Do you really call them Gerrman pancakes? I had no idea where they originate from.

MMM with sugar and lemon juice YUMMMM Im hungry now...

 

[Linz_1987]

Do you have like little measurment cups thathold 250ml exactly? or do you just use anything to measure it with,knowing that a cup is 250ml? If you get my drift!

Yeppers!

It's the same when we're talking about how much to give our bunnie in the way of pellets & greens.

I have 2 measuring scoops that I use for pellets:

1/8 cup = 1 ounce = 30 ml
1/4 cup = 2 ounces = 60 ml



And then there's shots, shooters, and jiggers

These are fancy stainless steel one.

Mine are fancy Tupperware ones

 

[Linz_1987]

There really weird! More space used up in your kitchen cupboards!?

 

[Linz_1987]

I wonder if you find this funny.... A thermos flask?

 

[JimD]

Those are a bit fancier that the ones I have.

I love to cook and couldn't do without my measuring cups and spoons.Especially for baking. You can use a "dash" or a "pinch" when you'recooking, but baking is actually a science of chemical reactions andchanges and it's very important to follow instructions for quantitiesof ingredients.

Hmmmmm....here it would be:

A thermos would be an insulated container, maybe a liter size,to keep things hot or cold.

A flask, maybe a liter size (jk),I would fill with brandy and take to the football game.

 

[Linz_1987]

Aww thats the same over here tooI cant think of anything else to compare!

 

[JimD]

Ummmm...

Here we have subways.
It's a train that runs in long underground tunnels...

....or it's a store that you can but sandwiches.



Sandwiches can be: heros, hoagies, subs, torpedos, dagwoods, clubs, wraps, poor boys, cubanos.....
Enough?

I absolutely LOVE them, but I've got to have a dozen or so. The lemonsauce make the whole thing...thicker than juice and a bit on the sweetside.

The only place I've ever had them is at a popular restaurant here..."IHOP" aka International House of Pancakes.

 

[Linz_1987]

We call Subways the Underground. Ie the London Underground.

Also Subway is a sandwich bar aswell, where you get baguettes and youcan choose what to put in them. I love it in there!

I cant believe you have so many words for a sandwich. Ihavent needed to call them anything other than a sandwich!But we have Sandwiches, rolls, or baguettes.

We call wraps - Burritos.

[Linz_1987]

Whenever I watch Houston Animal Rescue, theyalways use a horse trailer to transport horses which you can seeinto. They just have like bars going across all round andknow shelter, so if it rains, your horse gets wet???

What are they called? And do you all use one of these?

What if you was going to an important show and it rains whileyou are transporting your horse there, and you get there and your horseis all wet so you cant groom it?:?

 

[cheryl]

We call that a horse float or a horsetrailer,but the ones people use for their horses are enclosed so thehorse cannot get wet
