Just wanted to add in a little info on the baking stuff... smidgen etc.... Actually a dash is 1/8th tsp, a pinch is 1/16th tsp, and a smidgen is 1/32nd tsp. It was pretty much determined years ago and there are actually little tiny measuring spoons for them. I got a set for the fun of it, and it does help a bit with old recipes to not "overdo " the addition of stuff as it was only to add things like a flavoring. Plus, they were very careful with things because of cost and availability. Another measure was a "salt spoon" is 1/4th tsp, as is "a tad"; and a drop is about equal to 1/64th . I think you can buy them on Amazon. But it does make it easier to use old recipe books and family heirloom recipes. Plus it is fun to just have the set.
