In addition to what Jen Faulkner wrote, here are some conversions.

5 ml = 1 tsp (teaspoon)
15 ml= 1 T (or TBLS) (tablespoon)

1 cup= 8 oz = 240 ml

1 lb = 16 oz = 2.2 kg

Generally, a box of powdered sugar is what Jen said terms of cup 
measurement and it is also 1 lb or 2.2 kg in weight.

The US is legally metrified, since 1975 I think. But we've 
successfully resisted metrification. All goods sold in cans, bottles 
and other containers and packages are marked with metrically and 
marked the "normal" way. But no one really pays attention to the 
metric. Gasoline is sold by the gallon. Potatoes are sold by the 
pound. Distance is measured in inches, feet, yards and miles. 

The only time I use metric is at work because medications are measured 
metrically.
