Append the grocery_item hash to the empty array that's under the grocery_list hash's 'items' key.
Am I correct in thinking that this is referring to interpolation? Making the contents of the empty array from the first Hash, the contents of the second hash?
grocery_list = { 'title' => 'Grocery List', 'items' => [] }
grocery_item = { 'title' => 'Bread', 'quantity' => 1 }

You can gain access to the empty array by using square brackets after grocery_list and passing in the key, 'items'. Then, use dot notation to push the grocery_item onto the array.
Make sense? Let me know how you get on.
Steve.

Got there eventually, thanks! Opted for using '<<' rather than .push but thanks for the help.
