Another Traveling Tea Box?!?!?!

Emilie: Why don’t you ship the box to MelissaTea now and while she goes through it we can re-organize. TTB-C just re-started, and a number of people said they wanted to drop out of both boxes. Others said they want to stay with one or both boxes, and we added a bunch of new people. (MelissaTea is still in, so sending this box to her works)

If people want, I’m willing to manage the re-organization. I’m retired and have time on my hands.

Does that mean there are spots open for this box too? Is it okay to sign up for both or is that being a traveling tea box hog? :)

This is a weird box because we wound up having two boxes with one mailing list. The other is TTB-C, which I started. I don’t feel like I have the right to make unilateral decisions for this box without some sort of feedback from the other participants, so want to put off any decision. That’s one reason why I wanted the box to just move to the next person on the list – to gain some time.

If you want, I can accept the box next (again).

Emile – I put in to start following you. Follow me and I’ll send you a message with the address. Thanks

Sounds good to me. It’s just been sitting here, because I’ve been too busy to really try much, so you’ll probably get more from having it than I will!

MelissaTea said

Looking forward to it.

I got notice that I have a package and I’m pretty sure it’s the tea box. I’ll try to collect it tomorrow!!!

Yes, the box has arrived in Western, NY. Thank you Emilie!
It is so packed with tea. I don’t know how I’ll put everything back in there.

I didn’t have a very good response to my PM poll of members of this box. The only people who responded were those who had already said they want to repeat. Therefore, we need new members.

Please let me know if you are interested in joining this box. We need about half a dozen new members. If we get too many responses, I’ll filter based upon a formula I developed (I’m an engineer) based upon how active you are in Steepster.

We’ve added 8 new members. They are: Dustin, Amanda Wilson, khamilton611, Suziqzer, TraceyC, CHeri, Flyawaybirdie, and Marzipan.

The following existing members have confirmed they are still interested:
ChuckieRoy (founder), MelissaTea, Emile, Shadowfall, Moraiwe, and Dr Jim.

If you are an existing member, we can still add you to the rotation, but since you have had several opportunities to renew, and haven’t said anything, I’m assuming a lack of interest.

I’ll try to put together a new list in order of delivery. Until then, MelissaTea can just enjoy the box.

I’m excited! I’m sending you my address Dr Jim!

I’d like to join if it’s not too late. I thought I had put my name in for this but apparently I didn’t.

Dr Jim said

We’re kind of at the upper limit for this box. You may be thinking of TTB-C; you ARE signed up for that one. That box and this one started out with the same membership, but are now diverging, which I think is a good thing.

Thanks! Sorry to bother you. I’ll just hang my head in embarrassment and drink some tea!
