Official *What did you get in the mail today?* Thread!!!

Yay! I hope you like all the teas!!!! If not, that’s ok, too. I’m on the fence about Gaga….

OOOHHHH jealous of the Lady Gaga!!
That sounds like a great swap package – enjoy your teas Cameron!!!

So… I was intrigued by the Lady Gaga tea. I decided to google “Lady Gaga tea”. This is what I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHth36LWQ58
Gaga actually wrote a song called TEA!

Too funny!

Pic or link pls! I love teapots! :)

Love it! What an adorable shape!

Awesome madametj – new teaware is the best. :))

Can we please get a link or pic of this gaiwan? I am on a teaware craze and am not above stealing ideas from others. :)

Yes please…been on a teaware craze myself for the last 4 years….never gets old!

I wonder if that’s the longest ongoing teaware craze on Steepster. :p

Sarsonator, TheTeaFairy, this is an intervention….

jk. lets go buy teapots :D

OMG I am dying over here… too funny madametj! LOL :p

But…but….madametj, I do need an intervention :-o

You know what would make you feel better about needing an intervention?

NEW TEAWARE!!!

I’m really trying here – I keep saying NO, and you keep buying ;))

Uh oh… We’ve been spotted…

Oooohhhh – mystery tea samples, those are always fun. Little word of advice – sniff them first try and identify before you just dump boiling water on it. ;))

Normal size black mug for reference…. This thing is tiny!

That set is so pretty! Love it!!!!!

Also, your countertop is gorgeous!

I think I need one more yixing

That is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

Oh that’s pretty!

Thanks sarsonator…. Had some trouble replying here.
Anyway, I love music city! Great service

Just head on over to the Teaware Lust thread. That’s the “intervention” we all need. lol

Looks beautiful Saradiann, thanks for sharing :-)

Little whales? What is that all about? Do tell!

It’s great haul Cwyn! Enjoy!

Lol, “pungent little suckers” !

And a mandala day is a good day…i’m assuming you got your 2009 Mengku Jade Dew?

Wow lots of Mandala orders in the mail today. Did Garret use is special powers to arrange that!!!
(I too don’t know about the Three White Whales – will have to look this up and see what I’m missing)
Enjoy your haul Cwyn!!!

Yup. I got my Jade Dews and White Whales, yummery! Back on the puerh topic is where these were discussed recently, I think a bunch of us did an order, $15 a brick for 2002 100 g sheng pupu.

Enjoy!

Isn’t it gratifying when your kids love tea?

Absolutely! My hubby got her into it. So far her absolute favorite is the Titanic blend from Harney

Enjoy your order!!! I love the tins my fandom sampler came in. :))

Awwww! Best tea day ever!!! You so deserve it. The pot is magnificent, so happy for you :-)

That pot is adorable :)

LOVE!!!! What a great mail day! I’m so jelly b/c I got absolutely nothing in the mail today… not even bills! LOL

Nice haul!

Omg
You just made my Thursday night
I spy Temple Stairs mini tuo’s Yay
And my beloved YS. What’s the sample if you don’t mind? Can’t see the label
I’m so happy for you! Enjoy and give us taste notes

Wow, great haul and that teapot is sooo cute!

Thanks all – Canada Post has been really nasty to me this week (still have a package “on hold” that they won’t send to me even though I’ve given then the corrected address info….uggg).
Getting all this today makes me really happy.

boychik the YS sample says: 2012 Yunnan Sourcing “Impressions” Raw Pu-erh tea cake. I haven’t gone to the web site yet to look it up, but considering I haven’t tried much YS, a free sample excites me!!!

Scott always send very good samples to me. And I keep buying, and buying….
YS is very addictive.

Dunno if you got the 2014 Wild Purple Black from YS but it has got to be the best black tea I have, or will ever taste.

Agree. Wild purple black is amazing

jeaaalous!

which wild purple black?

I think this one Sil

I don’t know if its good western but gongfu is amazing

Lucky! I still didn’t get it. Maybe tomorrow …

Enjoy Marzipan – always a good day when Teavivre arrives in the mail.
boychick soon, yours will be here soon. :))

Mine is still stuck in China! :-( enjoy yours!

I got mine today too!!! :D

I just checked and mine left Chicago two days ago. So maybe I’ll get it tomorrow! :P

Last update on mine is that it’s in China. It’ll be here eventually. I hope. (My first Teavivre order disappeared at the postal facility in China. They sent another one, but it was still sad because it took extra weeks.)

Cuuuuuuuute!!

So gorgeous! I remember seeing that one when I was browsing gaiwans on eBay. :D

Thanks!!!

I’m such a fool for all things lotus. Just. Can’t. Resist!

Cute!!

This arrived on the perfect day!

Maple Pecan is the best!!! I ordered so much of it….

Hah, I ordered three of the Butiki teas last night. It’s like a preview of when they come! :P

Awww, how nice cameron :-)

Nice variety. Enjoy them.

Haha! Posted at the wrong place…tea drunk!!!

Haha that really made me laugh. xD Totally threw me off for a moment. Thought this site might be glitching. But it’s just you glitching XD Hahahah this is hilarious!

Haha! i’m a professional glitcher!!!

Hey not a bad thing to be! :P Btw, that tea sounds amazing! Makes me tempted to order…again. xD

This did make me laugh, too. And it sounds YUMMY!

Oh nooo! You did not order this one ost? A must have!!

Cheri, sigh, it seems that I’m clumsy even here on steepster :-o

Sadly no! I was way too distracted ordering that pecan oolong. and some other stuff. xD But mainly the Pecan Oolong…ordered like 6oz of it. xD

Haha Tea Fairy, I wish I was tea drunk rather than at work!

Lol, yes mj, and then you could make a fool out of yourself just like i do ;-)

Unfortunately, I do not have to be tea drunk to make a fool of myself ;)
