Saying "Hello!"

Hello, everyone; my name is Bonnie and, while not exactly a tea newbie, I’ve recently gotten a lot more serious about tea. SO glad I found Steepster! I’ve already learned so much from the discussions; for instance, I never knew there were so many online tea companies. I may never have to shop at Teavana again (unless, of course, I find myself at the mall…). Am eagerly awaiting samples from Teavivre, Teajo Teas and Della Terra — all such nice people to deal with. (I couldn’t resist ordering several Try Me packs from Della Terra!) Now I just need to get my Cupboard in order and my Tasting Log started. I hope to join in on the discussions, although I’m rather intimidated by all of the tea knowledge I see here. Fortunately, feelings of intimidation have never stopped me from making a fool of myself before, so they most probably won’t hold me back now…

Welcome!!!
Don’t be intimidated!
Everything I know about tea came from here! :)
Also check out Den’s tea 3.00 sampler! You get a 3.00 coupon on your first order as well so if you do order the sampler is free. Its a nice sampler too with GREAT teas!

Verdant Tea also now has samplers – check them out on here – they are AMAZING teas and a great company.

There are so many really to try lol – its hard to decide where to go.
I love Della Terra so good choice there too!

Teavivre is another great one!
Sounds like you are well on your way!
Teajo and I am new acquaintances but so far enjoying them very much.

Anyway – again welcome to Steepster! :)

Welcome Bonnie. I’m fairly new to Steepster also. It’s very friendly and alot of fun. My reviews are much more basic than many of the regulars, but I get the impression that people don’t mind and they welcome anyone who wants to be involved, as long as they’re respectful. I’ve also learned a lot. I discovered (and ordered from) Teavivre, Verdant, 52teas, and Red Leaf so far.

Your impression is right, we absolutely don’t mind. Your tasting note is for you; we just happen to be able to enjoy it, too. =)
