Size Matters

Okay, here's my Petty Annoyance of the Day (PAOTD):

Recipes that give you the number of servings, and the nutritional information for each serving, but not the serving SIZE. I need to know the SIZE, people! I shouldn't have to measure out the entire quantity of the recipe and then divide it by the number of servings. That's way too much work.

I bought four cookbooks this week and only two of them bother to list serving size. And it? Annoys me (pettily).

In other news, I'm surprised at how much I like the new Diet Coke with Lime. I can only drink a li'l bit of it before it makes me feel sick, though.

That's horribly annoying.

Diet Coke with Lime??? WHERE??? I always order my diet colas with lime when I'm at a restaurant. I'd love to try this. I didn't care for the lemon version because the fruit overpowered the cola...is it the same with the lime?

No no, the lime is very subtle (to me, at least). I bought mine at Albertsons, but I've seen it at Target.
