I too, discovered weighing my ingredients thanks to King Arthur! I've written down the weights of several "common" ingredients to use when I have a recipe that is not from the KAF website. My family teases me about my rolls at the holidays, saying that they must be store bought since they look so perfect. I'd never be able to get them that way without my scale :-) I probably should try it for muffins too, since mine definitely never come out the same. I especially love it for items like PJ mentioned - honey, peanut butter, shortening - all things that are a pain to try and measure and then scrape out of cups. I've also used it to weigh portions for meals while trying to watch my diet. And scales were the perfect gifts for my mom and sister who love to bake as well. If you don't have one - get it today - you'll never regret your purchase!!
