Tea

Some time ago, [livejournal.com profile] mythosidhe mentioned Zhena's Gypsy Tea, and upon finding it at Wegman's and Whole Foods and other expensive grocery stores where I shop for gluten-free goods, I tried it and was hooked.

I was going to effuse over it extensively, but dang it! They changed their packaging! Sigh. The old tins were way more cute. I might see if I can pick up a few more varieties at Wegman's when I go visit Viv, because... wah. The old ones were way cuter.

Like so. Which I would totally just order from Amazon, but I seriously don't need six of them.

Oh man! I loved the cheery hippie vibe of the old tins. The new ones look like they're trying to be Tazo or Stash or Republic of Tea or something. Not cool.

They did what? That sucks. I have most of the older tins for the flavors I like (I can always refill the old tins with new bags, yes?), but I still need the purple one for Ambrosia White Plum! I'll have to stop into the creepy hippie health food store and see if they have any of the old ones left. That's the only place I know around here that sells them, but I hate going in there because everyone is so skinny and...vegetarian-looking o_O On the other hand, it gives me a good excuse to take a walk this afternoon!
