I realized we're probably a bit odd, when I sorted laundry in the laundry room today. I do four machines a week: Black, lights (white, gray, kitchentowels, etc.), towels and sheets. Guess which load contains the most clothing? Smile, it confuses people.

Perhaps I should do a colour change at some point? Btw, does anyone know the chemical name for washing soda? I'm racking my brains trying to figure out how and where to buy it in Sweden... I know Borax can be found in painter's stores (i.e. not in the grocery store), but I'm at a loss for washing soda...

Are there different cups? MacCain has this cookbook which he inherited from his mother from the old country. i'd love to cook him meals like his mom used to, but i can't ever get those recipes to come out quite right. Is that why? Or is it that i'm too mediterranean to cook food from the UK? i'd love to blame it on wonkey measuring cups if that is an option. i could fix that! p i breathe because He allows me, indulging Him indulges me. 4 Mar 09, 4:34 PM boston UK, 12 yrs property_of_MacCain wrote: Oh good gravy!

There probably is one, but my spoons all vary by quite a lot. Cooking can be so complex mowing grass is sooo much easier. Best wishes n Mistress Tiara's beloved boy. 4 Mar 09, 5:55 PM SixThreeFive SE, 5 yrs ... and this is why the world needs to be entirely converted to the metric system! Where a centimeter is a centimeter, a decilitre a decilitre, and no one can come up with their own damn defenitions! It's like when the Brits were going to begin using the decimal system instead of the monetary system before that, and everyone thought that decimals were so confusing. I mean... how can decimals be so confusing to someone used to counting like this: http://www.victorianweb.org/economics/currency.h... Oh yes: A teaspoon is always 5ml, and a tablespoon is 15ml. That is about the only thing I trust in English recipes, because it's the same in metric and US measuring. As far as I know at least. Sadly, the US recipes don't use a common measurement that's tinier than a teaspoon: the spice measure ("kryddmått"). It's 1ml, and often used for spice or salt, here in Sweden. Much more precise than "a pinch" or "a knife edge", Ah fink. Smile, it confuses people. Edited 4 Mar 09, 5:58 PM by SixThreeFive Next page
