Loose Leaf
Before I get to my post… Happy 31st Birthday Steven!
I’ve been telling my favorite coworker that I would like to try loose leaf tea and she got me this neat IngenuiTEA Teapot and some loose leaf tea for Christmas!
This teapot is so cool. Have you ever seen anything like it? I hadn’t! You put the loose leaf tea in, then add the hot water, let it steep, then put it on a cup and it pours in to the cup! I made a video for you. Ha ha.
I am really digging this rooibos tea she gave me called “eggnog.” It’s funny though – I love it, but the smell reminds Steven of the smell of pipe tobacco before you smoke it! We have really different tastes in tea!
Do you like loose leaf tea? What kind?
I am excited to go to the store and get some new stuff to try. I did ask my coworker to bring me some more of this eggnog tea (she got it in her hometown, where she is now for the holiday).

Very cool! I put together a really cool (I think) “tea themed” gift basket for my assistant for Christmas and one of the kinds of tea I got was rooibos (variety) and when I was putting together the basket last night I thought “this smells like tobacco!! I hope this tastes OK”
Happy birthday, Steven!
I’ve seen those cups – they look really fun!
I’ve never had loose leaf tea before. I only drink hot tea when I’m sick, though.
Happy Birthday, Steven! Have a great day!

That’s a pretty nifty teapot! I love how it pours right into the cup!
I just barely got into loose leaf tea. Got my first glass tea steeper the other day and have yet to give it a try (it looks similar to yours). They opened a store at the mall here called Teavana, which I planned to get the loose leaf tea from.
And a very happy birthday to Steven.
Happy Birthday Steven!!!
That is pretty cool!! I have never seen anything like that before!!

My coworker has a little teapot for loose leaf tea but it isn’t the same as the one you have. His has a plunger to push the loose leaf to the bottom so it doesn’t get in your cup when you pour it. He had this amazing Jasmine tea that I tried once. It was expensive but incredible! I should ask him what it is so I can let you know.
Loose leaf tea is so much better. I have this goji berry tea that is ridiculously amazing, and a toasted walnut green tea thats pretty fantastic too. I love it.
Okay that’s pretty awesome. I’ve been drinking loose leaf for years and have never seen anything quite like that.
Happy Birthday to Steven!
I really don’t like rooibosch tea, something about it really puts me off…
I do use loose leaf tea occasionally but I am mostly too lazy…that pot looks ingenious!
