You might just have too much tea if...
I always say you can never have too much tea but maybe it’s time to reconsider—
Your physical cupboard can not contain your stash.
You can’t find a tea you got yesterday after looking in all your normal tea storage areas (damn you Plum Brandy Cheese cake! Where are you hiding? I need another cup before I can review you)
You have several tea storage areas…
And they aren’t small
You won’t be able to drink fast enough to finish your tea in over a year even if you didn’t buy anymore
Your mail carrier is a little to familiar with you
Feel free to add on or say if any of these things are true about you.
Wait what, too much tea?
I know I know, it’s such a strange concept. It took me hunting all over the house for my Plum Brandy to even consider the idea.
I’m going to have to make some more tea drinking friends to have over and help me out.
I think one of my problems is I’m a recovering underleafer and an avid resteeper. It’s tough when you drink a crazy amount of tea every day but are actually going through very little leaf.
This has been a big problem for me. Back when I only had 20 or so teas it was fine. Now, well, a year is about a decade too short to finish it all. At least I have it all contained in my den… well, and a corner in the living room… and a few in the kitchen, but really that’s it I swear. Of course you know how hard it is too dump and entire sample into the teapot. I am trying.
Yeah I have a horrible fear of finishing teas I like when I know I can’t buy more for a while so I’m bad at sipdowns.
I don’t underleaf (I probably overleaf, but it makes me happy) but I am an avid avid avid resteeper.
I may have already told Frolic this, but I currently have a stack of boxes and envelopes in my family room from over the last couple of weeks because I don’t have a place to put them. This would be fine, mostly, except that one of the cats has now claimed the tea as his own.

He really likes the packages that tea come in, and licks them.
This is normally not a problem, except that last night I found him chewing on a baggie of tea that had fallen out of my swap this into TTBs box. Fortunately, it was neither a tea I wanted, not a tea I promised to someone else. This just really means that I need to put the tea away, so I need to clean out the pantry the rest of the way. (I’ve claimed about 2/3 of it, but I need to just take over the rest of it.)
