“Piece of Cake” is an idiom that means “easy.” I’ve never understood where that idiom comes from, since making a cake isn’t easy (although eating one is).
Want an explanation about the title of today’s post? Piece of cake.
- I often think about what’s easy and what’s difficult for me and other people.
- In group and individual therapy, people talk about how changing old behaviors and patterns of thinking is NOT a piece of cake.
- I’ve changed my diet to drastically reduce all sweets, including pieces of cake.
- Including photos in my blog SHOULD be a piece of cake, but isn’t.
Taking photos like those is a piece of cake for me (although sharing them with you isn’t).
