  1. "everything but kitchen sink"

  2. "great minds think alike"

  3. at the drop of a hat

  4. "icing on the cake"


as i promised i come back with british idioms
hope you like it all
let's start
Be (as) cool as a cucumber
Meaning:
very calm and relaxed even in a difficult situation
If someone is (as) cool as a cucumber, he/she is very relaxed and/or calm when you expect him/her to be nervous or upset.
Example:
He had very bad news last night, but he came to the office as cool as a cucumber this morning as if nothing had happened.
She was cool as a cucumber even right after she was fired
For example:
"The president was embarassed to have his dirty linen aired in public."
Meaning :
To have your private or personal problems discussed in public.
"Burn a hole in one's pocket."
For example:
"He was never able to save any money, it always burned a hole in his pocket."
To have money that you just want to spend.
"you can't judge a book by its cover"
You can't judge a book by its cover means that when you have only seen the surface of something, you cannot know what is on the inside
Example: "That professor may seem slow and awkward, but don't judge a book by its cover. He is one of the brightest minds in his field."

"everything but kitchen sink"

Everything but the kitchen sink is what you brought with you when you included almost everything you could think to bring. Example: "Wow, your suitcase is huge. What do you have in there? Everything but the kitchen sink?"
Everything but the kitchen sink means that you included almost everything you could think to include. Example: "My dad's new luxury car is great. It has everything but the kitchen sink."
"word of mouth"
Something that you heard from other people you know by word of mouth. Example: "How did you hear about this party?" Reply: "Word of mouth."
"mouth" to "mouth". Example: "Did you hear they finally arrested that guy?" Reply: "Yes, but that's only word of mouth." Example: "Where did you hear that?" Reply: "Just word of mouth."

"great minds think alike"

Great minds think alike" means that great people think about things in similar ways. Example: "I was just thinking to call you, then the phone rang and it was you calling me." Reply: "Great minds think alike
Great minds think alike." When you and another person think the same thing at the same time, one of you might say, "Great minds think alike."
"out of the blue"
Something that happens out of the blue is sudden and unexpected. Example: "They seemed to be talking calmly when out of the blue she slapped him in the face!"

at the drop of a hat

If you would do something quickly and easily, without thinking about it, you would do it at the drop of a hat. Example: "Would you travel around the world if you had the money?" Reply: "At the drop of a hat."

"icing on the cake"

When one great thing happens, then another great thing happens on top of it, the second thing is the icing on the cake. Example: "Today I was promoted to head of the department! And they decided to raise my pay!" Answer: "Wow! Icing on the cake!" We all love to eat delicious cake, and sometimes the cake has an extra sweet layer of icing on the top; that is the icing on the cake
Finally wishing you all
icing on the cake
goodluck
