Merry Christmas, if celebrating. Welcome to a holiday TeaDay. I hope your day is special.

Please share what is in your cup with us this TeaDay.

Yesterday, most responders indicated the tea would figure prominantly in their holiday. You can still vote and discuss yesterday's TeaDay.

Today's TeaPoll and discussion topic. Did you receive any TeaRelatedGifts this "holiday season?" Please share your TeaGifts you received with your cyber TeaFriends.

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

No tea gifts wanted, solicited, or received.
Thanks, TeaChat community, for the camaraderie all year. Here's wishing you all the cozy warmth of friends and family in this season and, of course, lots of wonderful tea!

Merry Christmas all,

Not sure yet on the tea gifts. I'll find out this morning at 0800 when I get off work.

Hey, only the real Santa Claus would work a schedule like that on Christmas Eve!

If I count teabucks, I have already converted some in teaware (two sets of chataku (saucers) two canisters), eight tea packages and I will soon order from Ippodo some matcha, gyokuro, sencha and bancha.

My older brother got me a teapot so I wouldn't have to use my ingenuitea all the time.

I also got some awesome teacups.

I highly doubt it. Just fragrant gifts that I know about. A box of Minorien Aloeswood and a bottle of Heeley Cardinal. I seem to owe my Christmas this year to Victoria since she was the one to turn me on to incense and the Heeley line of fragrances. Thanks Vic. I wanna smell like Saffron now so you'll have to give me some more recommendations.

Hope everyone has a great Holiday.

Merry Christmas everyone!

No tea gifts yet, perhaps tomorrow when I see the rest of my family!

Enjoyed some Yunnan Gold with my father-in-law this morning which was lovely despite my cold!

Merry Christmas everyone.
With our immediate family we spend gift opening X-mas Eve.
We have 6 Grandchildren ages from 1 to 7 and what a joy watching them open their presents.
In my cup I have a Yunnan Noir while waiting for Grandma to get up so we can share our gifts to each other.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday!

Yesterday I received an order from Adagio (super-fast shipping as usual), including a sample of the new Yunnan Noir. I'm sipping that now and enjoying it very much.

Merry Christmas, Everyone!

And you, you are a thousand miles away,
