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 […]
We’ve been pretty quiet lately…this is part of the reason why. I hope you can appreciate how difficult and personal this was for Felicity to write, and how brave it was of her to share it with us. — OH I have a hidden health problem: chronic PTSD brought on by years of traumatic abuse […]
People use bongs (aka water pipes) because they cool off the smoke and make it easier on your throat and lungs. Bongs work amazingly well with vapor too, but you hardly need a large or expensive bong for the amount that comes out of a vape pen. I came up with this design for my wife […]
OK, a bit of an exaggeration. Nevertheless, job-related stress did increase my consumption of alcohol from zero to a whiskey glass every time I came home from work. As I often don’t sleep well after drinking alcohol, I then turned to cannabis edibles and tinctures so that I could (hopefully) wake up fully rested before […]
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 […]
Ever since Prohibition was repealed, the ongoing excuse to keep alcohol and tobacco legal (as opposed to marijuana) is because they’re “part of our society”. Never mind the huge ongoing death toll from smoking, long-term alcohol abuse and drunk driving. Well, millions of Americans use cannabis every day too. It is also part of our […]
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 […]
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. […]
This has been an odd week for Felicity. Things started off fairly normally last Saturday night when my dear wife took one of the new, relatively strong Canna Caps I made for her to fall asleep, as she’s been doing lately. Then, she decided to stop using all cannabis for 2 or 3 days, since […]
It’s time to get medical grade cannabis out of the bogeyman’s realm and into the hands of patients. The bogeyman in this case is comprised of the following types of beliefs: that cannabis is evil or dangerous that THC is the only useful chemical component in cannabis that pharmaceutical science with one hand tied behind […]
