  "A True Story Told While Using English Food Idioms       Rate This The thing about food idioms, a true story, for ELT & ESL readers: Remember people telling you there is no such thing as a free lunch? They tell us this is a pie in the sky idea. Well, I just got evidence to the contrary. I received an e-mail coupon for online ordering for two free dishes from a local restaurant. First I thought they are full of beans! But I ordered and the apple of my eye picked them up. I have to confess that I usually don’t eat out for lunch because this could eat us out of house and home! I was hungry as a bear. The wait time as slow as molasses in January. The food was wonderful and FREE. Unfortunately, it was a very small serving so I ate like a bird. I am thinking this will be my one lifetime example for a free lunch. So, in a nutshell, eat crow, you nay sayers! I guess,it is worth your salt to check out online offers. For dessert, I would like a cake and then eat it, too. The end"
