SG,

Just used the second package of cornbread mix you sent me, Monster.
Mum & I ate half while it was still warm (naughty, naughty). Measurements on the packet threw me all over again - I can never get used to measuring in cups and have to have a translation every time. Even my lovely BBC cookery book, which includes Metric and Imperial measures AND instructions for Aussies and Merkins doesn't translate cups - it says it varies by ingredient.
