As we’ve mentioned a few times, once we’ve created a new tea, we are left with the product photo batches and samples – with little use for them here. This is also happening to older teas as we update our photos and posts. For the samples of Simply Tasty Teas, Continue Reading →
Back in late December, Mister Tea and I were having a Doctor Who day with a couple friends. I was having a day where I wasn’t entirely satisfied with the current array of teas, as far as what was wanted and what seemed right. I’d grudgingly allowed myself to run Continue Reading →
