When is a tablespoon not.............


Recommended Posts

I think as you get older you question yourself even more. !!

Reading the medicine bottle it says the measure is 1 tablespoon in water.

So a desert spoon is what you eat your puddy with, a tablespoon is the same as a serving spoon.

Approx 2 desert spoons equals a tablespoon. Yes? confused.com as ever!

Just Googled for the ml equivalent and find that "1 Tbsp =    1/2

fl. oz.    =   1.5

cl.        =     

15 ml" 

A teaspoon is usually 5ml - or maybe you have a kitchen measure to help you.

Keep taking the medicine ..................!

doh!

Seriously, for anyone suffering rheumatics this over the counter medicine (recommended by our doc) Urarathone (homoeopathic) is excellent . I thought I had been overdosing on it as regards 1 tablespoon!! after seeing it contained rocket fuel - ethanol !! it was a moment of panic! Looked Ethanol up in Wikipedia ... big mistake!

Interesting though Urarthone €8.70 in France (local chemist) one English advert on internet wanted £28.00 for same size of bottle.! MBK

Presently taking cough medicine as quite ill & not sleeping 'cos of cough, but using a teaspn. messy - got stickly lictus all over myself this morning, so using huge spoon and guessing - hopefully smaller doses as it's awful!

Moral here - use a large spoon and get it down the gullet,  not  on the PJs!
