Actually, I think it's a transcription error on my part. I was weighing the
flour, sugar and nuts and measuring the results. This should be about 3
cups of unsifted flour and about 1 1/2 cups of sugar. I wrote the
information down and transferred it to a Word file, which is probably where
I introduced the error.
Since Markham was weighing things, I assumed equal weights rather than equal
volumes.
Takeoff is in about 12 hours and I'm taking a break from getting the last
little bits and pieces ready.
