A note to Sweden: we don't have one-fifth cups over here
“I want you to read the directions,” said Bunny. She dropped a packet of
Swedish meatball sauce she picked up at Ikea [1] on my desk.
[Mmmmmm ... Swedish meatballs] [2]
I flip the package over and start reading. “Pour one and a third cup of water
”
Bunny interrupted. “Read closer.”
[A fifth of Jack I might understand, but ... ] [3]
“One and a fifth?”
“Yes. One and a fifth.”
“There's no such measurement.”
“Yes.”
“Wow.”
