I'm almost to day 8 so cut me a little slack. I'm craving the pinch between the lip and gum. For the past few days I've made a concoction of bold coffee grounds, cayenne pepper and a smidge of Pendleton whiskey. I have two tupperware containers of this crap. One that is wintergreen - mixed with the finest Oregon Mint Snuff (tobacco free of course) and one bold without the mixture.
What's funny is - my boys who are 10 and 11, and keep me quite accountable say "Dad, I thought you quit dipping, what are putting in your lip?" - Coffee son, just coffee, want a pinch? My boys think I'm crazy as the Dad who likes to take a pinch of coffee between the lip and gum. Hey, whatever works right.
Had to share. BTW, my wife was rolling on the floor the other night as I was mixing up the different dips and using her tupperware. She couldn't believe I could be jonesing so bad for a dip.
I love her and she is so supportive.
