As a teacher I used to say these sayings were why it was so hard to teach children the concept of time. In a minute, in a moment, just a second, in a little while, give me a minute is the same as give me a second...it's no wonder they didn't get it. I used to tell them things were "one Spongebob" long. Days were marked by how many "sleeps". It's four "sleeps" to vacation.

A scant quarter inch means not an exact quarter inch but "purt near"!

And don't forget a speck and a dash!

I give all of my quilts " a lick and a promise" of perfection. I am OK with that.

A nip...what some folks "start" the weekend fun with!
