Work with me on this one?

You are cooking and need to use a measuring cup - you need one cup of water.

HOW do you do it?

------

I pick up the cup in my left hand - I am right handed - I hold the cup under the faucet and work the handle with my right.......Got it so far?

With the measuring cup in my left hand, I raise it to read the markings and then realize that the markings are in milliliters.

------
In order to read the markings - the ones I am familiar with cup and fractions there of?

I have to spin the cup and my head around or change hands to get to see the cups measuring marks.

Ugh, that irks to poop out of me every time, BTW? It's a nice glass Pyrex cup......
