No, I never experimented with that. Mother and I were trying to get measurements down when the twins were babies, and I just didn't have the time or even think of it. Those one ounce bottles that some medicines come in, though, did measure 1/4 teaspoon. I had a complete stockpile of various sizes and measurements at one time, but they do deteriorate over time. However, with these grand babies, I have somewhat replenished my stock.

I wonder if you've ever experimented by measuring the exact amount of 3 drops into like say, 1/8 tsp if it equals to that amount? If it did, then one could just squeeze the coloring directly into the measuring spoon or if your clumbsy like me better do it in a tiny cup or bowl where you can scoop it into the measuring spoon, or is this like too much hassle? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charlotte" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; "Rhonda Scott" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 18, 2009 9:56 AM Subject: Re: [CnD] Using Food Coloring > Rhonda, > > If you can get a medicine dropper that came with an eye drop or ear drop > bottle, the dropper only holds 3 drops.
