More from Chavi Kaufman

My daughter (affectionately known here on the blog as Chavi Kaufman) is at it again!

We were playing a game together on Shabbos when she devised a strategy that put her way ahead of me and very close to winning the game.
"WELL!" said Chavi "That worked like a clam!"
I looked at her questioningly...Like a clam?... Like... a... clam...OH!
"Don't you mean it worked like a charm?" I finally asked
"No." said Chavi "You must be thinking of some other expression."

Happy as a clam + Working like a charm = Working like a clam...

She must have been very happy about (almost) winning...

LOL!

I used to have a friend who said "happy as a clam" all the time... and then he said "sad as a clam" and I thought, well, okay...

StepIma:

in that case it sounds like a general-purpose intensifier, like "beast"

When I first started commenting, I planned on making myself known very soon. I'm starting to like the anonymity though...

But will we know who you are?

Well either way "the one" it's nice having you.
