That being the case, please use the comments section to describe your situation vis a vis measuring spoons. If you don't own measuring spoons, please explain why not. If you do own measuring spoons, I'd like to hear about them. If you have more than one set, please say so. For each set of measuring spoons, tell me what they're made of. If they're plastic, tell me what color plastic. If you have metal measuring spoons, are they the cheap bendy ones with rounded bowls or are they the angular more-square-bowled kind that look classier? Do you have ones of ivory? Glass? Mother-of-pearl? Do tell. Do your measuring spoons have a ring connecting the set together? Are they loose? Do they match? Are they anything beyond purely utilitarian?
Full disclosure: I have two sets of the cheap, bendy metal measuring spoons with rounded bowls. Each set has a ring upon which the spoons are threaded so that they do not get lost. I have two sets because I cook stuff with a lot of measuring and I hate having to wash the spoons mid-cooking-event. I personally despise plastic measuring spoons.

Date: 2008-08-16 04:13 am (UTC)we have:
a set of stainless steel spoons, squarish with rounded edges, held together with a chain (the beady kind that used to come with rabbit's feet (do they still sell those?))
a cheaper set of aluminium spoons, round and flatbottomed.
a set of yellow plastic scoops that fit together, but don't have any connective tissue.
a set of blue plastic mini-measuring-cup type things, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup.
2 black plastic long-handled measuring spoons for coffee. One has a flat, angled bit that is used to scrape the coffee grounds off the surface of the coffee grinder; the other does not.
