Takeya Modern 16 oz is the perfect water bottle. It's made of glass, which make cleaning very easy while avoiding nasty toxins and/or plastic smells (I'm very sensitive to smells). The cap is virtually indestructible. The silicone sleeve keeps water cool, while acting as an anti-slip grip. Finally, this will always…

Probably the best decision you will make this holiday season! We got ours last christmas and have played it every evening when we are not going out, which means ~4 times a week.

The integration that Apple has permitted is such a piece of shit that I have uninstalled all of them. For various reasons, the keyboard always keeps switching back, and often disappears altogether. The default keyboard, while highly antiquated, works.
The Wii U and all Wii U games are great deals already.
A BIG problem with the Vitamixes that no one bothers to mention is that you can't put them on your counter since they don't fit under regular kitchen wall cabinets. Kitchen cabinets are usually 18" above the counter, and all Vitamix blenders are 20"+. So unless you have a kitchen island and you are willing to waste…

I was going to recommend this too. It's indispensable once you use it, actually. Works for 1 mug (1 1/2 tsp) onwards. I use it in combination with t-sacs. I got mine from my local shop (tealuxe) - they exclusively use these exact spoons in that shop.

I have the Bodum Assam with the SS filter, and I can confirm that it's amazing. Pretty easy to clean too, given what it is. I hate tea balls because they don't let the tea open up as much, and this is perfect. I do think the SS upgrade is worth it, since I don't like the idea of hot water with a plastic filter.
Forgot to add that I have almost entirely stopped buying pre-made tea bags after I found these (except for some Republic of Tea varieties). I usually carry pre-made 6 bags of tea with me in a small tin . I drink about 3 cups per work day, and the other 3 are incidental/for sharing. These bags are excellent for that.

Great resource for the very tiny percentage of the world's population that actually has the huge resources needed to migrate to another country in search of what's best for them.
But black tea with raspberries or green tea with apples is still tea, isn't it?
I also recommend the Blue Flower Earl Grey and of course the Creme de la Earl Grey, which is the blue flower version but with a creamy twist. Absolutely incredible.
If you have your English Breakfast with milk - as it is traditionally had - you are having flavored tea!
That's your problem right there. None of the flavored teas I mentioned are sweet. Caramel teas smell of caramel without the sweet taste. That's the beauty of flavored tea.
I usually buy in-store, but have bought online once when I lived away for a couple of years. I don't remember having any problems. It's a tiny store, but the staff is really friendly, so if you have any questions, you could always call them. They also seem to have good shipping-related reviews on Facebook. I also…
I hope you have tried some caramel teas before you make this silly declaration. It's easy to dismiss it as a passing fad, perhaps, but tea has traditionally always been flavored with additives. Only a fool would insist on drinking some imaginary ideal of 'pure' tea.
If you think Earl Grey is disgusting, you deserve to keep drinking pasta water.
Yes and no. If you want plain green tea (tastes like pasta water to me), then Asian markets are good. The thing that the websites listed above (and others like tealuxe.com) are good for is flavored tea - everything from your basic Earl Grey (bergamot) to more complex caramels, oranges, apples, roses, etc.
