Yo. I was at an apple ~~orchid~~ orchard and there was a bag of apples and it stated 1/2 peck bag. I didn't know that means. I still don't. Volume? Weight? Whatever, do you want some apples or not?
I asked the cashier, "Hey, so what exactly is a peck? Like what would the amount be?"
He responded, " Well, like , if you took this bag and filled it up with apples then that would be 1/2 peck of apples."
I didn't want to explain to him why that didn't help because I thought he might have been a bit too high to give me a valid answer. They made good apple cider donuts there, though. Yum.
An orchid is a flower. A group of trees is sn orchard.
so 8.81 liters for the rest of us. Now we just need to work out what a dry gallon is.
No... No!
screeches and turns to dust
That's why they talk so easily about unities like "goalposts per supercarrier", US people are used to the confusion.
😂 well thanks for this. I feel somehow more informed and also more confused.
I corrected the orchid/orchard thing so at least I got that going. 😊
