What is bakers dozen?

A "baker's dozen" refers to a tradition in which a baker would include 13 items (e.g., pastries, cakes, or bread loaves) instead of the standard 12. This practice has its roots in medieval England.

The origins of the baker's dozen are often attributed to King Henry I, who ruled from 1100 to 1135. At that time, if a baker sold 12 items short of the required weight (usually a pound), he could face severe penalties, including fines or even imprisonment.

To avoid this fate, bakers decided to include an extra item in every dozen they sold. This way, if they were accused of selling undersized baked goods, they could prove their innocence by showing that they had, indeed, included 13 items as standard. Over time, the practice became known as a "baker's dozen."

Today, the term is used metaphorically to describe a situation where someone goes above and beyond what's required or expected. For example: "The company gave us a baker's dozen of new employee benefits, including paid vacation and flexible working hours."
