Yup. It's 9 degrees outside, but my oven is baking cookies at 400 degrees. And I have no idea how tall I am in cm. Except that I'm 5' 9 1/2". And when I make sausage, I measure the meat in pounds but everything else in grams. The butcher charges me $4.49/Lb. for pork bellies, but my flour comes in 10Kg bags. That's Canada, for you - totally fractured metric.
