The lastmealofthemonth had bee an eagerly awaited family adventure and I‘ll admit, I enjoyed the challenge. ―I don‘t know,‖ I answered, ―but I‘m sure I‘ll e up with something.‖ My son watched as I gathered whatever I found in the refrigerator and cupboards and placed them on the counter where my imagination would magically work out a dinner plan. With a low ine and five hungry mouths to feed, plus our pets, we needed a plan. We made every penny count. It made sense that the more shopping trips we made, the more money we spent and so we shopped once a month, saving money as well as gasoline. In the summer we gardened, preserving our food by canning or freezing our harvest. During the fall and winter I picked delicious greens stored in an old sliding glass can. We ate simple foods and only in season. No recipes here. And while my family should have eagerly awaited that first meal of the month, when the house was full of fleshly stocked groceries, the lastmealofthemonth was the one that attracted all the attention. It became an amusing guessing game as the family wondered what I‘d e up with next. One evening I placed my lastmealofthemonth masterpiece on the table. ―What‘s that?‖ my kids asked, excitedly waiting for the mystery dinner. As I removed the lid from the pan, I heard ―Seems yummy!‖The family ate the entire meal and insisted I make it again soon. As we cleared the table, my daughter asked, ―Mom, what was in that sauce?‖ With a smile on my face I proudly answered, ―I made it from the leftover green peas.‖ My children are all grown, but today I still budget. Delicious homemade food is one of life‘s greatest pleasures and a family tradition, but we keep it simple in our home. And believe it or not, we still eat a few of our favorite 1astdayofthemonth, throwntogether meals. Simple doesn‘ t get any better than that! 21.

An idiom is a group of words which, when used together, has a different meaning from the one which the individual words have. For example, ―How do you know that Sid and Nancy have separated ?” “ I heard it on the grapevine(葡萄藤 )” . Of course, the second speaker does not mean he heard the news about John by putting his ear to a grapevine! He is conveying the idea visually of information spreading
