Tea Is A Cup Of Life

How much can I exploit this deal over the weekend?

Challenge accepted.  

Hope you guys made out well!

First ones to PM me get it!

Thanks for all the feedback!  It was fun having an inbox with stuff in it.

Basically there’s a push to be more of a traditional type tea blog.  Which means what?  Tea news, tea culture, ideally weeklyish tea reviews and more tea outreach.  

I’m probably going to be playing with the main page, if anyone even looks at a blog’s actual page other than just seeing it in their dash.  So if something breaks or changes on you, let me know.

If you are a tea blog or know a tea blog send me a link.  I think over 1/2 of the people I follow are tea-related and most of those have accumulated so much dust, it’s just sad.  My dash has so much… not-tea.

Also, I’m really interested in building more of a communiTEA.  It’s no secret I’m not a fan of warm fruit teas, but if you want to defend their role in this communiTEA, send something in.  Or if you think there is some other underrepresented tea demographic here, write a bit or a tea review and email me or something.. And I’m sure everyone has their own favourite teas, and it would be cool to do some spotlights coming from other perspectives.  My IRL friends have helped a lot out with this blog even without knowing it exists, so here’s their little shout out.  Every time they see something tea related they generally send me a link over FB to show they are thinking of me and it’s really lovely and sweet and often not something I’ve seen before.  So if you’re trolling another part of the internet than I am and see something… .I’m sure you can guess this.

If you’re on Steepster, that might be getting dusted off soon, too!

Exciting time to be a tea-blog!

My favourite local tea room imported these fun and fancy “Authentic Lancashire Eccles Cakes” for the occasion.

Anyone picking up their favourite Shakespeare with them as they take tea today?  Shoot me some pictures, or tell me how you’re celebrating!

You’d be hard pressed to find a better tea cookie that isn’t shortbread based, esp. one that goes so well with Spring.

How are you guys dressing up your morning cuppa?

Yes, Easter Tea, unlike the general Egg Hunts which aren’t to be confused with the Easter Egg Hunts.  

My family always does an Easter High Tea, so maybe we’ll see some fun pics from that.

Here it’s been practically summer all week, and is expected to hit nearly 70F on the holiday, hopefully we won’t all melt.  At the very least, I hope the rest of you are enjoying the weather and Spring candy, or whatever it tickles your fancy to call it.  

And this is going to be spammed for the next few days with some lovely Easter and Spring themed pics, so if that irritates you inside, well this isn’t meant to be a controversial blog, I consider tea to be a universal, so unfollow.  It’s not like I’m trying to give you discounts on Zhena’s Gypsy tea like last time we stirred things up.  >.>

All my decent tea left is loose.  >.<’  And I don’t have the effort to clean my ingenuiTEA or self-filter.  x.x

So.

Some questions about the Stash Tea Giveaway and how to enter, you can either to to Stash’s website (www.stashtea.com) which will link you to their FB page, or search for them on FB.  There should be plenty of places there telling you where to click.  Look especially where there are generally photo albums on a normal FB profile.

Bigelow, same thing.  Hit up their FB page, like them, along that banner under their cover photo there’s a category that says “sweepstakes.”  Click on it or any of their posts reminding you about the Year of Tea Giveaway.

And thank so much for all the tea love. :D  You guys are lovely.

….And for some reason this generally paceful tea is making you hyper, when all you want to do is calm down and slow the world a little bit, but you can hardly do that because now you’re focused on filtering tea dust with your lips rather than class or work or whatever you’re actually supposed to be doing, which is incredibly annoying and the tea is almost wracking your nerves more.
