I'm thinking of just re-titling this..."Longest Blog Post Title in History."Anyhoo...I wanted to show you guys this handy-dandy measuring cup that works for me.

Why? Fill one end and it's perfect for liquids. Flip it and the other side is perfect for measuring solid, semi-solid and sticky stuff.
See...
Mine is from Pampered Chef...no, I don't sell PC, but I have seen them other places. Sur La Table carries a mini version! I still really don't know what to call it. A flip-able, measuring cup pusher-outer thingy. There...that's it.
Go on and check out the other Works For Me Wednesday tips at We Are THAT Family.

I have three of those Measure-All Cups from Pampered Chef - LOVE them!!
ReplyDeletei've seen those before- its a measuring-do-hickey-thing. Dont have one but they look awesome!
ReplyDeleteTotally have been drooling over these on Alton Browns show... you are so HIP to get one!! Such a trend setter girl!
ReplyDeleteBlessings-

I'm going to try to sound all professional and call it the adjustable solid fats measuring device.
ReplyDeleteAnd, if you believe that, I've got a bridge for sale over here!
I've had one of those for more than 10 years and I love it! I went to a PC "party" awhile ago and the consultant mentioned that it was one of their own products that wasn't recommended for the dishwasher - I put mine in all the time and it's still as good as new!
ReplyDeleteI have one of these and I would be lost without it. Ya know you can find a mini one on Amazon.com. Great thing!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is so nifty! (I swear I never use that word...but there is no other one I can think of to describe this). I really need to get me one of those!
ReplyDeleteI have 3 of them and couldn't bake without them. I used to hate measuring shortening and peanut butter, etc.
ReplyDeleteI also happen to be a Pampered Chef Consultant (FYI I had these way before I signed up with them) It's funny I don't seem to sell a lot of these though.
Another great use for them is if you don't like stuffing your turkey's but your stuffing in it and shoot it into your turkey :)
Oh my goodness I didn't know of such a gadget, measuring thingy!!! Thanks that looks so cool~BTW I can't believe the things we think are cool these days ha :)
ReplyDeleteI have that too, and I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteI have that measuring cup as well. Love.
ReplyDeleteI LURVE mine! PC has a smaller one too, and they have a pink one sometimes for breast cancer. I have 3 and I love love love them!
ReplyDeleteJust used mine the other day - for peanut butter. :D
ReplyDeleteI have never seen such a thing!!
ReplyDeleteleave it to Pampered Chef to bring the awesome!!
I have one of those! LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE mine too!!! I wouldn't be able to cook without it anymore.
ReplyDeleteI have the same one from Pampered Chef and I LOVE it! Use it every night!!
ReplyDeleteHave one....one love it! I've seen a 1 cup and mini version! I want BOTH! :)
ReplyDelete~ingrid
that would be great for corn syrup also!!! I'm gonna have to get one :)
ReplyDeleteLove this! Think I'm going to have to get myself one! I'm working on an Easter sugar cookie post and am linking back to you to show off your beautiful Easter cookies with my readers! Will post this week.
ReplyDeleteOhhh this is so cool. I want it! I want it!
ReplyDeleteThese are great! Love & blessings from NC!
ReplyDeleteThat's one of my favorite tools ever!
ReplyDeletepeanut butter, crisco, applesauce, ketchup, etc. Awesome!
I used to have one of these, but now I can't find it! :(
ReplyDeleteI have them too!! They are great!
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see the butter/crisco recipe :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, those things are great! I just went to a pampered chef party and can now kick myself for not getting one!
I don't have one of these!
ReplyDeletewhat a cool looking measuring cup! all seasoned bakers should have at least one!
ReplyDeleteI have one of those too! I love it for things like sour cream but especially PEANUT BUTTER! I think that PC now has a smaller version also.
ReplyDeleteI have one from crate and barrel, but they also sell them at amazon, and even target. They're great!
ReplyDeleteOMG that is genius! I have to get one!!
ReplyDeleteI have one and love it!
ReplyDeleteI have the same thing and love it, got it years ago.
ReplyDeleteMy mom has one of those, too! Great for measuring peanut butter, too... Fun! I need to find one of those.
ReplyDeleteI have one of these, too. Be careful if you put it in the diswasher. Mine is very hard to push up & down now. Seems the inside container is now too tight! I loved it when it worked for me. I love all Pampered Chef stuff and have a bunch. Some I loved so much I bought doubles of (no, I don't sell it, either). I may have to re-invest in another one of these Measure-All-Cups next time I am invited to a party...many of my cookie recipes call for butter flavored crisco or peanut butter and this was so handy to use!
ReplyDeleteI have one of these, too, and I love it! Read about how I found mine:

I'm so going to have to look for one of those thingies!! lol
ReplyDeleteLooks like a cool tool for the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteMy mother has one from 30 years ago and it's about the only way to measure peanut butter without going crazy. It's one of the first tools I bought when I got married! Love your blog!
