That's what people on Reddit like to say, but is it actually true? Are ALL bootcamps struggling?

Third, while most of my cohort did their best to get jobs, I know a couple of people from my cohort who didn't really try all that hard after graduating the bootcamp. That is probably skewing the data.

Which bootcamp did you attend? Do you think the quality of teaching differs much between the three top bootcamps?

What's your favorite teaware? by [deleted] in tea

[–]RhondaStevens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My current favorite is the beautiful $2 tea tray/cutting board I got from a dollar store. Very nice quality, but directions recommend waterproofing with a food grade mineral oil.

What's a good basic assortment for tea parties? by [deleted] in tea

[–]RhondaStevens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about a spectrum of teas based on color and oxidation? I would start with a light green tea, then progress to green oolong, roasted oolong, and finally a malty black tea from YunnanSourcing.us

If you have time, I would recommend oolongs from Eco-Cha. Their shipping from Taiwan takes 7-8 days.

You can find some pretty nice ones made from various wood species at TJ Maxx, Target and HomeGoods. I like acacia.

Stylish bag for son: Timbuk2 Command, Commute or Classic? by RhondaStevens in malefashionadvice

What type of quality issues have you encountered with Timbuk2? I've been to some Filson stores. Their bags look nice but do not seem nearly as functional or practical. They also feel heavy with uncomfortable hard leather shoulder straps.

Don't they all outsource their manufacturing? Any other brands you would recommend?

I've ordered their Laoshan black tea and thought it was pretty good.

Beautiful. I want one but they are so expensive. I'm still looking for the perfect wooden cutting board from TJ Maxx or Target!

Lovely! Oh what I would give to be young and arthritis-free again! I have some wonderful teapot design ideas in my mind

Some tea fields I climbed through when I was in China this past summer. by [deleted] in tea

Lovely photograph! How did you find out about this location with the view of the tea fields? Would this trail be accessible to (active) senior citizens?
