It cost me 1:16 to round off today NYT mini.

I made a major mistake that slowed me down with today’s solution. I only got BRAT and TENT on my first run through the Across words.

I then thought 1 Down was BRAVE, which was really, really wrong. I forgot for a moment what it meant to have a question mark in a clue. I did get the rest of the Down words, which means that even though the grid was filled in, I got at least one wrong. It didn’t take long to figure out the mistake, thankfully.
