Things you put in your mouth
Bite the bullet
To get an unfavorable situation or chore over with now because it will
need to get finished eventually
Giving someone the cold shoulder
ignonring someone
to be very happy about something
over the moon
Going on a wild goose chase
Doing something that is pointless
Biting off more than you can chew
Not having the capacity to take on a new assignment or task that is just
too taxing
Chip on your shoulder
to be upset by something
Believing someone’s story without proof even though it may seem
unbelievable
The elephant in the room
An issue, person, or problem that someone is trying to avoid
Getting a taste of your own medicine
Being treated the way that you have been treating others
Costs an arm and a leg
super expensive
words mean nothing unless there is action behind them
Straight from the horse’s mouth
Reading or hearing something from the source
Piece of cake
super easy
By the skin of your teeth
Just barely making it
You have to work hard in order to see results
no pain no gain
Killing two birds with one stone
Accomplishing two different tasks in the same undertaking
The last straw
The last difficulty or annoyance that makes the entire situation
unbearable
Hitting the nail on the head
getting or doing something exactly right
Making a choice between two unpleasant choices
between a rock and a hard place
Don’t count your chickens before they hatch
Not to count on something happening until after it’s already happened
