inMy $30 digital scale just saved a batch of macarons from total ruin
Honestly, I get the hype but I'm not totally sold. I've made cookies and cakes for years just using measuring cups and they turn out fine. It feels like one more gadget to store and keep batteries in. My grandma never weighed a thing and her baking was always perfect. Maybe for super finicky stuff like macarons it matters, but for most home bakers, a cup of flour is a cup of flour.

inAppreciation post: The time a hotel clerk in Denver upgraded me for free after I was super nice about a mix-up
My last hotel stay had a billing error and the front desk person just fixed it with a blank stare. No upgrade for me, guess my nice face needs work. That clerk really did go above and beyond, like hollym82 said. It feels rare to get that kind of treatment now, doesn't it?
