*THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED*
Up for grabs today is The Abaca Tea Box. It is the ultimate gift for an eco-minded individual. That drinks tea. Plus, it has a great story.
"Each Abaca Tea Box is handcrafted by artisans in Southeast Asia . They combine wild grass and abaca plant fibers for a tree-free paper from which the box is made. The buttons are whittled out of coconut shells. Inside the six compartment box are 30 whole leaf biodegradable Tea Pouches in six flavors."
Once the box is empty (I gave my tea to friends so it was like two gifts-one for me, one for them), it makes a great jewelry box, bead box or box for desk knick-knacks. I'm LOVING mine, and it makes the perfect light weight jewelry box.
Plus, In 2007-2008 Mighty Tea Company supported the education of the children of some of the artisans as their way of partnering with them beyond the business platform.
For your chance to win, visit the Mighty Tea Company and then come back and tell me what looks the best to you from their site.
Don't forget to check in with my fellow Tea Party Hostesses for other great giveaways all week long. Some of you may have noticed the "Alice" post below.....it's all part of a fun hunt put on by Mannequin at Fractured Toy. So, be sure to check in with her to see what it's all about.

*I'm kicking off the week with some ME time.
Excuse me while I go curl up with a little Jane Austen and my favorite warm beverage.
Will it be Persuasion or Pride and Prejudice? I haven't decided, but that's the great thing about my complete Jane Austen collection. All Seven of her works are at my finger tips.
I love it so much that tomorrow I'm giving one of you a copy of her complete works.
Have any of you heard of INKA? It's an instant Polish grain beverage made with Organic barley, rye, chicory and beet roots. I LOVE it and I make the perfect cup with one tsp. of Inka, one tsp. of Splenda (sugar substitute) and a TBS. of International Delight Sugar Free French Vanilla creamer. The best part is that the filling beverage is only 20 calories!

Ohh I love the Moroccan Tea Set, so pretty! And the Chocolate Mint Truffle tea sounds YUMMY!!! And and ALL the chocolate loose teas...yeah I like chocolate. LOL!
...sounds delightful!
super fun...i love a tea party!!
Oh, yeah! I forgot to tell you my fave! I'm a fan of green teas, myself!
The Black tea tea box is a beauty as is the green tea, though I am not a fan of green tea, but the box is pretty.
But their teas look amazing (I am a huge tea drinker) and I love their pouches. You have inspired me to send some as gifts!
And great cup of Chai tea and Persuasion seems like a great way to spend a fall afternoon.
I have not yet read Persuasion.
YUM I love tea on those COLD New York winter nights!!!!!
Sounds like fun, Angie!
Nice promo!!
Jay
Ooh, the Bombay Chai and the decaf Earl Gray (why oh why can't I get that here?) sound the best to me! Yum!

Moroccan Tea set
angelina115@hotmail.com
I love this tea box, and can't wait to post my review later this week.
*GASP!* So.much.fun! Can I just say that I LOVE everything in their Teaware section - especially the Moroccan Tea Glasses - grogeous! So glad you're hosting a fabulous party, but I wouldn't expect anything less. I can't wait to check out your fellow partners in crime during nap time! Woohoo!
I like Chai tea. and I'd also like to try the Vanilla Bean Iced Tea (but I mostly just want that Tea Box!!!)
Thanks for the Tea Party, great idea!!
I love tea. I would have to go with one of their samplers.
Which Jane did you decide on? Love her.
Marrakesh Mint!
Really?! I'm the winner? I'd like to thank Angie and all the other hostesses...
wait, that's my acceptance speech. I'm getting ahead of myself. I"ll take any of the herbal teas to share with my MIL.
I'm a bit of a tea addict so I want to try them all. If I had to pick one I'd fall back on my old standby, a black breakfast tea like their organic breakfast.
The Chocolate Mint Truffle tea sounds wonderful.
I like the sampler packages and I think my favorite there is Green and White Tea Variety. This is a fantastic store and I am bookmarking it. Come January, I will be drinking lots of tea. Thanks for the giveaway.
Fancy! They have silken tea pouches!
The Acai Pomegranate Black Decaf sounds yummy!
great samplers-yum
WHAT A GREAT IDEA!!!!!
WHAT A GREAT IDEA!!!!!
I've never seen anything like the Moroccan Tea Set. Everything is beautiful!
I would love to drink the organic Earl Gray at Pemberley.
I was curled up most of yesterday with a endless, steaming cup of tea and the third Twilight book.

I like the Filio Teapot, so different

Chocolate Orange Truffle sounds amazing!
Oooooh! The AperiTea Orange Jasmine Mango Cocktail Mixer. Anybody want to come to a TEA PA-TAAAY??
It all looks SO GOOD to me but what really caught my eye were the cocktail mixers, especially the Chamomile Citrus Berry AperiTea. Me-thinks a girls night in would enjoy this :)
Sounds awesome:-)
I'd like to try the black tea variety pack. Mighty Tea has an awesome product. parvax at aol dot com
Mighty Leaf has good teas. I like their Tropical Green - but I'd love to try the chocolate mint truffle too! mmmmm
I feel better physically when I drink African Rooiboos Tea. Love tea pots, as you can see when you are in my home. There is nothing like a tea party for all of us grown up girls.
Those sliky tea bags make the tea look almost too pretty to use!
I thought the chocolate mint truffle tea sounded good.
Good luck on your first tea party! :)
Wow, lots of fun things going on here. Of course I pick the cocktail mixer, Green Tea Tropical AperiTea. Looks yummy. I think I may buy some even if I don't win anything.
I am a Tea Monster. I consume so much of it daily, I practically have tea leaves growing out of my ears.
Because I have to have them all, the "Master Tea Pouch Sampler" looks good to me.
Thanks for the awesome giveaway - (and for introducing me to another vendor to supply my unsatiable tea addiction)

Tea is a new found love of mine dating back about two years ago :) This sounds sooo good! And Im always up for a jewelery box!
Mate, chocolate or Rooibus (I'm with Cutiebooty on that one everyone should try it).
So is this everyday for a while or once a week or what?
I am sooo behind on everything blog related.... please to forgive me?
It's a funny thing to hope for lots of 'sales' for the holiday season..only to have your wish granted...
Not really, I'm busy, about like I want to be...and am wondering if I will need to tell people Dec. 1 is the cutoff for orders or something?? I'm more worried about shipping in time for the big day.
Well that was all about me. Crap, where's my etiquette?
How the heck are ya'll? Did you really SELL the house? I found out from Jocasta BTW..ha! How funny, Small world the internet is eh?
Organic Green Dragon Tea.
I have to say I adore organic teas and this site has a lot of fabulous offerings. Thank you for hosting this and enjoy your Jane Austin. :)

The Mighty Tea Company has a marvelous selection of teas and gifts. I like the fact that they're partnering with their artisans beyond just business. I'm a tea drinker with eclectic tastes and was impressed with the Herb and Fruited Teas in biodegradable pouches. I'm also impressed with their selection of green and white teas.
The tea box is lovely and it was a delight to visit the website since I am a huge tea lover! The chocolate mint truffle sounds scrumptious! And the vanilla bean sounds great too!
And I've never heard of Inka, but now I am curious to try it! I will be on a hunt for it now, were did you find it?
Wow, they have so many teas to choose from. I would love to sample them all, I love tea =) I would especially like to try their Green Tea since that is my favorite! Thanks for the great giveaway and for hosting this fab tea party!!
I love African Rooiboos tea.
LEt's go with the Marrakesh Mint green tea.
I would like to try the island Breeze iced tea. cardeb2@verizon.net
I've never heard of INKA, but I have heard of Jane Austen. hehe

BTW- Im in the early stages of planning a summer scrapbook retreat, let me know if your interested!
I love the green abaca tea box and would definately reuse it once the teas were gone. I think my favorite from the site would have to be Chamomile Citrus.
I'd probably do the exactly opposite -- keep the tea (I love tea, especially green tea), and use the box to wrap a Christmas gift!
greenyak [at] yahoo [dot] com
I would love to try the Green & White Tea Variety. We drink tea everyday and would love to try new varieties.
Okay, this is clearly a sign that I need to read Pride & Prejudice. No, I haven't read it. Yes, that is pathetic, but I saw the miniseries and all of the movies. I know. I KNOW! I need to read the book. The other sign was my girlfriend telling me that she couldn't get enough of the story, so she is reading the Mr. Darcy series written by a different author... I know... I need to read the BOOK!
The spa tea box looks wonderful and now I need to go make me some tea before I go to bed! YUM!
I'd love to try the Rainforest Mate! http://www.mightyleaf.com/product.aspx?ID=906&CategoryID=52

Ohhhh! I have been a fan of mighty leaf tea for a long time! Haven't tried the Bombay Chai yet, but the green tea and the African Rooiboos are great! Yum!!!!
Hi Angie! Thanks for coming to Mark's Party! You were the first guest to arrive! So punctual! I love you!
The INKA sounds yummy! I love to drink Postum, got introduced when my great grandmother lived with us when I was a little girl. Then while I was in Chile every meal we had cafe Ecco, which is the same type of thing. I love it! I'll try INKA and tell you what I think.
In the past I have not entered give aways, but you have one I can't resist.....Okay, I have a question: Is the trick to winning the giveaway to comment as much as possible because each comment is counted as a new entry? If so, you'll hate me tomorrow, or just love me more, not sure which. (Just wondering because I have my sights set on that Jane Austen collection!) :)
By the way, the Wild Blossoms and Berries tea, in the herbal and fruited teas section looks like a lovely infusion!
We are a wee bit of tea snobs around here. Only loose tea for us.
And I'm just slightly obsessed with chocolate.
So I'd love to try the Chocolate Truffle Tea Collection. Huzzah!
The Fruit of the Earth Loose Tea Sampler set sounds awesome. What a great company! I'm a total tea freak, how haven't I heard of them before? Thanks!
I love their teas, and the silken pouches. My favorite is the Organic Darjeeling estate.
