Read My Lips

Holy crap, I didn’t think you would be that close to finishing it already. Didn’t you also buy it for swaps?

I’ve yet to purchase that much of one tea in one go haha.

7 oz?! That’s impressive.

I sorta had huge cups of it everyday for a few weeks. :P
And I barely swapped any of it away. So much for that plan!

Now to get through the 7oz of Ceylon Star that I also bought on impulse a few months afterwards.

Wowwww. That’s a lot!

Yeah.! Sil made fun of me for a long time for buying it, but it was $12 or something and my brainjust went OMG SALE! I didn’t realize it was 7 oz until I got home. :D

WOOHOO! That’s awesome. :)

I would LOVE to have 7 oz of this stuff! I love it! Even my two year old is nuts for it. He bugs me for sips every time he sees me drinking it lol. A mini tea connoisseur in the making :) . I’m enjoying a nice big mug of it as I type this and I would never swap this either, it’s just too good! I really hope I can find this in bulk because it will be a staple for sure!

Keep an eye out on DavidsTea’s web specials page! You might be able to grab it there. They change the selection every so often.

Okay so I totally bought marshmallows with the intention of dropping one in a few of my blends as a sweetener. And I totally ate all the marshmallows before trying them in a single tea! Gotta buy more marshmallows! :D

I have a habit of doing that sometimes :D the whole reason I started buying marshmallows was because Stacy (Butiki Teas) said she bought a bag of marshmallows and ate them all before blending tea. Since then I’ve had a marshmallow craving that is not going away :D It’s all Stacy’s fault :D

Me too!! It’s totally her fault. =P

Oh no :( I hope it doesn’t turn out as bad as you’re afraid it will~

:) I hope so too! Thanks Michelle <3

=( Hugs.

P.S. Drawception is hilarious.

:) Thanks Nik! I agree 100% :D

I’m so sorry. I self destruct when I screw up. Like being eaten alive. Horrible. Most of the rest of the world doesn’t give those kinds of errors a second thought. Shows that you are a person with integrity! Hold your head up high, I’m proud of you for caring!

I hope it turns out okay! If it makes you feel any better, I made an $8.4M dollar mistake a little while back ;)

Bonnie – Thank you. That means so much to me, it’s comforting to know we have that in common :) It’s true, there are so many that can just shrug things off – I can’t even fathom! Thank you – your message has truly lifted a weight off my shoulders :) < my grin is much bigger in real life!!

Oh my gosh, thank you Dylan!
Oh my! That is quite a number! It reminds us that we’re only human right? I hope everything turned out alright for you too!

Oh yeah, it was fine. We do a lot of back and forth financial transactions, so it was really just a matter of explaining the back-and-forth.

fingers crossed for you Daisy… don’t forget that employers still hire humans for a reason and that comes with the possibility of screw ups once in a while…As an employer, the fact that you are so concerned about it would teach me a lot about you and would make me want to keep you around :-)

Everyone makes mistakes, hopefully they are aware of that! Good luck!

1700+ cups of tea. Count me amazed!

lol it’s actually more than that if you count them as normal people sized cups…but my cups are uh twice the size..so most of my “cups” are the equivalent of 2 heh

my random arbitrary goal (who doesn’t love those) is to get to 2000 by my birthday and get my cupboard down to 150 by then. uh…not sure either is likely lol

i’m rooting for you!! hah

Wow, 1700!!!!!!! O_o That’s just insane. Congrats!

1700!! My iron level just dropped reading that. ;)

haha this is funny because now you are at 3477 tasting notes – OVER twice as many!!!
and it’s been less than 9 months. averaging approx 180 tasting notes a month, 45 tasting notes a week, 6-7 tasting notes a day, or 1 tasting note every 2.5 hrs of general day time hours. unless you log in your sleep…. perhaps you log in your sleep????

I think she logs in her sleep. ;)

huh never thought about it that way…thanks for bringing it home for me shmiracles lol

Wow, you are a tea machine!!

=0)

Sounds relaxing. I hope it does the trick!

I’ve never heard of a mint allergy before – I feel so sorry for him or her! I am a mint addict. MMMM.

This was THE tea that started me down this path, my very favorite tea for a long time.
Until I found Della Terra’s mint chocolate teas….then this one became kind of meh.

Yeah, it’s interesting. And it’s just peppermint and garden mint. Flavourings as well as the plant. Well. Interesting. Her throat closes up and she can’t breathe, so it really is horrible.

I have mint lotions and aromas and tea and anything else I can get minty. Almost all my lip balm would be awful for her. I used to have a field of mint when I was a kid. It was lovely. It must be hard for her to avoid mint, it is a pretty common aroma/additive. I have a personal loathing of coconut but at least it doesn’t try to kill me!

Boo… sorry it was disappointing. I find it never hurts to overleaf this one, and then you’ll be done it sooner!

Cavo, one cup left! Hopefully it’s more like I remember. :)

Uniquity, she has to get off transit because people are chewing gum, leave cafes because people get mint tea, and recently had to evacuate her shared office because someone came in with mint. She had to go outside the building and get someone to bring her all her things. Allergies suck!

Just finished this as a latte of sorts with Vanilla, Almond milk. Oh and I melted a square of an Aero bar in the milk. It was amazing. I really love this tea.

I felt the same the first time I tried it! It reminded me of chocolate lip smackers (which for me was not a good thing at all!!) and now a absolutely love it! mmmm…

Mm I’m also a fan of this one. @Cattibrie, that latte sounds fantastic!

Could also be that the tea has aged?

where was the tea ? I laughed reading this…this is exactly what I think each time I had a DT …yelling where are you ? …it never answered me !
I am still at the beginning of mt tea journey and drink mostly flavored teas but I have to recognize there are flavours and flavours…and some brands respect the tea base and some not always.unfortunately.

Don’t know I-bloom, don’t think it’s old enough and it wasn’t contaminated by other tea’s etc. either (I’m really careful because I’m very taste sensitive…smells too…the fibromyalgia heightens both). It just doesn’t taste as good to me. Too flavored and the aftertaste becomes SOUR!

I’ve noticed I’ve felt this way about jasmine flavored things. In the beginning of my tea journey I loved them a lot, but now I feel like they almost overpower the tea :(

darn, I was hoping that we could salvage David’s. So sad too bad!

Well Davids has less flavored tea’s and natural tea’s and unflavored tea’s too!

I never had their unflavoured ones but need to try, absolutely.

Read My Lips is a staple for me right now but it serves more as an over-glorified, powerful hot chocolate mix than anything else. I can see where you would get “sour” too. I wish David’s Tea would embrace subtlety and “tea-ness” but I guess that’s not what they’re about.

Your comments about disney cracked me up! Growing up in San Diego, we made the pilgrimage to disney every year (sometimes more, sometimes less…carosel of progress & pirates of the Caribean were always my fav rides). So jump ahead 30 years in the future when me and my kids went to FLorida to visit my folks. We went to Disney, and I was so excited…and it was SO lame. The rides WERE shorter, and my kids were bored. Bummer.

I remember going into Space Mountain and laughing till I cried because the planets looked like giant cookies.

space mountain!! that was my fave ride when I went! the big drop into the darkness, omg that was amazing.
and the cookie planets :P

Pink peppercorns are just too cute to have gravitas :)

this post made my day.

Just like Heaven ;) (Yes, fellow Cure fan here too lol)

Try it with Cinnamon Rooibos Chai – its delightful!

Thanks for the suggestion, I will certainly try that!

Sounds delicious! Will have to try it this way sometime!
