I'm still drooling over the Adagio site I mentioned above - those fruit flavored teas sound YUMMY. But indulging any more of my new "hobby" (Chris started teasing me after my second cup of tea) will have to wait until a few more paydays have passed.
Now I also have an excuse to buy some pretty teacups, LOL.

Tell me about it! I'm still trying to find my financial footing as a retiree, so I'm operating in penny-pinching mode. I'm trying not to buy any more tea right now -- I have plenty to experiment with! -- but most of those that I bought were embarrassingly cheap at those stores I mentioned. Oh, another place, although I don't know if you have one, is the Super H-Mart, a Korean market chain. They have lots of tea. And one more thing -- although I am perfectly aware there are lots of ways to heat water, this electric kettle I bought is surely the most convenient way. Target has them cheap, and honestly, I put water in it and turn it on just about every time I walk in the door now. Even if I change my mind and decide not to have any tea it doesn't hurt anything and I don't have to worry about it because it turns off as soon as the water boils.
