Silly?! Absurd?! Well, yes. I'll pretty much admit that my set of
precision measuring spoons is insane, but they're beautiful to
behold. Hand-made of lead-free pewter, they start at 1/4 tsp. and go
down to 1/512 (each one being 1/2 of the one before). I'll post
pictures.
Of course, like you, I usually hand measure dry ingredients. ;-)
