Cup O' Tea

ohhhhhh I'm gonna love this one :) winter is already at the corner :( we had a very early HOT summer (the hottest of the last 200 years) and plundge right into almost winter time :( Count me in, count me int :)

forgot to mention: serious allergy to grapefruit unfortunatelly, i eat/drink=trip to the hospital. even mixed with other flavors or as secondary ingredient. Please check the ingredients :)

would be nice if anyone has any type of food allergy to let know as well ;)

Thank you for posting the food allergy farruska! I'm looking forward as well to this swap...I Love Hot Tea on a cold night!! Have a great day!! Jill

This sounds like fun! I have stared drinking more tea and less coffee these days!

Just a note that I prefer black teas to herbal teas, although I'm willing to try new things.

Sorry, I accidentally hit the drop from swap instead of view swap button! I signed up again!

I am a loose tea drinker - I will be happy to send bagged teas, but would like to share some of my favorite loose teas as well - would that be acceptable?

I, personally, would LOVE to get loose tea... not sure about anybody else, though.

Hi, Can i participate in this swap? I loves Tea's but i'm living in Germany.

Hi Dieuwertje ! I'm in Germany too ;)

Thats good to now. So i can start looking for a nice tea cup and lovely smelling tea's

@farruska will the mail arrive in only 10 days (from Germany)? I've wrote Jill about that, but she hasn't answered yet.

@Drachenfrau at the Post they said about 7 werktage minimum for the USA for example. but can also take less! On the green swap I've sent to the USA on the 16th and debp received on the 22nd!

(p.s. today I've remembered of you :D because here in D'orf we're getting the Dachen boat race :) now I know what your name means ;) )

@farruska thanks. My postman couldn't tell me. :-( (Yes, Drachen = Dragons g)

Hi,

I have found a lovely tea cup this day at a secondhandshop. You cann't see it is a secondhand one.

The cup is just like the ones i get when i drink tea at my grandmothersplace. She did turn 90 this summer. I like the idea to send a "real" tea cup. I hope the one who gets this teacup liked it also.

i was just looking at some profiles and was wondering if maybe we could list some of our fav flavors and snacks here to make picking the perfect thing for our partner easier?

likes: tea:anything in teas except strong peppermint flavor. i love tea. snacks: i am vegetarian, so no meat please. and i like to try new things.

thanks:)

That's a great idea chengwa121, would be great if everybody did it as well :)

likes: tea: anything goes except mint (and it's really normal here in germany the minztee - mint tee) and as said before, definetly no grapefruit (even in mixture, ingredient, etc, it's a certain trip to the hospital so i'd ask my partner to spare me that one :) ) I also like to try strange new falvours combinations :D the latest was strawberry with vanille and camommile with ginger :D nice one hehe

snacks: open to anything really :)

have a great day!

I agree, I love certain teas but not others. I love raspberry tea, lemon tea, but no caommile. The fruity teas are my favorites. I collect tea cups so I would be very excited with one, but a mug is okay too. I love shortbread cookies also, but surprises are great. And like most, chocolate is #1 on my list.
Happy Tea Time Ladies! Iva

I just wanted to let my partner know that I might be late sending this one (no later than september the 30th), at least is related to tea as well : just added a new tea to my collection: tea for kidney stones .... yuck! have to take care of this, hope to be on time to send my package ;) Ligia

I sent my littlebox today to my swap-partner. The postman said that it will be in the USA in 5 till 7 days.

i sent my package out today. hope my partner likes it!!!

posted pics

yikes...too big...sorry. i am new at this. i am going to post smaller images now ;)

Jill,

I've tried to contact you several times... have you received my package?

:)

JILL, being the organizer, doesn't make sense not answering back to emails, swap-bot messages or discussion board :( have you received my package ?

to my partner, nothing yet :( I think probably the postman is having a tea party at our expenses :(

yay! Once again Ellen (Libbybear) surprises me :) first of all thank you for the trouble and care on sending a second package when we both acknowledged that probably the first was being used by some postmen for his/her personal Tea Party. It's tea time on germany cold nights, with a wonderful country-design tea mug and an amazing assortiment of teas, from herbal to lavender! organic and caffeine free :) just perfect! To complete this already yummylicious treat, 2 chocolats (which by the way were I've already hadd to eat :D some sacrifices have to be done hehe), both very good but one really surprised me:) imagine maltesers but with coffee, orange, caramel, malteser and raisin flavours :) and of course a little enjoy note on a cute paper :) Thank you again Ellen!!
