I have used a scale for baking for years. It is very odd that more people in America don't. I have taught my three children to bake with the scale as well. And that scale is used constantly for all sorts of school projects to weigh things for science, craft projects to weigh fabric for dyeing, and fundraisers when we need to put the exact amount of candy in each bag. I give out scales as gifts regularly. Best wedding gift is a scale and cards with a few basic recipes for pancakes, muffins, bread, and pasta. I am a scale zealot and have converted many to the best and easiest way to bake. Thank you for this great blog post and the FABULOUS ingredient weight chart!
