I preheat the bowl and soak the chasen at the same time, then dry the bowl thoroughly.

BTW, I made that Pacino pic my Windows desktop pic at the office.

Given your diminutive stature, might double as a hot tub? :D

Yeah, they do look big generally, especially with only a few ounces of water added. How big is big?
