Great Canadian Travelling Tea Box Round Six--CLOSED

I’m hoping for an update too. I will definitely be gone after Dec. 17, so hopefully the plan is to it into motion soon!

My apologies for the delay. Motion, yes. I will revisit the order and timeline to take into account the various accommodations needed.

The consolidated box is on its way to Kristal and I’ve sent her the tracking info. She should be receiving it this Tuesday.

I did buy a replacement booklet for the box for when the current one runs out of pages which will be fairly soon. And then, I forgot to place the new book in the box, so if and when we run out of pages in the current one, would someone kindly add a new booklet? If it is close to the end of the order, just add a page or two and I’ll transcribe it into the one I bought when the box comes back to the end.

I hope I’m not being a bit pesky but I’d really love it we could get some more pure teas in there before it gets over here if that’s at all possible friends (:

Holy crap that’s a lot of teas! I will update when I receive/send the box out to the next person. Mackie, I will try and share some straight teas. I know for sure I will be sharing a white blend, a black blend, a small sample of an oolong, and then some straight greens + herbals depending on how many samples I take ;).

Mookit, kindly friend Kristal here on steepster so that you can exchange mailing details.

Actually, could everyone participating in round six friend the person before and after them in the queue to enable exchanging post details?
