Hi Judi!
Thanks for visiting Love Romance Passion.
Hiding my head in my cauldron, these are sooooo….awful! But, I’ll try anyway. I love idioms, they’re so much fun. So, in keeping with my love of idiomisms, here goes:
Instead of: Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.
Try: Don’t look a magic lamp in the spout.

Instead of: Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
Try: Where there’s smoke, there’s a genie.

I know, I know! Don’t say it!
