For those who eat their meds...

What's your favourite recipe? I got a wicked banana bread recipe from company's coming that I use half sugar half Splenda ( watching my figure eh lol) so moist after it sits overnight. Cut into 12 slices and I'm good to go for a couple of days. It works really good for me after swimming when my back's in spasm, it just takes a bit of time to kick in. I've got a nasty peanut butte cookie recipe too. And I really enjoy my 151 tincture, especially at night. Anyone have a good recipe to share. I want to try and make lollypops.

I'm interested in lollypops too. Right now I just use a tincture and capsules. I take the tincture at bedtime and have some capsules in my purse in case I need them during the day.

During the grows I take leaves off when I can and wash ...then bowl them....
pour a couple ounces of salad dressing...(whatever You prefer) and munch them down...
did this all last summer....no buzz with this method,but again there was relief from inflammation within the vertebrae mid spine...
Also do cannabutter like a lot of people...definite buzz with this method....
During flare-ups and I have 3 distinct area's of damage along my spine...I have forund capsules of honey oil, to work really well,
though Its considerable harder to work,while medicated on oils...I'm not blitzed but definite rubbery feeling.....good thing I don't have to leave the house for work....lol
I don't drink any alcohol, so I haven't tried any tinctures yet....mostly due to interactions with other rx drugs..I take......but have been considering though ...since one of my worst conditions at the moment is insomnia...I'm averaging 1.5 hours sleep/per session....
usually have to try and sleep now, once or twice thru the day.....
mind you pay checks have been getting better and better as I sleep less and less...
I like the idea of lolly pops....and candy....but all has to be sugar free....which can be a challenge within itself.
I figure a lot of fried foods could be done in oils that have had thc/cbd bound to them , similar to cannabutter..but not sure how much affect on the taste it would have...
We just got an "actifried" cooker...which fries similar to conventional fryer with only very small amounts of oils....so I was hoping to try some olive or vegtable oils....with some dry sieved trich's..
I will let you know how that turns out ...after the next crop is complete...lol

i was curious about lollypops well gummies actually . I've tried cannabutter in a lot of recipes banana bread was great mine had chocolate chips to cover the strong taste. Cookies seem to be easiest for me managing dosage and they keep well. As for tincture cannadan have you looked into using some food grade vegetable glycerin heard it makes for a slightly weaker end medicine/longer process but the recipe i saw recommended some keif which im sure would help the potency.. also i think they were comparing to using 190 proof (in the US)so the strength difference might not be as big of a factor comparing to what ive tried 151 proof but the glycerin seems to be a good idea for those who cant/dont drink or just dont like the burn when taking their medicine well besides the 6 month wait they suggest. I recently got an "actifry" too only tried it for none medical food but seems like it would work well for turning just about anything fried into a medible let me know how it turns out tho as my medicine supply is almost down to nothing and the meds i will soon be able to afford will again be in pill form instead of these other much more effective not to mention delicious options

Hey SneakyBob..I too like the candy Idea....should be a more welcoming thing for me being a former suger junkie...lol
I thought Keif would be a good starting product/point ..as food additive,,,since its as potent as your plant can be(sort of)
That way you can add the minimum amount... to any one meal or frying....in the actifry ..I was thinking a starchy potatoe cut chunky fry size...
then add some flavorings like maybe tex-mex.or garlic/salt....or something.....and the keif....with the heat for about 25 to 30 mins
heat will probably degrade the thc slightly in that time period.....but it would also act as a decarb....I think...but I'm new to this stuff for sure...
The one thing I do know...If I can use it on foods I like and am allowed to eat....without too much restriction...then I will use it...
but if your gagging down something ...chances are...your gonna abandon it pretty quick.
As far as tinctures and the like.... I haven't started or tried anything yet and was just beginning to do some research and reading. .
but with the chance this program gets scrapped....looming...I have been easily side tracked daily... from the original quest.....(into the MMPR crap for lack of a better word.......)
and the meds will end up used or gone....in a months time....
I was gonna get a volcano.. to vape with.....but at this point Its a decent size investment in something that may be gone soon...so really can't justify it....
I have a greenhouse half built too....which I will finish probably,so my wife can use it for her gardening....but I work slowly,very slowly these days....

The whole time since I was prescribed cannabis Its been like throwing money away...trying to do the right thing...to grow ,harvest,cure store,protect,perfect...in like two or three crops....
I would say...its been an uphill battle all the way and I have immersed my self completely, and daily...and have been obsessing over details.... etc...lol
and so it has worked out....pretty good....but I would be embarrassed to post the total cost of investment....for just 1 years worth of production....with probably zero chance to recoup this investment ,,,without a few years of running...arghhhhhh
I feel you on the starting pills thing again too....it sucks.....its like getting all dirty again....but I too have zero choice....dependent on the outcome of the John Conroy cases

Hey Cannadan...when I was looking for a vaporizer, I was going to get a volcano, but then I saw the arizer q ( made in Canada ) and works like a damn. Takes a bit to figure out what temp works for you but I wouldn't trade it for a volcano.

Glycerin tinctures are different. I didn't like,the texture so,I burn my mouth with 151, actually, I have a little nip at night and it does make,me a little bleary-eyed.

I was thinking about going to the local candy store and asking if they might help me make a sugar free lolly. I already have enough problems with my teeth from medications, so I don't need help from sugar.

Try not to stress too much about this situation...I just gotta keep a positive outlook that Conroy will come through and we'll get a break of some sort.

I've tried the glycerin and the oil tinctures. I found the texture in my mouth gross. Like Whatfg I've settled on using high grade vodka. I did bring back some 190 proof last time I did a little shopping over the border, but I don't think the difference is worth the effort.

It is terrible isn't it lass?? I got a lolly recipe from the BCCCS and when I find it I'll post it. I had a really nasty looking caramel,recipe that had butter, cream and alcohol in it. I 'm always looking at recipes to see how I can tweak them for medibles.

man I got the teeth breaking down from meds too..it used to be nothing to have a dozen cavities,,,,come check up time...
and I look after these puppies.....its surprizing how much In common....a lot of us have .. with ailments....and the resultant medications....


I am doing my very best, at trying to stay positive.....thru this mess..and trust me its not an easy thing for me to do....but I will manage anyways....since there is no good to come from being depressed over this..stuff
I too was think of keeping an eye out for a cheaper model of vape...I have even seen an Arizer Q model...at GTA seeds I think.... and It was reasonably priced...My wife had actually pointed it out while I was immersed in the seed bank stuff .
I just know alcohol and I don't mix at all....or at least haven't for the last 35 years...
I would think a somewhat greasy or oily version of that sponge toffee that is made with baking soda....would suit me pretty good.... since it has an odd almost chemical taste.... and I think it too could be made with a keif...powder... added.(candy Crack)lol

I didn't consider sponge toffee. I love that stuff! Have you already tweaked a recipe for that? And I wouldn't start consuming alcohol either if I hadn't had any in 35 years.

Stay positive man, hopefully this madness will be over sooner than later. Vaporization is my preferred method of taking my meds. I recently settled on a Vapir NO2, cost me about $150 but I've seen them as low as $115 on various sites, check around and you should be able to find one fairly priced. You might even be able to find a vape pen for cheaper than that if you use oils/extracts, I just chose that one because it's easy to use, portable and has a decent battery life. Off a full charge I can use it pretty regularly all day and only need to charge it at night.

I've been wanting to try more edibles lately. I've had muffins and cookies and made some tinctures back in my younger days but since I've been doing more research I hear the effects are longer lasting when ingested. I have neuropathic pain and severe muscle spasms in my legs so I'm hoping this will provide some longer lasting relief. Anybody got a good space cake recipe? Or just use the box mix shit with canna butter/oil?

I think most people do this

I make everything from scratch. I really want to try a meatball recipe - like big fat ones that make a meal. I also am going to try having salad with canna olive oil and balsamic vinegar.I made rice krispie squares,but they were hard as rocks even with extra marshmallows. They got tossed. I'm getting hungry now!
