			I don't use recipes much anymore, but for baking, I think measuring by weight is great for consistent results. Elizabeth David's English Bread and Yeast Cookery, unfortunately not available in digital (although a paperback ruined by liquid is cheaper to replace than an e-book reader), introduced me, thirty (!) years ago, to measuring by weight and the 20-ounce pint. It's still on my shelf; I still love her recipe for pizza dough.

			I was going to ask how your friend got them through customs, but then I remembered that Guadeloup is considered French soil, rather than a territory, so no customs...
