Da Bella da Ball Journal

Soooo, what did ya do in Europe, hmm? Ooooo la la! I’ll be looking for a report, Monsieur!

Hmm, I wasn’t sure what triple 0 was…not the one you’re referring to anyways. :smiley:

Yes, Ren, I know what you’re saying. When Russia fell, they fished the hell outta the sturgeon to boost the economy. Over fishing is serious, not to mention how demand has driven up the price! Once again, great minds think alike… * cough *.

LOL…I would never criticize your taste…though I might be a tad worried if it was ketchup in the middle of a Twinkie.

I haven’t tried trout caviar, yet, but over the last few years I’ve become well acquainted with American Hackleback (Missouri) and Paddlefish (Tennessee) caviars. Bond, I’ll venture to say that you’ll find the trout caviar similar to those rather than the salmon roe, which I love BTW. #1 sushi grade…yummy with softly scrambled eggs and brioche…makes a lovely New Years Day brunch!

I have access to great caviar at reasonable prices from …http://www.assoulineandroth.com/store/caviar-d.html (http://www.assoulineandroth.com/store/caviar-d.html) …located in Philadelphia. They’re purveyors of fine foods and supply the goods to the better restuarants in Philly and Atlantic City. The domestic caviars they carry are listed on this page.

We heard about them several years ago and went there…or tried to. We found the street where they were originally located and walked up and down and found nothing…no sign…hmm. Then we heard hammering and walked towards where it was coming from…Bingo!..there were men building shelving and hauling stuff into the building and literally putting the store together…not exactly ready for prime time. We lucked out and were able to purchase that day. They were just getting their business off the ground and there wasn’t the concern for over fished sturgeon at the time.

Better sit down… 'cause in the history of the world, this ain’t never gonna happen again. That day (and for a few years afterwards with nominal increases each year) we purchased…Royal Beluga for $25.00/oz…Beluga, $20.00/oz…Osetra, $18.00/oz…Sevruga, $15.00/oz. I know!!! Did you ever?!! If you peruse the imported caviars on the site, you’ll see this is definitely no longer the case but it was fabulous while it lasted. I like the domestic caviars I’ve tried very much and will continue buying them for treats around the holidays. Now, trout caviar is on my list to try. Thanks for the links, Boo! :cool: How did ya know I have a fondness for Johnny cakes!

Oh, and Chef’s A’field is one of my favorite cooking/eating shows! It’s a wonderful show that incorporates sustainable farming methods and community. Lovely. :slight_smile:

Thanks, Boo! I appreciate your support. :wink:

That means you shouldn’t stay away so long. :slight_smile:

Aw, poor Cowboy. You’ll just haveta get your sexy ass in the kitchen and slap one together! Hey, while you’re at it, you can make some for us too! Woohoo! Mark’s cookin’! I’ll get the beer and I’ll have sausage or a hot dog…I’m sure that’s a shock.

OK, back to the trenches… let me know when my dog’s ready. :smiley:

Just letting you know your next test pack will be going out tomorrow afternoon via US Mail.

There is a lotion and cream sample, in addition to the other items. These are different from what I’ve been testing at home. I realized I had some organic extra virgin coconut oil that needed to be used up, so I used it in the both the lotion and the cream. The lotion is around 5X, and the cream is 10X.

Next week I’m expecting some things to come in and I may whip up some new test batches to send out at that time, or I may wait a little and let you guys have time enough to test the other items first.

These are a little heavier in feel than I actually want, because of the coconut, but I’m liking the coconut smell. It has a nice light scent that blends very well with the cops. The cops may ripen in the lotion the same way they do in perfume. So, you’ll have to let me know what you think of this scent combination.

Diane

Thanks for the heads up, Diane.

Di-Cops REPORT…End of round one

I used the last of both vials from the first round last night and today. I won’t bore you with a long summary.

I applied what was left in the green dot vial, a little over half, after I showered and before I went to bed. Nothing of consequence to report. I got up and without showering applied the rest of the yellow dot vial, about 8/9 drops. I’ve been with Wolf, off and on, in close contact. Other than the usual affection, there’s nothing to report.

Bella

Did it still smell like it did when you started.

In the bottle and on your skin?

And how does it age on the skin? Are there top, middle, base notes?

How long before you lose the scent?

OoohYahhh

Well, Mushroom Man, I will no longer be posting or answering any questions about Diane’s cops. Seems we’re one toke over the line.

For anyone who’s missed it.

Now I’m going to hunt down some sorghum seeds. :smiley:

LOL good god, you craaack me up :slight_smile:

It’s been awhile so I’d thought I’d pop in and say hi! :slight_smile: Hi! :smiley:

It’s curious…the last time I posted on Sept, 7, 2009…I had a post count of 2,355. Now it’s 2,345. Michael, Jasmin, SteveO…what happened to ten of my posts and why have they been deleted? You know me…always searching for The Truth!

When I logged on I had a note waiting for me at the top of the main forum page that said how happy you are to see me and that you really want me to post! Well, here I am! Now, tell me why I should make anymore posts if you’re just going to delete them! :frowning: That’s quite a mixed message.

Not only that…

I noticed LaurieNY’s sticky…“Newbie With A Few Questions”… has been deleted from the top of the Women’s Forum. I don’t have to ask why that one is gone. In fact, I’ll tell everybody why. It was a thread about Essence of Women…that’s why. In that thread, Laurie’s question was about EoW and Ail/Bunny/Garamon, (a former, now banned member), posted an excellent explanation of how EoW works and how to use it. It was the go to thread we referred newbies to when they asked about cops.

Since copulins are such a sore point for AD they’re simply erasing those kinds of posts. (Anybody remember Dolly, also a former member…all of her posts were deleted!)
To what purpose? I promise you, it won’t stop newbies from asking about Copulins/Essence of Women…how to use it or where to find it. The ladies want cops and are going to use them no matter if they’re discussed here or not.

You will never be able to keep that info from them no matter how many posts about copulins you delete or how many former members you run off/ban. They’ll simply find another source for their information. Fortunately, there’s more than one pheromone forum on the net where they can obtain that information…and I mean besides Love Scent and the other other unmentionable blacklisted magickal place.

Anyways, I hope the friends I have… who are still here * cough … are doing well. Not that they’ll actually see *this post. :roll_eyes:

Ciao,

Bella

I miss you. <3

All’s well here.

I second that. Miss ya too, Bella. <3

Musk

Ditto. Not to mention that I learned a lot from your posts. Hope you are well!

There may be another explanation for deleted posts

I understand you may be grumpy bella…
however, i’m asking you to…

(singing)
Always look on the bright side of your life…
(whistles away)
