Okay people I’ll be mailing off the Travelling Teabox in the next couple of days. Lala, I’m going to need your address so please pm me. If you (or anyone else who might be participating in future rounds) wants anything from my Cupboard please let me know. It’s more or less up to date though there are a few items that I might not want to part with.

Hey everyone. I have not heard back from Jillian. I sent PMs 12 and 2 days ago, as well as replied to her posting on this thread. I do realize it is a long weekend, for me in Saskatchewan anyway :P

Does anyone happen to have her email or FB to be able to contact her to get an update on the box?

Thanks

The tea box has arrived back to me. I haven’t opened it yet and it will take me a few days to go through it.

As usual:

1. Thanks to everyone for the success of this round of the box.

2. Please post comments on what went good, what went bad, what to change, etc.

3. Finally, I am not going to be able to organize a new round until October or later. So things will be on hold for a while. If someone wants to take over and organize the next round sooner just let me know.

For the next round I will make sure to put the books back in the box so we can keep track of what teas were taken/added.

I also think for future rounds all members may need to provide additional contact info such as email, FB, etc. All this info will be kept private. But it is to ensure good communication if for some reason someone misses a post or message on steepster.

There will remain a moratorium on no more Davids Tea unless it is specifically requested or a limited edition, etc.
