I'm with you on the weight vs volume thing. In Greece we measure everything in grams. It's so much easier that way, not to mention more accurate.magdahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367645154577817408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3998452736393635440.post-82414197421704407772011-10-18T17:29:06.775+02:002011-10-18T17:29:06.775+02:00Oh, I'm stupid.
