I just realized while cooking that a measuring-cup cup (as measured out as 250mL in a glass measuring cup) is the same amount(s) as one of the actual plastic baking measuring cups that go inside each other like Russian dolls lol
I thought they were different somehow (something something imperial metric yadda yadda yaddda)
Your turn to come clean Lemmings!

I think everyone should get a pass on pronouncing the names of British places. All pronunciations are equally correct. Don’t like it? Don’t name a place “Michaeleaulourhoroughsbleachhhiffynboroughshire”
Yeah, when “Leicester” is pronounced “Lester”, you have no hope of figuring pronunciation out without help.
The “ice” is silent. Why is the ice silent?
Because the English decided they were going to save those letters for later.

This is basically my approach to my last name as well.
Did it have some of the right sounds? Good enough; I know you meant me, don’t sweat it. Literally nobody ever gets it right, but as long as they don’t mangle it in a very specific way, I don’t care.
