coton often, what are you using?

MAybe I'll get lucky and win a Kayfun or Russian , I can hope for it

Glad to see you!!!!!!!!!

 

[aikanae1]

I gotta find a picture that expresses what I think about rebuilding. Words can't quite do it.

Meanwhile I just ordered a bunch of creams and vanilla's from FA. The VZ and NN didn't quite hit the spot in that area. Still working on my first masterpiece.

Maybe i'll trade juice for coils.

Make a group for that! I bet you would make out well!
