It'll be ok, my promotion kicks in tomorrow. No more attics for me! But more dealing with customers. My "training" might need some of these "sensitivity training" courses I've heard about. π€£

Good news! ππ
After my last convo with one of the heart surgeons today, I wouldn't be surprised to being offered some sensitivity training myself! π

Congrats, Josh.
I used a bunch of Mulled Magic McChrystal yesterday. I wish they could still name flavors after flavors. I imagined mulling spices, but I get only clove and something that reminds me of Canada mints, but it's not wintergreen. I probably prefer Xmas Pudding for this type of thing, but Gingerbread from de Kralingse was the best in that vein. Alas, it is no more.

I'll bet that won't keep you from heading back to Arizona first chance you get. Already here man. I came back about a month ago. The "battle" is still going on back in Georgia, but it was going no where. I came back to set up a better life, future and opportunities for myself and my kids. I've put myself in a better position for an even better outcome. Had I stayed in Georgia any longer, thr out one would have been a bad one.

F&T HDT with occasional toots of Bureau. I wish they still made Bureau. And GH Ambassador--yes, they're weird and perfumed, but they're just the ticket sometimes.

Ambassador was one of the few GH snuffs I had and carried a tap tin early on. I think it's the blend that I'm reminded of when dipping the Chetek Snus Lajawaab Punjabi. This stuff tastes like Lakeland tobaccos in many ways and I've really grown to love this stuff. Herbal, lemon balm-y, menthol or more like a eucalyptus/camphor type flavor to it. As far as oral snuffs go, it's really clean in the mouth because it's all green rustica leaf with the herbs and doesn't blacken your spit. I've been putting a few lips of this stuff in per day but only a pea-sized pinch and the flavor lasts forever. I'm about through my first tin of the stuff and have one more on hand. This one is definitely a reorder and has become one of my favorite snus tobaccos.

I have a tin left in the freezer, probably white portion, though. It was at Snus Central, so that might be a place to check if anyone is interested. It's definitely got a kick.

86 at 11 am, in July, in Glendale... what the hell? It's normally 105+ by now. Doing some "yard" work with FVF in my pipe and Jocks Choice in my nose.
Such unseasonable weather... bring on the storms! (Flash flood warning today)

DarinDear Mister Snuff Maker Person, I've been playing with some Toque Rough with a bit of Virginie, scented with lavender and cedar essential oils and then moistened to a high case. It's not Santo Domingo, but it's yummy. Q: Were I to attempt a Schmalzler-like thing, how would I oil it? I'm fresh out of real Schmalz. Keep it greasy, Snuffy McNosecave
