What is claimed is: 1. An adjustable measuring device comprising, in combination, a cutting board having an upper surface on which to cut food items, a substantially semi-cylindrical adjustable measuring container having an open top inlet and a movable barrier member mounted to rotate in said container for determining the volume of said container, with a cover member secured to rotate with said barrier member to cover the portion of said open top trailing said barrier member, said adjustable measuring container being releasably secured to said cutting board with said open top inlet being positioned adjacent said upper surface to receive food particles swept off of said upper surface, in which said cutting board has an outer edge and a recess in said edge, said adjustable measuring container being releasably retained within said recess said container having a support member with a handle extending outwardly from said container and said board and having said barrier member rotatably mounted thereto, and a barrier extending upwardly from said support member and positioned to form a barrier along said outer edge of said cutting board to deter food particles swept from said upper surface towards said adjustable measuring container from being swept off of said cutting board or onto said support member if they do not enter said container. 2. A device as in claim 1 in which said upper surface of said cutting board is planar and defines a first plane, said open top inlet of said adjustable measuring container having an upper edge defining a second lane plane, said second plane being at the same elevation as or below said first plane, said measuring container having a circular handle extending out from said cutting board. 3. An adjustable measuring container having a semi-cylindrical cup, a first cover member rotatably mounted to said cup and movable to cover a variable area of said cup, a first barrier member secured to said first cover member and extending into said cup to be rotatable with said first cover member to change the effective volume of said cup, and having an engagement structure to be engaged with the hand to rotate said first cover member, and a second cover member extending over said first cover member and having a handle and a second barrier member extending upwardly from said second cover member to impede the movement of material from the vicinity of said cup towards said handle. 4. An adjustable measuring container as in claim 3 in which said first barrier member is dimensioned to fit the contours of the interior walls of said cup, and a flexible plastic sealing element for sealing the junction between said first barrier member and said interior walls. 5. An adjustable measuring device comprising, in combination, a cutting board having an upper surface on which to cut food items, an adjustable measuring container having an open top inlet and a movable member for determining the volume of said container, said adjustable measuring container being releasably secured to said cutting board with said open top inlet being positioned adjacent said upper surface to receive food particle swept off of said upper surface, in which said container comprises a substantially semi-cylindrical cup and said movable member comprises a rotatable cover member positioned to cover a variable portion of said open top and inlet, and in which said adjustable measuring container includes a handle portion secured to and extending outwardly from said cup and carrying an upstanding barrier member positioned to extend upwardly above said surface of said cutting board to block the movement of food particles past said cup and off of said cutting board. 6. An adjustable measuring device comprising, in combination, a cutting board having an upper surface on which to cut food items, a substantially semi-cylindrical adjustable measuring container having an open top inlet and a movable barrier member mounted to rotate in said container for determining the volume of said container, with a cover member secured to rotate with said barrier member to cover the portion of said open top, trailing said barrier member, said adjustable measuring container being releasably secured to said cutting board with said open top inlet being positioned adjacent said upper surface to receive food particles swept off of said upper surface, in which said cutting board has an outer edge and a recess in said edge, said adjustable measuring container being releasably retained within said recess, said container having a support member with a handle extending outwardly from said container and said board and having said barrier member rotatable mounted thereto, and in which said support member has an upstanding barrier member extending therefrom, and said movable barrier member extends downwardly from a rotor mounted underneath said support member, there being an arcuate slot in said support member with a handle extending upwardly through said slot and secured to said rotor to facilitate adjustment of said container volume.
