I'm sure some of y'all remember Davis.
She just scored a second interview at Teavana. :)
I know a few of you work there- any tips for her?
And to D- GOOD LUCK!
Customers revolt as Twinings changes the flavour... →
I’m actually curious to try the new blend to see if it’s as bad as I hear it is.
Edit from Abby: WHAT? WHAAAAT?? I GO AWAY FOR A WEEK AND THIS SHIT HAPPENS. *grumble* Good thing I found Tazo EG for three bucks at Wegman’s…

The world's most expensive tea is Tieguanyin.
It’s an oolong and rarer blends have been sold at $93 per ounce.

And then there was one.
Well, at least for a week. I’ll be at the helm alone for the next eight days as Abby is taking a short leave of absence. I’ll do my very best to keep things tidy around here for when she gets back. That means no raucous parties or borrowing the car unless it’s an emergency :P

Off topic question: Anyone been on a cruise?
I’m leaving for a Carnival cruise tomorrow, and I’m kinda freaked out. Has anyone been on one or can give me a few tips about what to bring/ expect? :) It would be much appreciated.

I've plowed through two ounces of the Blueberry...
Normally that would take me a month or so.
I blame the Mainer in me.
bythebear asked: I share your feelings! I have a Teavana infuser/canister, and it's amazing, but it seems that any kind of Tea that's not Teavana is so tough to clean out.
Nonetheless though, love my infuser. : )

Dear blueberry rooibos tea,
You are a bitch and a half to clean out of my infuser.

What tea-related items can you not live without?
Do you have a favorite tea pot? Mug? Or just a tea you can’t stop drinking?
Submit pics or just tell us something about it. :)

Does the tea you drink depend on your mood?
For example, I have a large stash of various teabags in an old hatbox-type thing. If I’m waking up, I usually just go for Earl Grey. If I need to get crap done, I drink a ton of Lemon Lift. If I need to relax, I’ll have some Bedtime from Yogi.
EREK, on the other hand, just drinks Earl Grey White or Creme, so far as I know. Of course he can always feel free to dispute my claims. :p

Tazo Awake + Donettes = Yum.
iconsidermyself asked: Okay when you heat your tea in the microwave do you heat it in the mug that you're going to drink it from? Because that's what ruins microwaved tea for me. There's something about having the entire mug be heated up along with the water that I don't like. Even when I'm reheating a half-drunk cup of tea, I put the kettle on again and add fresh hot water to the old cup. And...
whatevachild answered your question: How do you heat up your tea water?
crack lighter and a spoon
Dude. You win.
