    I will be up at the crack of noon tomorrow to bake.

    *cough* :hello:

    I am just washing up and making the kitchen a nice place to bake. :D
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    Question number one:

    How big is a "cup"? I was planning on using the shiny metal one, pictured here next to a standard sized mug. It holds 6 fluid ounces, or just over 150ml. Is that the right size?

    Please hurry as I can't really start without knowing this one. :D

    Use the big mug.
    If you fill up to within 1cm from the brim that'll be 250ml ;) .

    Fortunately, the one thing I have loads of is mugs. For some reason I must have about 20. :rotfl:
