By the spoonful

[Furryanimal]

What was the last you measured by the spoonful?

For me it was the milk I was putting in my scrambled egg.

Blimey furry, sounds like you meant business with that scrambled egg ! I just slug it in

Probably about twenty years ago when I baked a pie and didn’t have scales, a desertspoon of flour is roughly an ounce

On the odd occasion I make it I stir in a saucepan from start to finish, I’m an old fashioned gal !

Salad dressing.

I'm only allowed 1 tablespoon.

My poor doctor seems to think that I will live forever if I follow his diet recommendations.

I don't have the heart to tell him that he should have paid more attention when he was in medical school!

LOL @ Aunt Bea...


The last thing I measured by the spoonful was liquid meds... 5ml spoonful...

I don't measure anything by the spoon when I'm cooking, I guestimate everything

It could be a spoonful of coffee
It could be a spoonful of tea
But one little spoon of your precious love
Is good enough for me.

It was just last week when I was making biscuits using powdered milk.

 

[twinkles]

i measure the honey i put in my coffee ----1 teaspoon

 

[Ruth n Jersey]

I made an apple crisp this morning. I have an exact recipe I follow so I don't have to think about it. I measured out the nutmeg and cinnamon.

Oh my, this is kind of hilarious. I kind of cook like my grandma, just keep dumping stuff together until it looks good and tastes good. Since I live alone I'm like (I'm ashamed to say) a college frat boy instead of a 65+ year old woman: Need cough syrup, swig it out of the bottle. Need maalox, swig it out of the bottle, want some orange juice, tip up the carton a have some. My oh my, I'm blushing as I write this.

 

[gennie]

Only with baking and liquid medications.

 

[Geezerette]

I have a plastic spoon that is about a tbsp that I use to measure coffee for the pot.

 

[Falcon]

Ovaltine powder. Yum Yum

 

[C'est Moi]

Since I am forever counting calories, I weigh/measure stuff all the time.

 

[Butterfly]

I bake bread, so I measure things for that. Other stuff, not so much.

 

[SeaBreeze]

Organic lemon juice I mix in the mornings with water and baking soda.

 

[Fyrefox]

It was medicinal...either cough syrup or anti-diarrheal remedies!

 

[Sunny]

I don't put sugar in my coffee, but if I did, I'd obviously use a spoon.

 

[mark55]

gunpowder was the last thing I measured out, with a set of reloading spoons.

 

[Keesha]

Honey!
