A Handy Measuring Cup By MichelleLeanne on Dec 26, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

One of those things that you take for granted is a measuring cup. I did not realize that I did not have one until I was ready to bake cookies using a recipe with all the ingredients then searched for a measuring cup only to realize that I did not have one! I had seen the angled measuring cup at Bed Bath & Beyond which I had never seen before so I decided to just go ahead and get that one. I liked the angled cup because it is a lot easier to see when you have reached the desired amount in the cup. Love it! I used my mom's "regular" measuring cup the other day and definitely appreciated the angled cup more. I have used the measuring cup for both solids and liquids, including hot water with good results. I have seen similar measuring cups at Walmart recently but do not recall the price. The OXO one is great, give it a try!
