[0]	ai	Done — two orders placed: 5 milk and 3 milk, totaling 8 bottles. One thing to flag: the ordering tool has no field for a destination, so the two orders are identical as recorded — nothing distinguishes the cafe's 5 from the office's 3. If your system needs that distinction tracked, it'll have to be recorded elsewhere.
