The 2:1 Rule by Coltrane Maccabee
Hello my fellow hippies and hipsters, Firstly, I’d like to thank Ms. Valerie for extending this invitation to address her endeared followers. I, myself, have gotten down and dirty in the kitchen with some of those delicious recipes I keep seeing on the blog. Especially the baking (no pun intended). A fan favorite on 4/20 is always the famous pot brownie. There are a million different YouTube videos that all explain succinctly how to extract the THC from the actual marijuana leaves in melted butter. Some call for different amounts at different temperatures…I’ve tried them all and they all work. The key, however, is avoiding an overly potent brownie. Not only is it a waste of your precious plant, but also a waste of your more precious time. There’s nothing worse than stoning yourself beyond coherence. There’s no reason to use all the butter anyways. Save some in glass tupperware and refrigerate it so you can use some for later. The healthy tip that I want to leave you with is that when a recipe calls for weed butter, whether it’s for brownies, cookies, or your Sunday Hangover English Muffin, make sure to dilute it with a serving of normal butter. For example, if a recipe requires 3 tablespoons of butter, use 2 tablespoons of weed butter and 1 of normal. This is the 2:1 rule that has treated me well over the years. Not only does this give you a more mellow and manageable high , but you have more weed butter to last you longer. I have to finish typing this…the brownie is kicking in ;) Happy 4/20! -CM
