SwapBot - International Hot Chococlate Sachet #3

Almost totally forgot about this one! I have just reeived a request from Malaysia to re-send my package because it was not received yet however the same package to my second partner in England was received. Hmmm... should I wait another week? Maybe thier customs are holding it or thier mail is slow? I told her I would re-send so that my ratings wouldn't be tarnished. I received my pacakge to from my partner in Poland and what great surprise because not only was there the 2 sachets of hot chocolate but there were 3 extra teas and some cutie stickers too. I have given Aleksandra a heart as well as a BIG 5 rating for her great swap.  Thanks!!

Tea Swap #160 - 5 Herbal tea's

I have got SO MUCH tea now, even more than I can drink in a month. I am definatley going to have to take a break from tea swapping for awhile just so that I can catch up. It is coming summer and the amount of tea I drink will drop as the weather gets nicer. It seems like a winter thing to me to have a nice hot cup of ta on a cold night. Am I right? Well, money is getting tight too and so I will eventually have to cut back on my swaps (as much as it kills me to do so!) Anyway, here I have some new swaps adding to the collection! % herbal teas which is right up my alley cuz most of the teas I swap are herbal. Go a great package from Erin on the US including something called Trader Joe's Bedtime tea. Sounds cool. I have also received a swap frm Josey in California. Josey girl, you are the best trader! Always on time and always my favorites! Thanks to both ladies for the great tea! Still having a little struggle to get my tea out for this swap, will attempt after this blog post. Got new teas though to send to everyone so mine arn't always the same Stash brand anymore. :S

Sweets RR - Group 9 Gums

Nom, nom, nom! Who doesn't like gum? So I joined this RR because you got to send your partners 5 types of gums. I have receieved some now so I can post. Got my first package from Spain, 6 pieces of gumballs and a extra Lots-a-fizz candy. his are always good. the gumballs cme squished flat but still work and taste good all the same. Thankst Amapola for those. As well, DaeRiin also sent me some gums, more than I had sent to anyone else but there was a statement saying you could send more if you chose. I did not due to mail costs. I a hoping thatmy partners did not feel cheated by the lack of gum I sent compared to others. I feel there should be a better specification, not just "if you want" you can send more. I don't think I will be signing up for aher swap like this again and I should have given it more thought before I signed up. I had to go buy 5 different gums, most of which I would not chew myself. I only got them for variety purposes and to give someone else a different taste of gum from Canada (this is the reason for the swap) Now each of those packages come with 20 pieces so now I am left over with this gums that taste too sweet. Kind of a waste to me. I guess I could give it to my room mates child. The swap is a great idea but ony a one-time deal for me to see how it went. Not easy like the tea swaps!
