Red Measuring cup in dreams

A measuring cup in a dream is the dream's image of the deliberate practice of using the right amount. The cup is humble; it refuses to let the recipe become a feeling. The dream brings the cup when you are at the stage of a project, a budget, or a daily intake where eyeballing the quantity has stopped working and the discipline of measure is needed. A measuring cup used carefully is the dream telling you the practice is being respected and the recipe will work. A measuring cup ignored on the counter is the dream noting that the discipline is available, and you are choosing to pour by feel anyway.
