Hello Paul!



 PE> Imperial should never be used.  Either use metric, or use

 PE> teaspoons/tablespoons.  I don't know if my teaspoon and tablespoon are

 PE> industry standard.  I would like to put a conversion into millilitres at

 PE> the top of the document.  I don't know whether tablespoon means level,

 PE> either.



 AW>> classic recipes have a vagueness

 AW>> that don't really lend themselves to storage in a computer.



 PE> I think you're making that up.  BFN.



It's the vagueness that makes you ponder in the previous paragraph what a

tablespoon measurement really means. Heaps of old classic recipes are full

of vague directions. I've also overheard recipes like my favorite dessert

(lemon delicious) being passed down from mother to girlfriend. There

seems to be a hell of a lot of vagueness and rule of thumb type guessing

involved. Cooking a lemon delicious pudding is an inexact science.
