Bio
Retired first grade teacher. I tend to like dessert type/herbal teas as a substitute for sweet treats; flavored black teas and mates to get that energy that I am often lacking ;-p
My husband of 43 years thinks I’m nuts regarding the whole tea thing… but he bought me a Breville for Christmas, so what can I say. :-D
My other interests are reading (books go well with tea :D) and beading. I volunteer at my “old” school teaching reading and I volunteer for the blind. I am trying hard to lose weight ( I have now lost 40 lbs and I’m looking good in my skinny jeans, IMHO) I am now walking about 4.5 miles a day and I am trying to do some core work for about 30 min. 3x a week.
I have been watching Doctor Who for 33years. In case you can’t tell my avatar is two daleks drinking tea! I am always open to swapping Doctor Who books for tea. I have about 120 Doctor Who books that I am eager to send some to a fan. :D Let me know if you would like any books! I love that so many people have begun watching DW!
Also I love swaps, pm me if you’d like to do a swap.
Since I find others’ rating legends helpful, I added my own.
95-100 A once in a lifetime experience; the best there is; will keep this stocked until the cows come home
90-94 First rate; top notch; really terrific; will definitely buy more
80-89 Excellent; likely to become a favorite, will likely buy more
70-79 Very good; would enjoy again, might buy again if in the mood for this particular one or a better, similar version not available or it’s on a really good sale :-)
50-69 Good; wouldn’t pass up if offered, but probably wouldn’t buy again unless craving this particular flavor
Below 50 Meh! Wouldn’t bother drinking it again.

I need to try Morrocan Mint some time. I have read about it repeatedly. Never tried Gunpowder before in any form. On my to-do list!
I’m drinking the Tea Spot’s Moroccan Mint this morning. It’s just such a nice tea blend. Arshess, I could send you a sample of that one, if you wanted.
I’ve had Tea Spot’s Moroccan Mint before and really liked it. I haven’t ordered from them in a long time, maybe when this one runs out, I’ll re-order.
Cheri, that would be lovely! Thank you so much for offering.
I’m happy to return a sample if you see anything in my cupboard you’d like (that I have enough to send a sample of, which is most of them, but just to say…)
It was actually the Moroccan Mint sample that you sent me from The Tea Spot that got me to place my first order with them, carol. I’m really happy with everything I’ve gotten from them. I need to place another order because I’m just about out of Red Rocks and that’s a go to night time tea for me.
