You can buy cannabutter (cannabis cooked into butter) or oils infused with cannabis at a dispensary. Or you can make your own. These edibles can have a “greenish” or slightly bitter taste due to the chlorophyll and terpenes present in the plant matter (this can be almost completely removed by water curing). How To Decarb […]

Magical Butter Machine Product Review (Part 2)
In Part One of this product review, I was really excited about the potential of the Magical Butter Machine. In this part, you’ll find out why! Here’s what I used to make my first pound of cannabutter with the Magical Butter Machine: 14 grams of mixed marijuana buds 4 sticks of butter 2 tablespoons of soy lecithin […]
Magical Butter Machine MB2 Product Review
What would you say to a microprocessor-controlled, high quality appliance that claimed it could make top quality cannabis-infused butter, edible oil, and tincture in a fraction of the time of normal methods? After you got finished rolling your eyes, you’d probably roll a joint, smoke it, and think about how great it would actually be if such […]
Eat Like a Hippie with Pot Peace Pasta (Easy Edibles Recipe)
This article actually started a few months ago. Felicity and I were doing some food shopping, and as per usual on shopping trips, I was a little high (makes it a lot more interesting). If I remember correctly, we were bouncing around Whole Foods, where we go occasionally for special treats, when I suddenly saw […]
Two Old, Too High, Eat and Fly
Felicity and I both had our turn in the barrel last weekend. For me, it was Friday night. I had a long week and a lot more running around and physical stuff to do than usual, so towards evening I had myself a bit more infused cookie than normal. Not too crazy, but a little […]
THC Deterioration In Cannabis Confectionery
About six or seven weeks ago, I rediscovered a package of Cosmic Caramels tucked away in the refrigerator that had basically been sitting there for 2½ years. They worked just like they originally did; same effects, same strength, the whole bit. I’ve been slicing off pieces of the last caramel every week or so, as part […]
Using Kiva Chocolate Bars As a Standard of Measurement
Last week, Felicity and I visited SPARC in San Francisco, and one of the things we picked up there was a Kiva chocolate bar. I’ve gotten these in the past, and I really admire their quality and careful attention to detail and consistency. This time, I happened to notice a cardboard package insert with the […]
A Visit to SPARC in San Francisco
Ah, San Francisco! Origin of the 60s peace/love/acid/lids movement, and home to the most famous intersection of hippiedom, Haight-Ashbury. Felicity and I found ourselves there last week. We had gone to pick up some specialized tools for work I’m doing on our house, and meet a friend for lunch, and we thought we’d visit SPARC. […]
Great Balls of Ganja Goo!
Dear friends, I am very happy to be able to bring you this adventure, which has been lost in my archives for well over a decade. It happened exactly 15 years ago today, to the minute (I’ve timed this to publish exactly at 12:15…you will soon see why). I was excited to be at the […]
AVB Pizza Revisited
About six weeks ago, I talked about one of my old standby favorite edibles, AVB Pizza, in detail. I warned in that article (in bold letters!) that you can feel “surges of highness” four hours later, and last night I proved that beyond the shadow of a doubt. As usual, I try to recreate the […]
