Although I just went and checked my recipes, and the very first one
had "2 cups of flour". Who needs scales (although I do have a set of
measuring spoons/cups).

Is that an American cookbook? I thought most British and Continental
cookbooks specified dry ingredients by weight.

It wasn't a recipe from a cookbook.
