Iman nods in sympathy and agreement with all of Greta's pronouncements, then watches casually as she samples the soup. She grins a little at the approval and says, "We'll see. Baking's quite a bit different, seems to me. One of the sciences that I never did pick up."
The question catches her off guard, but of course she should have considered that - Greta comes from a time where cold was cold and hot was hot. "Sure thing," she says, picking up the phone and opening the weather app. "This big one is the temperature - that's how cold or how warm it is outside. In this country it's measured on a scale called Fahrenheit. Right now it's 75 - that's pretty warm, I'd call it perfect weather, actually. 80s is starting to get hot, 90s and above is too hot. And when winter comes it'll start to drop - 40s and 50s are all right, 30s and below is where you're gonna want to start wearing a coat." Hopefully that helps. "You can see what the projected numbers are throughout the day - it's not always accurate. And these other numbers are really specific information like humidity and stuff. That you probably don't need to worry about."
