Yes I definitely own like 4 different kinds of thermometers... and a bunch of random baking related ingredients too.One thing you need to make hard candy that most people don't have in their kitchen is a candy thermometer. But I think you probably have one.
Plus the ocean itself is unforgiving. My sister almost drowned at the beach… twice.I feel like everything in Australia wants to kill you. Also, I find the ocean much scarier than land... who knows what's down there waiting for a snack to swim by.
The ocean does two things for me. Brings incredible peace and shows me how as a human just how inconsequential we are. A mere speck of dust in the atmosphere. Very humbling.Plus the ocean itself is unforgiving. My sister almost drowned at the beach… twice.
Thread participants get samples right?Thanks for being considerate. Yeah Crohn's plus ulcerative colitis is a bitch. I've been completely off all medication for almost a year I think now. I almost had to get the colonoscopy bag once, but thankfully i recovered in the nick of time during one hospital visit.
Instead of OTC stuff I watch my diet and self medicate. I made my first edible two months ago and I found that it made me feel like I never even had Crohn's. Not only did it not cause pain, which can happen from eating almost anything, it gave my intestines this intense warming feeling that was bliss.
I think I'll make a thread detailing the recipe and link it here. I'm making a batch tonight actually.
Peanut butter balls sound awesome!!!

I'll put something together here soon for recipe details. I'm taking pictures of my process in tonight's batch.
I'm excited, going to make themflavored.
I went a little overboard when I ordered flavors and got near all of them lol
Did she get caught in a riptide?Plus the ocean itself is unforgiving. My sister almost drowned at the beach… twice.
I had the same thing happen to me in the water when I was surfing in Costa Rica. The beach we were at was also a certified turtle sanctuary so at dusk you got to watch all the mama turtles come up on shore and lay their eggs in the sand. So Cool........Sea turtles kind of look like dinosaurs when they break the water. The first time I saw one was a WHAT-THE-FUCK?? oh, it's a turtle moment.
In May off of Navarre Island on the west coast of Florida, the entire island turns off all outside lights at night for the turtle hatch. One of the coolest things I have ever seen. Not to mention the unsullied view of the sky sans the lights.I had the same thing happen to me in the water when I was surfing in Costa Rica.

That has to be such an epic sight!!! It was kind of sad in a way because even though Costa Rica is very environmentally friendly the local government had allowed cabinas and little hotels to be built right along the shore so as cool as it was it was kind of bittersweet watching a bunch of tourists gawking at the turtles from the comfort of the beach bar sipping their Imperials. You know what happens next........In May off of Navarre Island on the west coast of Florida, the entire island turns off all outside lights at night for the turtle hatch.

Don't worry, it will all be under water, soon enough.That has to be such an epic sight!!!

I haven't been back to that part of Costa Rica in 20 years but a friend of mine was there a year ago and told me it's all multi story hotels with paved streets and everything. Sad to think about how beautiful that whole area was......
I took my wife and 12 year old on a 4x4 adventure in Costa Rica about 30 years ago. I rented a 4x4 and after studying maps and guide books We landed in San Jose got our Izuzu pickup and headed out....Stopped on the East Coast for a 4 day trip up a long 100 mile canal to Tortuguero national park. We stayed in a small jungle lodge there 3 nights. No hotels there then 5 cabins & a lodge for meals and bar., no air conditioning 95f 100% humidity.That has to be such an epic sight!!!

Or one that hunts you! Gets angry. 🕸🕷For real... I don't have a problem with spiders as long as they're not on me....I usually set them free... but squirrel sized spiders, or spiders that can off you? No thanks!
If you were local I'd give you some. I've been toying with the idea of a give away of edibles and clones for 4/20, but that would be local. And the laws here are that we can gift, but absolutely no exchange for the gifts. They covered that loophole that is exploited in other states. But I don't mind, I just want to be able to share without getting arrested. Just don't know the logistics of how and where I could setup a give away booth without being hassledThread participants get samples right?
I do that year round! I’m really thankful for the gifting laws written into Mo law. I’m no longer a criminal! LolIf you were local I'd give you some.

Just want to give something back to the community for 4/20 you know? For those that might be curious about growing I would give them a clone and or edibles to those that are curious but intimidated for whatever reason to try cannabis.
Is anyone else doing anything generous for the occasion?
Amazing! My husband went to Costa Rica with our high school, senior trip I think, maybe Spanish club... either way he had an epic time climbed a volcano, swam in a jungle oasis... until they all got wasted and sent home early and he spent a month being grounded.I took my wife and 12 year old on a 4x4 adventure in Costa Rica about 30 years ago.

From there back to San Jose then up to Arenal Volcano and over to Monteverte rain forest then down the coast to Quepos staying in Manuel Antonio National park....with a day trip down to Dominical ( a surfers paradise ) then back to San Jose to fly out.....3 week of adventure back when I was young and able.....
Same here in Michigan , i give away 5 oz a month to my cousins husband that has MS. That was the reason i started growing when Michigan went legal. I wasn't t smoking at the time.I do that year round! I’m really thankful for the gifting laws written into Mo law. I’m no longer a criminal! Lol
