Still around just not a lot of variety in the cupboard these days. I miss the types of tea shops that were around like 3-4 yrs ago. Most either don’t shop to canada without paying a billion dollars for shipping or they are “local” and have stevia in every blend. My US tea mule is moving across the country in a few weeks and let’s be honest, the border isn’t really open. sigh just depressing really lol

I would say that Teavivire is still the best place to get tea shipped to Canada from China. It’s been awhile since I’ve ordered though because I haven’t been drinking much tea lately which is why my stash is so big at the moment.

I love teavivre and yunnan sourcing for straight teas….i’m seriously lacking in flavoured though :(

A friend shipped me stuff from Silk Road as it’s cheaper for her to ship it to me than it is for me to buy it. It also made a great Christmas gift.

Miss you, Sil.

Also, the gazillion dollars in shipping and exchange charges etc. seem to be rising, so there’s that.

I feel like this shift to stevia happened mostly in just the past couple of years, too, so it caught me off guard – like it was gradual and then suddenly all at once. Sorry that getting flavored teas has gotten so hard, that sucks. :-(

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
