\nAbout a week ago we had the happy surprise of an e-mail saying that someone had bought some “Make Tea Not War” shirts from our CafePress shop<\/a>. Very cool, eh?<\/p>\n

I was mildly surprised to discover that we get told the name (but no other info) of people that purchase from our shop. On the one hand this isn’t too weird – if they purchased from us directly we’d know a whole lot more than that. On the other hand it’s totally unnecessary for us to know anything<\/em> about them, so I was a bit surprised that they told us the name.<\/p>\n

This initial purchase was by some friends of ours here in Morris that had already expressed some interest, so no huge surprise there. Last night, however, I got an e-mail saying there had a been another purchase, and this is by a stranger! Lord knows how they found us, but we’re thrilled to know that they or someone they know will be wearing our sentiment. Hope you enjoy the shirt!<\/p>\n

We’ve ordered a bunch of our own “Make tea not war” stuff as Xmas prezzies, and I really<\/em> like the large mug<\/a> that we bought for ourselves while we were ordering. It’s quite large, and nice and heavy – it feels like it’ll really last. The fridge magnets<\/a> are also pretty cool and make nifty stocking stuffers, and the tote bag<\/a> turned out all spiffy as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
