Between living in Europe for years and studying scientific stuff from
time to time, I really feel more comfortable with the metric system.
I made myself a little chart of equivalents and taped it to the inside
of my cabinet door for ready reference (want a copy?). I find this
exceedingly handy when changing the quantity of pickle recipes
mostly. Gawd I hate fractions, so I switch everything to metric
and math away in peace. I have had to change some items in my
personal notes like weighing spices in grams instead of the milliliters
that are teaspoons. My kitchen scale makes it easy too.
