New Blends! :D Woot!

Lord of the Rings fans, get excited, because I’m bring your Second Breakfast to Rivendell! ;)

Introducing two new LOTR-inspired blends, Rivendell and Second Breakfast!

Our Rivendell blend was inspired by this ethereal place. With a base of sweet Anxi Tieguanyin, roasted cedar leaves, and hand-cut Tahitian vanilla, this tea is the essence of purity.

Second Breakfast: This blend is a tad lighter in body than your average breakfast blend, but a whole lot heavier on the flavor! Smooth, sweet, and thick, Second Breakfast is bursting with berries and chocolate.

Enjoy! :D

Already placed my order! Loved the teas from my previous purchase…I think we need to call you the Tea Whisperer. :)

Hehe, glad you liked them! :) I’m already Tea Whiz of the Woods though! :D

And thank you so much for your order. Your business is very appreciated!

If you take requests for new ideas, a tea based on the Firebird fairy tale would be most awesome! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firebird_(Slavic_folklore)

Jesus Christ, I don’t know how I’m going to hold off on making my first order with you in September if you do awesome nerdy stuff like this. If you end up making blends based on Catherynne M. Valente’s books next, I will be a bankrupt woman.

Hehe, probably not, but I’m open to nerdy suggestions! :)

The inspiration has to hit me first…and waiting for that to happen is the only thing holding me back right now :) haha

I’m looking for a new author to burn through…What do you recommend I start with?

What sort of stuff do you like, Cheri? I read a lot of current SF/Fantasy, so I’d be happy to point some good books in those genres your way.

Cheri select said

Fantasy, urban fantasy, some SF, some fun fiction. I just finished pushing my way through a re-reading on Song of Ice and Fire 1-4, and actually reading 5. I love the books, but there’s soooo much going on and so many character to keep track of that I want something lighter and much less epic.

Also, I tend to pick an author and read everything she/he has written all in a row. I love series books. That was why I asked where you recommended I start, if I were to try Catherynne M. Valente. (I guess that wasn’t clear in my original post….)

Have you read Tamora Pierce?

I haven’t, but she is one of the authors on my radar. I remember reading a preview of one of her books, but I wasn’t really feeling it. Maybe I need to try a different one.

I love Tamora Pierce. She’s one of my favorites.

My signed Song of the Lioness quartet is easily one of my most treasured possessions. The Trickster’s Choice/Trickster’s Queen “series” (it’s only two books) won a boatload of awards and spent a good bit of time on the NYT Bestseller list. They’re a good introduction to her work.

Technically I could make Second Breakfast myself, I have both Ailaoshan and Pine Peak! I wonder if it’s equal parts or what… :P

Oooh. The Second Breakfast sounds tasty. Hope it’ll be in stock when Jabberwocky comes back in stock so I can order both. XD And probly Golden Orchid since the sample I have smells divine (it’s my tea of the night to drink while playing Diablo tonight. XD)

Oh, thank you for reminding me! I need to do a quality check of the stuff that just came in and then Jabbernommy will be back in stock :)

Quality check complete, Jabberwocky is back in action! :D

Nuuuuu! You evil tea blending man. It’s not supposed to be back in stock until I can justify an order. Both tea space wise and money wise. Lol!

TEEHEE! ;-)
