I can buy 1 lb. of butter & it comes in 4 sticks, each one is 1/2 cup.<br /><br />For baking, I use scales sometimes, especially if I am doing baking for others and want things perfect. Or I just buy packages that are the exact weight I need so I don't have to figure it out. Otherwise I just scoop flour lightly to make sure I'm not packing it in to much. That looks like a nice scale you have. I've used a little "diet" scale for all my packages and when I need to, for baking, too.<br /><br />Thanks for that conversion link - I wish I had learned cm & ml measures and weights, sometimes I come across things that make no sense to me. Temperature is another one that I always have to "google" to figure out the difference between C & F.Tammyhttp://www.tamdoll.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193403358365368030.post-63416071159491382262016-11-13T00:58:56.533+08:002016-11-13T00:58:56.533+08:00Jane, I agree with you.

Once my daughter wanted to bake cookies and while putting the ingredients together, she suddenly asked me what a stick of butter was. I told her the the whole bar of butter "looks" like a stick to me. I think I was wrong.Projects By Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02707620997323055845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193403358365368030.post-45016199792945005212016-11-12T23:48:52.748+08:002016-11-12T23:48:52.748+08:00I think accurate measuring is more important for s...I think accurate measuring is more important for some baking than others. But yes, cups are a bit vague, and a stick of butter has me completely baffled! Jane McLellanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17221433363521511688noreply@blogger.com
