As many of you know, I love tea. Tonight, I decided to try the new tea that I got for Christmas. Chinese tea, literally from China. It was looseleaf. I had no idea how much to put in the mug. Anyway, I poured the water in, carried the mug to my computer, and started playing Kings of Chaos (an online game). I reached for my mug and I was in for a shock. The mug was half full of leaves. Seriously, I only put about 1/2 a tsp of looseleaves into the mug! I don't EVER remember looseleaf tea growing so much!!! The looseleaf looked a little like cloves. These 'cloves' unfolded and spread out. The tea is great though. Smooth. No sugar required. Really good! I think I've learned my lesson, though. I should only put a few kernals in! Just so you know, the picture on the right is after the second cup of tea. The first cup was even more full of leaves. Quite shocking, but quite tasty. See below for the storyboard.

what you need is a nice teapot
Yup, that would be nice. :) I do have one, but the leaves get caught in the spout. I don't use that pot often for this reason. I keep it, though, because it's one of the few things I got from my grandma.
