expanding my horizons

by teabunnie » Jan 3rd, '10, 22:11

Hello!

I've had an on/off relationship with tea over the past five years. I was lucky enough to find a boyfriend who was also interested in--but not yet ready to commit to--tea, and we've started exploring it together. A trip to Teavana in Oklahoma City converted us to the awesomeness that is tea.

Aside from that one trip to Teavana, my tea knowledge and experience is very limited...mostly to Bigelow, Celestial Seasonings, and Twinings Lady Grey. But I am eager to experiment and learn! For our 2 year anniversary, my boyfriend and I went to A Pigment of Your Imagination in Lawton, OK, and painted a teapot. It is glazed, fired, and waiting for us to use it. Now all we need is tea.

I'm open to recommendations if anyone cares to offer some.

Welcome TB to TC! Welcome to the world of tea.

Perhaps try some samplers from Adagio to venture out into other areas of loose leaf.

Enjoy, hope to see you around the forum.
