I received two tea parcels this morning.

One was from Courtney who was kind enough to send me a small surprise package for a few David’s Tea samples which was a very wonderful surprise. :)

My second parcel was from Mercuryhime which had my Raspberry Lemon Black tea from Ovation which I bought part of and was kind enough to send overseas. Also had a few gift samples thrown in. :)

I got a White Lion order yesterday that included some “iced tea bags” that were supposed to make 4 quarts of tea. Well I didn’t have a pitcher that big, so I decided to open the bag and split the tea between two infusers. BIG mistake! The tea was so fine it went right through my infuser – oops. I ended up salvaging 2 quarts from the mess. I also got some loose tea that I haven’t tried yet.

Harney and Sons order has arrived! Obviously i opened the tins immediately, Vanilla Comoro smells like the greatest tea in the world, Soho, Paris (of course), the Valentine’s one and Florence all smell amaaaazing too! I cannot WAIT to try them all, possibly all tonight… (someone will be getting up a million times in the middle of the night :P)

I was tracking this UPS shipment for a WEEK on my phone, finally it said it arrived and I couldn’t wait to get home!

Got my DavidsTea order, and they didn’t include my free tin. Canada post is gonna make a killing this year off how many times they have to send me things again.
