Hi, Erin,
Yes, here is a difference in the contents of the two teaspoonfuls. The first
teaspoonful only has milk in it. The second teaspoon, from the coffee mug,
is mostly coffee, and some milk.
To the exact extent that some milk is being brought back to the milk mug, so
less coffee is being brought to it. It is as if not quite a full peaspoon of
milk was first put into the coffee mug (because some in the end is brought
back), and not quite a full teaspoon of coffee is put into the milk mug,
(because some of the volume of the teaspoon is taken up with the milf being
returned). I hope this explanation helps.... I have seen people pull
their hard out over this one. This MOQ group did better than any other!
Regards,
Lawry
