Any chance that I could be put right behind GeekGirl? Without knowing what my money situation looks like I'm a bit apprehensive about participating, but since she and I both live in Portland the shipping would be cheap and I'm thinking that the worse case scenario would be that we could meet somewhere in town for a hand off (if she doesn't object).
Ok ABx, GeekGirl is right, I did a switcharoo for you!
That would be so cool if you could meet up!

Guys, I haven't sent the box yet. The reason is I'm not satisfied with one of the oolongs I had planned to send so am roasting it. It's a Shan Lin Xi from Teahome, and has been open for a year, so is stale. But I know the tea quality is good and don't want to misrepresent Teahome with a stale tea so trying to resurrect it. Almost there.....
Pict tomorrow, then mail. (if this next roast cycle doesn't work I'll just not include the tea...)

Box Pass Photo #1
Here's the seed, should be enough to get the box started.. packing/mailing as we speak.
This box pass is a godsend, my tea area was getting so I was stacking samples. lol.
I would like to propose we leave a gaiwan in the box at all times for people to play with. Obviously everyone has to agree to that. ;D

Inventory:
--------------
brown gaiwan
green gaiwan
glass sharing pitcher
fish cups and sharing pitcher
daiso cups
flower cup
mini display mats
Large Black YiXing pot (forgot to put in photo)

Funny sidenote - When I told Shuiwen what the tea was for she wouldn't sell me the Traditional Ali Shan I had been planning to send. She said 'Those people brew american style, they won't understand that tea. don't waste your money on them.' ROFLMAO. I took her advice and just got some for myself.
