I was too busy too ad this yesterday, but...
I cold brewed some shincha yutaki midori and started a session of some da hong pao from my local tea shop. I saved the tea as per Toki's instructions:
After the first 7th steeping, usually I will call it a day. The tea should have given out the first phase of drama, and now should be rested. How? Pour boiling water into the pot. Using a deep tray as base and fill up half-way, so the pot is sitting half-way inside hot water. Leave it until next morning for 2nd phase. Taste the cold brew and repeat every 12hrs. until it becomes sweet water.

Fantastic photos, Geekgirl! Squirrels are the great unsung comedians of the rodent world. Those expressions are priceless.
Do you think that squirrel would vote for "nuttiness" in today's TeaPoll?
