Tea Time

[Ghoulish Delight]

I underbrewed the pot. Instead of pouring the cup back into the pot, I took the tea ball (which at this point had been sitting for a couple of minutes) and put it diretly into my cup of tea to strengthen it. I figure either the large ammount of tea in the small cup did it, or just the fact that that tea ball was soaked with super-strong tea that mixed in with my cup to cause the bitterness. I should have just poured the tea back into the pot and steeped the whole thing for a bit longer. Which is what I did with what was left of the pot, and that turned out much better for the second cup.
