TEAgether

TEAgether?

"TEA(o)gether, to enjoy tea of all varieties from all cultures!"
-- I began to call my tea gathering events TEAgether since I came to live in Columbus Ohio. In summer 2009, an OSU campus student group registered with the Ohio State Union, invited me to be their adviser and adopted TEAgether as the group's name (on Google Groups || an under-developed website of the group || a glossary for tea culture)
