What exactly is a "peck?"

As in a "peck of tomatoes"?

 

[Reptyle]

A derogatory term for a Nelwin...Should never be used in their presence.

A peck is 1/4 of a bushel.

I learned this only yesterday while teaching my students the first lesson in the Pre-Algebra book!! (though I am sure I have read/heard it before)

Never ask your sweetie for a peck on the cheek when she's picking tomatoes.
