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 08:35 pm (UTC)If I ever see one in my travels about I'll grab one for you, but I think it came from a set that is not currently produced considering you knew of one from your mother and I am pretty sure that mine was probably given to an old roommate by a parent and then left behind in the Springfield house for me to inherit by virtue of being the last person to pack up in the kitchen.
But I'll keep an eye out, esp since I will have to be in several home stores over the next month picking up things to make the house ready for my mom's visit (need more table chairs that match - Ikea, need drapes for the new front window - Bed, Bath, and Beyond, etc.) and they all have a housewares section.
