Eyeballing ingredient sizes
I made fauxtatoes last night and wanted two ounces of cream cheese. I
hauled out my three-pound brick of the stuff from the fridge, sliced off a slab, then thought, "That looks a little too big" and cut a piece off. Then it occurred to me -- I got a digital food scale for my birthday. D'oh! I don't have to eyeball it -- I can weigh the sucker! Two ounces exactly. Another side benefit of the low-carb lifestyle: knowing precisely how much cream cheese makes up a two ounce chunk. Dawn (it's the little victories ...) |

I just put a star on the chart next to your name for doing so well. Pastorio |
