Alternative Ways
Often we only think of alternatives until we find an obvious one. However, the obvious one is not always the best one. In addition, we may miss some great ideas by stopping at the obvious alternative. We know that looking for a better alternative is how new and great ideas are born. There are many alternatives for measuring a big pot of homemade soup your mom or dad is cooking. You are measuring a liquid. You can use various forms of liquid measures such as cups, liters and others; you can weigh it; you can make your own liquid measure, such as your family's cereal bowl; etc. What can you add to this list?
