Got a massive compliment today
submitted over 10 years ago by texasstr

I'm stoked!!

Early this week, I roasted my freakshow and a battery because the lock on my stingray wasn't fully engaged. I fixed it enough to limp through for a few days but I finally begged the hubby to stop in town on the way home from work today and pick me up a new atty.

While in the B & M, the hubs was tinkering with a broken mod that the shop guru had given up on and discussing what atty he should get me. (He fixed the mod and shopguy sold it to him for five bucks. )The whole while, filling the shop with the scents of my home brew juice.

I chose a random OB clone Recipe and tinkered with it until it smelled correct and the numbers came out to the magic 13% that is his favorite. Threw it in a 10 ml bottle and gave it a vigorous heat bath for about 24 hours. He tasted this concoction last night and said it's OB without the funky maple aftertaste and he asked... nay, ordered that I make more pronto.

So in this shop, he starts drawing a crowd with the smell of it and suddenly there are four shop folk asking to taste it. He said I got rave reviews! He came home, kissed me, handed me my shiny new Derringer and related his tale of my success. He also said a coworker wants a bottle now, and a refill once a week from now until eternity.

edit Posted the recipe in the clone thread. Sorry for the delay. The illness knocked me flat for a few days. >.<

TL;DR-- They like me! happy dance

Lol yo don't black out & wake up in your bed in the afternoon with a pile of puke in the middle of your sheets, that you somehow neatly folded up and placed under your bed in your blacked out stupor after vomiting. Been there, done that. Last thing I remembered was winning a duel outside orgrimmar...

Forgive my ignorance, but what does the OB stand for? Would you link to the clone recipe that you based it on?

I honestly can't remember which site I got the original recipe from. I didn't even write it down I went to the kitchen and pulled out the ingredients and redid the ratios myself because the original had about 25% flavor and that is way way too much for either of our palettes. OB stands for suicide bunny original bunny. Was my husband's go to flavor until the B & M near us stopped selling it because of the ingredient scandal.

I got my first compliment last night too. It was with a crappy little standalone flavor too.
