New cups marked correctly.
Got the last of my new measuring cups today. For future reference, not all
things ordered from Jet come in a day or two. Apparently other vendors ship through them and they can take longer. Anyway... All cups have the ounces marked on the correct side. Yay! Not sure when they started making the cups like this again but me likey! |

At school they even tried to force him to write with his right hand. What a ridiculous idea. Not the table seating, so much. Stop poking me with your elbow, use your other hand... nope just swap seats. I'm pretty sure my brother can read a measuring cup no matter which side it is printed on. Jill |

I learned by watching others and copied what the did. Wife and I are both left so that makes some things easier. |

I guess it's only correct for right handers living here. |

I learned by > watching others and copied what the did. Me, too. I bat, knit, and use scissors righty. I'm pretty ambidextrous, which is useful when using tools or when my left gets tired. The thing that devils me lately is that dishers are pretty much righty-only, and I manage to do some wild things with one. When we get a watermelon, we use a (looks like about a quarter-cup) disher to portion it out into containers. Sure, it's not as good as freshly cut watermelon, but we can "grab and git" on our way to work in the morning. I naturally gravitate to the left-hand seat at a long table, just to avoid troubling my neighbor. > Wife and I are both left so > that makes some things easier. DH is rightie, so we have a little trouble in the kitchen. Sometimes he jokes when I put the kettle on the stove for him that, "You used the left-handed kettle!" Cindy Hamilton |

They have decided that since it had uses, for instance in hand combat, that's why it didn't get evolved out. Since clear left handed prints on caves are apparent, they reckon the same proportion of the population has always been left handed. |

I paddle a canoe left handed, much to the relief of right handed canoeing partners. I can swing a baseball bat or an axe equally left or right handed. I can write left handed, though not as quickly. I can do most kitchen chores left or right handed. |
