Default Measuring foods - eye opener
I just saw this video and it sure was an eye opener for me:

(scroll down to play the video)

After seeing this I am going to start weighing more of my foods that I usually measure.

Oh yeah there is a huge difference between weighing and measuring I find. I weigh everything. If it doesnt have a weight on it I measure it as accurately as possible and then weigh, writing the weight on the container.

Wow! I sure never realized there was that much of a difference between weighing and measuring. The oats were not even to the top of the cup.

That's why I weigh EVERYTHING!! Plus it vastly reduces the amount of dish washing that I have to do.
