I got some damn fine tea in the mail today. My Yunnan Gold arrived. The year of the horse theme was well carried out. ;-)

Sil select said

want.. sigh

Courtney said

Did you want me to send some your way to tide you over until you’re there Sil?

Sil select said

it’s ok silly, you just sent me something :) And i need this weekend to catch up and get yours to you. Mostly i just want nina’s to move to their own website instead of just through amazon.com

Courtney said

Silly hah. Yes I also want that, although Amazon wasn’t so bad. And to be honest I didn’t think the shipping was bad. It was $12 for my order.

Sil select said

any issues with customs or anything like that?

Courtney said

None at all. Not even a signature required. Delightful.

Sil select said

gah… you’re supposed to say it was awful, horrible…the worst time ever…
….so that maybe i can hold off until March.

Courtney said

Whoops :P Didn’t think that one through. You can hold off, it’s only a month away.

And Sil, it’s the shortest month too!

there’s a teeeeny part of me that wants to place a nina’s order, A&D…and then just say no more until i’ve tried all the teas in my cupboard and the oldest is within 6 months…

VariaTEA said

Sil, the only thing that as stopped me from placing a Nina’s order is the fact that I know I will be visiting them when I go to Florida in March.

Sil select said

Just not sure yet, if i’ll be able to get our of Orlando and over to Miami while i’m there…

VariaTEA said

Why not place an order but send it to your friend in Orlando. Shipping couldn’t possibly be that expensive to send it within the same state.

Sil select said

haha…way to be thinking about things i usually do but totally blanked.. i think in part because i also just want to see the store :)

VariaTEA said

No store. Just an office although they moved since I was last there.

After a 2-day delay due to two snow storms, my Yezi order finally arrived. And it came with a lovely Chinese new year decorative knot :]

I got the knot, too! It’s lovely :) It sucks you had to wait for your order so long because of this stupid snow :(

My sample from Blue Chai arrived! Thai stamps are gorgeous! Sadly, the journey has left it a bit flattened, and I have a rather matcha-esqe tisane to experiment with.
