Perhaps you do things differently over there, but if I'm measuring out sugar or whatever, I usually use the same spoon three times rather than three different spoons once each. So it's definitely spoonfuls -- the amount is pluralised rather than the spoons.

OK, Bingley, that's an excellent point. Makes sense to me!You have converted me to spoonfuls. On my fridge I have two large, magnetic metal "buttons" which give the dry and liquid measure conversions. Very handy when cooking. Now what I really need are two conversion "buttons" for European to American measures. It was quite an adventure to figure out the directions for my O'Douls Irish Bran Bread mix. But I did it and now have lovely bread for breakfast every morning. Yum!
