Here it is!

The thread to talk all about our ongoing TEA SWAP. How is it on your end? Did you decide on the variety of tea to send? Do you have your envelopes addressed? Are you having fun yet?

(By the way, I tried to title this thread "But occasionally....I wanna talk about TEA..." Remember? To the tune of Toby Keith's..."I like talking about you-ou-ou-ou usually....but occasionally, I wanna talk about ME, wanna talk about I, wanna talk about number one....Oh well, That title was too long for the subject line!)

Elaine, Don't worry about it! I think it has been nice to receive the teas over a period of time...it makes it easier to savor each one individually! Now, I've got to find out where to find some of these unusual, delicious varieties.
Thanks all you wonderful Farmgirls!

Sorry it took so long but I sent the last half of my teas out this morning. Thanks to everyone for sending the teas, this has been a lot of fun!

Thank you all for the wonderful teas and the mail. I don't usually get a lot of mail and when I do it's bills! My tea consumption has gone way up trying the different types.

Thank you my friends for putting me on your "ladies who tea" list. Hot fragranced tea is so calming! And little treasures in the mail are so reassuring.

So glad you like the poem! Though I didn't write it myself, it came from the heart!

Don't worry for one minute, Debra. It is kind of nice that the teas are all spread out. Makes it more exciting to go pick up the mail! So much nicer than the electric bill. LOL

And thanks so much, Grace, I got my yoyo magnet today. I love it!

I saw your blog post, Bridget. That was so neat. I'm going to post mine too ... at least the ones I haven't already enjoyed! I'm drinking Vanilla Chai Tea right now. Mmmmmm! Does life get an better than this?

Thanks to all of you! What a wonderful selection of teas. So many lovely notes and Katmom's yoyo magnet too. I really enjoyed seeing what everyone's fav teas were.

This has been an incredibly rough month..My husbands broken ankle, debt drowning us, not getting a big client we had bid on, sick with the stomach flu etc... so it was such a blessing to daily be receiving mail from all of you farmgirls! I haven't sent mine out yet- I once again forgot to get envelopes. but I have stamps and I have the tea..
thank you all for making this month more bearable..

Blessings, Debra

This is so wonderful. The teas just keep on coming and coming! Right now I'm enjoying honey vanilla herb. Yum. I also loved the poem that came with it from Lea:
"If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea
But since I can't, I'm sending you
My favorite cup of tea."
And how about that Yogi Licorice Mint? That was to die for. And the Ginger Snappish I just adored. Oh, and the Eggnog Tea...loved it. Fun, fun, fun.
Oh, and Erin. We've all sent out our teas on this swap, but you better believe we'll have another one!!

I am too Lea!!! It's so fun
