A blessing in disguise
The best of both worlds
Don't judge the book by its cover
Caught between a rock and a hard place
To cut corners
A piece of cake
The last straw
To bite off more than you can chew
To cost and arm and a leg
To break the bank
To make ends meet
Bread and butter
To put all your eggs in one basket
Far cry from
In the heat of the moment
To make/cut a long story short
Once in a blue moon
A drop in the ocean
The tip of the iceberg
To go dutch
To compare apples and oranges
Not my cup of tea
Food for thought
To have a sweet tooth
Down to earth
