Thanks again for joining this swap for our Farmgirls who enjoy a cuppa now and then.
Let's get swapping - here are our partners:
Gail (GailMN) – Laura (LauraBell)
Marie (charunga) Received – Jean (JeanP) Received
Andrea (AndreaPA) Received – Vanessa (AudraRose) Received
Kathy (isewbernina) – Shelly (Sassymomof2)
Please send your mailing address through e-mail rather than here. If you haven't had a chance, share your tea preferences with your partner or post the info here in our thread.
Do you prefer a tea cup/saucer or a mug (and let us know if you prefer vintage or new)?
What kinds of tea do you like – hot, iced – herbal, caffeinated – any allergies or dislikes – is loose leaf tea okay or do you prefer wrapped tea bags?
Do you like treats with your tea? If so, please let us know if you have any favorites or items to avoid.
Suggestions for your package:
Tea, treats, cup or mug, recipe for a sweet treat, or anything else you would like to include for your partner to have a nice relaxing tea party. Possibilities could be a pretty napkin, vase for flowers, tea bag holder, etc. Let’s make our tea time nice and have fun. It's always a treat to see what everyone receives.
Packages should be mailed out by April 22nd (a little extra time just in case due to Easter festivities).
1. Jean - JeanP
2. Vanessa - AudraRose
3. Gail - GailMN
4. Marie - charunga
5. Andrea - AndreaPA
6. Kathy - isewbernina
7. Shelly - Sassymomof2
8. Laura - LauraBell
We are hoping to get our monthly tea swaps started up again – hopefully this swap will help us get back in the swing of enjoying a cup of tea between Farmgirls!

Hi Andrea and Tea Swappers :)
I have reached out to everyone hoping that packages have arrived safely. Hoping our swappers are enjoying their tea and just have been busy in the spring sunshine.
If packages are still MIA, please let me know and we can do some sweet tea angeling.

Hi Vanessa. I hope you enjoyed the derby! I always forget Big Lots. Thanks for letting me know.
I'm sad to see there are no more pictures posted. I hope everyone got their packages.

Sorry this is so late. Thank you so much Vanessa for the delicious goodies. I love the Whippets! I haven't had them in years and I hate to admit it but they are gone! The lemon Mr Cake is so good and just the right size. I will be looking for them in the store. I'm looking forward to trying the scone recipe. I tried two of the teas so far and they are really good. I also love the fabric square , infuser and the tea pouch is just right for my purse. Thanks again!

I'm a little late getting this posted. A big THANK YOU to Marie (Churunga) for a delightful tea package that included some of my favorite Stoopwwafels -- Yum! And a very big thanks so much for the Glazed Lemon Cake Tea. I received it once before and never could find it at any of my local stores. It is my absolute all time favorite tea. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!
Farmgirl hugs,
jean

Hi Gail :)
I mailed your package today - I'll e-mail your tracking number. It said it should be there by Friday - my fingers are crossed that it will make it there sooner.
Thanks for being patient with me - I am on the mend and starting to feel much better.
Have a happy week,
Laura

I got your package today Andrea! I love the shortbread and Ferrero Roche is one of my favorite chocolates. I can't wait to try the high calcium tea and the lavender tea. The bags you sent will be perfect for when I make Thai iced tea. The color of the darling little teapot is so springlike and I will work the ribbon flower into this year's Derby hat. I can always use the journal, notepad and napkins. The recipe for vanilla cookies sounds yummy I'll make them soon. The magnet is on my fridge right now. I know of a special person to send the wallet card to.
You made my day!

Hi my Tea Swapping friends!
Just checking in - I have been under the weather - blaming it on burning the candle at both ends. Found out yesterday it's the flu - so be careful out there! I had my flu shot and still ended up with it. Hoping you all start receiving your tea goodness soon - I will be a little delayed sending mine out as I was told I should stay in for a few days so I don't share anything.
Hope you all have had a wonderful Easter,
Laura

Happy Monday!
Just checking in on everyone - I was out and about last week at a quilt retreat and then visiting my son's future university this weekend.
I managed to get our partners posted before I left for the weekend. Hoping everyone has had time to curl up with a cup of tea and start dreaming of the fun we are going to have.
Let me know if you need anything or have any questions!

Hi everyone :)
I am super excited about our swap - we have a great group already! I will be at a quilt retreat for the next few days but will be keeping an eye on our thread. When I am home I will close our swap and get our partners posted.
Thanks everyone for joining - what fun this will be!

Laura, please count me. I love the tea swap. My favorite tea is peppermint iced tea which I make year round. My family loves it and I make it by the gallon almost every day. I use a thermo cup to keep it cold. I prefer bags. I would love to have treats with my tea also.
Thank you for making this swap for us!
