Re: Happy 11th Chip ... and The Tea Journey began...
Late to the reply parade.....but still drinking lots of tea, and currently enjoying some Den's organic sencha from my Split Fire Scalloped Yunomi by Bill Perrine, from a TeaChat special offer. I owe the Yunomi to TeaChat, obviously, but less obviously, the sencha I am drinking from it: it was posts here that kept me going past my early not-very-good experiences with green teas in general, finally figuring them out so I could enjoy them, and Chip being one of the prime senchaholics did a lot to inspire that process. I'm brewing it up in a kyusu from Artistic Nippon, a seller I discovered here on TeaChat (again, Chip seemed to have many lovely things from that shop that prompted that first fateful visit). And the tea tray from Mirka Randova is from a pottery studio that I discovered via a TeaChat special offer. I could go on....to the cups I shared with a visitor (a job applicant) at work two days ago, from a vendor & potter I was introduced to on TeaChat.....hope she takes the job, we really need the help!
Anyway, thank you, Chip, for you part in making this such a welcoming place, and an important part of my tea journey! A toast-with-sencha to 11 years here, and many more moments of tea happiness online and off!
