This was the year Fannie Farmer's Boston Cooking School Cookbook was first published, with its stern instruction, "A cupful is measured level. A tablespoonful is measured level. A teaspoonful is measured level." Prior to this -- and for some time to come -- cookbook recipes matter-of-factly included such measurements as "a rounded spoonful" or "a large spoonful", a "wineglassful" of this or that, "enough to cover the tip of a knife", a "small teacupful", or "butter the size of an egg".
