Mordonna,
I don't have my charts here at work but the only onles I can remember
off the top of my head are:
4 teas = 1 Tbsp = 20ml
1 cup = 250ml
I'll bring a chart in tomorrow morning (unless Sianan or one of the
others posts one in the meantime).
When Hess redacted Matha Washington's cookbook she often used cups as a
measurement. I tell you, my biscuits were turning out "not quite right"
until I realized that your cups are smaller than ours.
Meliora.
