That's great! I'm going to copy it. I use coconut oil to sub for butter a lot, but sometimes it does have a very coconut flavor. I can see how olive oil would be better for some things. Thanks you!

Awesome information! If i am looking at it right (I'm a little brain dead today) it looks like for everything tablespoon of butter, you do 3/4 teaspoons less of olive oil. Now to just retain and remember that information ;)

Shannon, I got faith in you that you're come up with a way to trigger your memory.
Personally I'm not much on measuring. Mostly I do a pinch, dash, or splash of this, and a handful of that. That's why I'm not into baking; it's way too precise for me. I like to throw it all in and see what happens.
