Happy TeaDay TeaFriends. Please drop in throughout the day and share what is in your cup.

This past "weak"end we discussed whether we felt we were stronger or weaker brewers. You can still vote and discuss the weakend topic.

Today's TeaPoll and discussion topic. It is holiday shopping time in many cultures. Often we begin to also work of our own holiday wish lists. So, have you begun TeaGift shopping for yourself? Please share.

I am looking forward to sharing this TeaDay with everyone. Bottoms up.

I like Christmas because it is a good excuse for buying tea ware for myself.

I need to control myself his year, already made several orders, I feel little bit selfish, because I did not even start to buy gifts for my family :( .

Despite my resolution to buy no more tea/teaware until after christmas, in the last three weeks i have bought four new teapots. But now i have to stop for real. I am about halfway done with christmas shopping, everyone that told me what they want has been bought for but i have quite a few who wont tell me what they want so they will probably get gift cards. I took a chance and asked for tea/teaware for christmas from myfamily I included websites so maybe i will get lucky and have good tea under the tree.

Earl grey de la creme this morning, kind of wish i didnt have half a pound of this sitting in the cabinet but it was free so i may as well drink it, plus it lets me save the good stuff for days i have time to really enjoy it. Especially now when im not supposed to be buying any more tea
