Freakin’ yeah!

18 July 2006 by kristarella

Hochkay, so, I just did a search on Google to figure out how much “one stick” of butter is because we don’t use that terminology in Oz. This was the result:

Google

In grams would have been more useful than millilitres but how cool is it that it did that?! I love Google.

I just made garlic bread. Butter, garlic, garlic salt, parsley and a bit of basil. Hope it tastes good. We’re having dinner with our bible study group tonight before Winter Training. WT is a thing that church is running for six weeks to train people in ministry. I’m doing one on one women’s’ discipleship. Hubby is doing 4 key centuries, 4 key doctrines…

Well, I didn’t get to finish this post before we left. We’re back now. My workshop was really good, it was interesting and clear about discipleship, while involving a lot of things, is primarily about teaching. Hubby says his was good but raised more questions than it answered. Dinner was yummy too, the garlic bread went down well and Sarah’s little sister washed up after us. What a legend!

So I love this animation! Highlaerious!

Oh and I got OWL hooked on that number thing I was talking about the other day! Freakin’ yeah! *grin*

    Google is absolutely great and still free. Let’s hope it stays that way. In cooking I use cups, teaspoons and sticks (of butter). If you use metric, do you just have a scale to weigh everything? Do you also have little 50 mg spoons?

    Heh, I use a mix of both. I use cups, spoons and grams of butter or sort of solid things like chocolate. I get annoyed when a recipe calls for grams of flour because it means I have to dirty my scale as well as cups… I guess it’s just this country, we don’t speak of “sticks” of butter. Does it say on your stick of butter how many grams it is?
