It’s hard to forget the first time one tries to make marijuana edibles. My first dalliance with hand-crafted marijuana munchies began well over a decade ago. Despite having the best intentions, the end result was (how shall I put it) subpar. Thanksgiving was right around the corner and we had somehow determined that the easiest […]
It’s been over a decade now since my mother battled with cancer and made it through undefeated but not unscathed. Complications from neuropathy combined with her self-termed “pea-sized bladder” were cutting into her sleep cycle. This is where cannabis came into the picture to save the day. While it would be absolutely laughable to assume […]
It always amazes me how far marijuana edible companies are willing to go to craft a product that truly stands out from the competition. Often this may include unique terpene extractions and bizarre cannabinoid isolations. Sometimes they are sugar-free, microdosed, and some even train their chocolatiers in France. Of all the things that make different […]
My grandmother has always had a burr in her saddle about Willie Nelson. It dates back to the sixties (I believe) when my father was going to his first Willie Nelson concert at Red Rocks. My father kept trying to point out to her that Willie had a very similar background to her own. Not […]
I love food. The secret’s out. I guess it’s not that much of a secret. I may not have the same weakness for sweets on par with some of my friends, but that doesn’t mean I’m ever likely to turn down the chunk of dark chocolate. Throw a little cherry flavor in there and you’ve […]
Let’s take a moment to discuss marijuana edible dosage levels. It has become standard in the industry that a dose of cannabis is ten milligrams in edible form. While not entirely universal, especially on the medicinal side of things, ten milligrams is the dosage that is set by the Marijuana Enforcement Division in Colorado for […]
There’s something about marijuana edibles that has always stood out to me from the very first day that I purchased one recreationally. Edible companies started to fire up their kitchens and started to mass-produce edibles for cannabis craving Coloradans but there’s something that’s been overlooked many times, that’s variety. While naturally, many edible companies produced […]
I have a silly, but a very real problem with the world of marijuana edibles. It has happened to me dozens of times when consuming edibles. I want to eat more… While I know that may not seem like an issue to most, when you’re an edible lightweight like myself and are prone to be […]
It seems like the more things change, the more they stay the same. The divisive nature of humanity isn’t gonna change anytime soon. We just seem pre-disposed to debate the merits of every aspect of life. A recent poignant debate pitted two childhood favorites against each other. Without getting too brand-name-oriented it had to do […]
I absolutely love baking. Now I know in the context of a marijuana-based article you probably assumed I’m referring to baking a car or some other enclosed space. In this situation, however, I am referring to baking delicious baked goods like cookies, cakes, and bread. Since it is Colorado, it is 2017, and cannabis is […]
I’ll always recall the wild west of marijuana edibles. Back before legalization, the only chance of scoring marijuana edibles was from your dealer or if you had the magic touch through your own design. No offense to all the dealers that I used to know, but most wouldn’t want to sell brownies that were loaded […]
Caviar and moon rocks are an inescapable trend that is storming the cannabis industry. I would be genuinely surprised at this point if you hadn’t heard of either. Not only are these little concentrate-loaded nuggets filling up dispensary shelves but as demand increases Marijuana Infused Products (MIP) kitchens are starting to fill up their orders […]
As a long-time, avid cannabis user you can bet your sweet ass I was there the first night that Colorado legalized. Naturally amongst my purchases was some good old fashion bud (my tried and true favorite). But I also wanted to try out some of the edibles that were starting to hit the market as […]
It’s summer time again and one of my favorite things to do when that sun is beating down mercilessly upon my bald head is to enjoy an adult beverage. Oh, did you think I was talking about a beer or mixed drink? Guess again. Here in Colorado “adult beverage” takes an entirely new meaning. If […]
When you work in the marijuana industry there are just some questions that are bound to come up. Questions about your favorite products, favorite strains, and even your favorite form of cannabis. When asked the latter question, my go-to response is always flower. While I will undeniably smoke or imbibe cannabis in any form necessary, […]
