kraitIt's time, and more than time, for my annual Cards and Tea post!
For anyone who's new to my journal, every year I offer to send cards and/or tea to anyone who's interested. You don't have to follow me, and you don't have to send me anything! This is my 'thank you' to fandom at large for being a wonderful place.
Here's the poll for 2019 Cards and Tea. As usual, all responses are locked for my eyes only, to protect names and addresses. (Reminder: please don't forget to include a name that goes above your address!)
The fine print: Feel free to discuss your tea preferences in the comments, as well as any particular things I might need to know about mailing (e.g. if you'll be out of town during X period and unable to receive mail, etc.)
I generally have black teas, though there's a few greens and herbals in the mix so if you're into those be sure to sing out! (If you are brave enough to want three ounces of something called "Reindeer Fuel", be especially sure to sing out! It was an accidental acquisition and I am emphatically not a mate fan.)
This post and poll will remain active throughout December (and quite possibly into January), so never fear it's too late to sign up - though of course your card/tea may arrive after the holiday. :D
(If you are one of the people who would like to send tea as well as receive it, thank you! I love non-sweet black or white teas. Plain teas or teas with various flavours are welcome, but I'm not a fan of anise/liquorice, vanilla, cinnamon, or very sweet fruits, e.g. papaya.)

Chocolate-covered candied ginger is tasty!), but all together I'm not convinced.' And that's without adding in the mate, which I can't smell directly but can definitely imagine the taste of. :D
