Welcome kymidwife to teachat!
I am also looking forward to next time around. By than I'll probably have a good stash of different pu along with lots of other goodies to share.
Reminds me of that scene in Mel Brook's movie with Count 'de 'Monet
King Louis XVI: "Everything's sooooo greeeeeeeennnnn!"

I got the box! There is soooo much in there already. More than I expected.

I may need to up the amount I was planing on adding just to keep up with you guys. I can really smell that Russian Czar. I haven't had too much time to play with it yet, and this weekend is going to be kinda busy but I hope to have some time on Sunday. I also hope I can get my dad to come down so he can play too! I think tea may be one of the few things that can bribe him to drive into the city.

Teas for trade:

A word of caution based on my own tea experience: more is not always better. There is such a thing as too much.

LavenderPekoe, do try the Hatsumi: 1g to 2oz, 160°F, 45s, 25s, 45s, 1:15m, 3m... It is beautiful.

What was wrong w/you two?! The box was fun while it was here. I got to try a lot of teas that I normally wouldn't have & put some stuff away to try later. Can't get the nerve yet to try the pu. May need moral support that day.

I think I was thinking I have too many samples and things to try already.
And that is true. - Still I love to get in on the fun!
