All these baby references Miss Katz, you're not trying to tell us something ARE you?

.....Everything but the Squeal .....

An idiom expressed by 7 year old Luke Chandler, narrator and main character in the John Grisham novel, A Painted House..

"The hog killing would come in December, when the air was cold and the bacteria dead. Every year a hog was shot in the head, dipped in boiling water, and hung from a tree next to the tool shed, then gutted and butchered into a thousand pieces. From it we got bacon, ham, loin, sausage and ribs. Everything was used --tongue, brains, feet. "Everything but the Squeal" was a line I'd heard all my life, " ~ Luke Chandler (pp. 374, A Painted House, Grisham, J. Double Day Publishers, NY NY, February 2001).

...Easier Said Than Done ...

This thematic idiom has come up a bunch of times lately, for me, when dealing with people who have no real grasp of my situation. What this idiom means, is that the person who hears something that seems easily solved, forgets that no thing is ever easily solved. Thus, the gentle reminder (the idiom above) is often stated as a reminder (easier said than done).

"In The Weeds"...........

Immersed or entangled in details or complexities.

Idiom used often by restaurant workers to indicate overwhelmed and falling behind in serving customers!
