Advertising

Yep. Above a family business, or on an advertizing board along with other adverts. I should be able to not see an advert if I don't want to.

There is a difference between teaspoons and dessertspoons? 🤔

I have only ever heard of tablespoons and teaspoons. We exclusively used teaspoons as dessertspoons.

What do you eat cereal with?

[–] Anders429@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So this actually came up recently for me. I wanted to get spoons the same size as the ones I used as a kid to eat cereal, so I ordered some dessert spoons. Turns out, what I actually used as a kid was a teaspoon. My wife was confused when I said the dessert spoons weren't the right size though, since that is the size of spoon she always used to eat cereal growing up.

The spoon paradox continues! 😂

A cereal spoon, obviously.

[–] bernieecclestoned@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

That's a dessert spoon
