Volume measures. Measuring cups and measuring spoons. (I also eyeball a lot of stuff, but I do actually break out the cups and spoons for baking.)
Oh, haha, yeah. I had forgotten that's how it's done in America! I'm always a bit bewildered by American recipes ("...but my cups are all different sizes!").
Scales are actually better for powders (i.e. flour); volume measurements can vary significantly depending on how hard you pack the stuff in.
(Having said that, it seems relevant that my plastic kitchen scale met a sad melty end on top of my toaster oven and I haven't replaced it.)
