My daughter came home from infant school the other day and randomly asked what Scales were. Now this could have gone two ways, I could have started to describe Scales you might find on a reptile or given her a rundown on Weighing Scales. She mentioned she’d be learning about weights and measurements at school and that made sense, she wanted to know about weighing Scales. So I explained to her that Scales were a device that helped you to measure the weight of something, she looked at me strangely then asked me why Fizz from the Tweenies was yellow! It got me thinking though, where would we be without Scales?
Cooking would be guesswork without Scales
I like to dabble in the kitchen when I can and more often than not I use Weighing Scales when I’m baking cakes. Without blowing my own trumpet, I can bake a pretty mean Christmas cake but I’d be totally lost without a set of Scales. I use the Scales to accurately measure out the flour, almonds, mixed fruit and other ingredients that are needed for my festive treat. My kitchen Scales ensure I add just the right amount of products to my cake mix and once baked, it tastes absolutely amazing. So kitchen Scales are useful devices but where else do weighing devices come in handy in the modern world?
Slimming would be difficult if Scales weren’t around
Go on a diet, start exercising and there’s a good chance you’ll be using Scales to monitor your weight loss. Weighing scales might be great for the kitchen but bathroom Scales are really handy if you have plenty of pounds to shed. Step on the Scales and they’ll tell you exactly how much you weigh and they’ll keep you update throughout a weight loss regime. I was a frequent visitor to our bathroom Scales when I went on a diet last year and they were a great tool as I battled against the bulge. I think we’ve become pretty accustomed to Scales in life but it makes you think, how would we know what anything weighed if a simple set of scales hadn’t been invented?
