I thinks she's trying to use the pan in place of a measuring tape but she is not sure of the exact measurements.

Sorry I didnt explain myself. Her idea cracked me up. I think it's creative. It felt very close to home. I wouldn't have a clue what the measurements of bekelech are though.
When I dont have a tape measure I take a peice of rubber or plastic and measure a tile in my vanity so I know it's 12"... then I measure the object in 12" increments.

Just use a piece of paper, 8.5"x11" is standard, and close to a foot Wink

I don't see the humor. You want to use it as a resource for measuring something fine, but it came off sounding condescending and mocking.

Maybe she's your next door neighbor in Williamsburg? Have some fun!!
I didn't see her as mocking anything. Some People in this serious world have a lityle bit more colorful lives than using the half roaster bekele as a half roaster bekeleh. Big deal.

I love the idea,and have used it myself to measure! I'm always using things other than rulers to measure.

I'd be wary of any part of that pan actually being 13"; all of them that I've seen are noticeably smaller than that even when claimed to be 9" x 13". You're better off using a dollar bill which is 6".

Thanks cnc for explaining!
crust, I thought this thread was a joke of some sort because I didn't understand what the OP was trying to say. Smile

I agree with OOTBubby that the disposables are more definitely not exactly 9x13 in size.
Good luck OP!

Like a previous poster, I use a paper for all estimated measuring. Either the 8.5 or the 11 side. If I need a small measure then I half either of the sides. If a need a large measure, I double, triple or quadruple either of the sides to fit what I am measuring. Has proved very helpful in the past.

What does 9x13 have to do with Williamsburg?? I don't live in Brooklyn & we call it 9x13.

OP is joking (or maybe she's serious lol) about using a 9x13 to measure her skirt so it's Williamsburg up to standards.
