You do know that the U.S. is the only country on this side of the Atlantic that doesn't use metric? For your info 1 cup equals 237 ml and 1 ounce equals 28 grams. Also the Food Lover's Companion has a conversion guide in the appendix.
I like the fact that they use weight based measurements, which are actually far more accurate than the volume measurements. I would suggest a digital scale. I guess the good thing about being a Canadian cook is that we are pretty bilingual when it comes to metric and imperial measurements.
