Hi Susan,
I may be wrong, but I think the liquid dry measures fo something like this.
You use dry measure cups to measure things like flour, sugar, nuts, fruit
etc.
So if you want a quarter cup, you fill up the quarter cup measure, level it
with the knife, voila!
For liquid measures, you usually use a plastic or pyrex cup with all the
marks and numbers for liquid measures; fill to required level mark and you
have it.
So, if you wanted a half cup of oil, you would not use a half cup dry
measure, as you would likely get less than you want or end up spilling.
As a blind cook, you obviously will needd some kind of level indicator to
measure liquid ingredients.
As Usual, my explamation is likely just part of the whole.
Cheers,
Monte

Subject: [blindcooks] Measuring Cup Question
Good morning, list:
I currently do not have a glass measuring cup. I understand that liquids
measure differently than other more solid items, including powders. I only
have the plastic measuring cups. Is there a way that I can use them to
measure liquids, say, a cup and a quarter for a cup or something similar?
Thanks!
Susan
