- Jilara, yours is the carelessness of the true expert. I cook much the
- same way you do, and have gotten into the habit of automatically
- converting any measurements into proportions. E.g.: 2 parts water to 1
- part flour.
-
- However, if I were to try sewing something, I'd make a horrible mess of
- it with those kinds of measurements; I'd *have* to sit down with tape
- measure and work it all out.
