Hello Lenore my name is Teresa what do you mean you use a spray bottle? What do you put in it? Oil or what? This is very interesting also I am getting useful tips from you guys as well.

Re: [CnD] trick to pouring liquids
Hi there. For oil I usually measure over the sink. FIrst I put hot water in the measuring spoon then it is easier to feel. Other liquids sometimes if it is a big cup or thermus you can hear the liquid get to the top. THe pitch changes as it gets higher. Hope this helps.

Re: [CnD] trick to pouring liquids
I use a spray bottle and put the oil on the spoon that way. I do the same thing for a cup also. It really works.

Then, if I managed to spill too much oil in the bowl, I use a funnel to pour the excess oil back into the bottle. If I don't spill very much, I just usually rinse it down the drain with very hot water. Either way, the oil is in the bowl and not on the counter. Also, I often place the bowl I'm measuring over in the sink so there is less mess to clean up. I don't think there's any real easy way to measure oil!

Hi Gary, I usually pour over a large bowl or over the sink Sugar So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries.
