Happy Friday!
This weeks fun phrase is ” Take it with a grain of salt”
Meaning: Be skeptical; examine it ( a statement or idea) carefully before you accept it.
History: The thought seems to be that a bit of salt makes food easier to swallow. It is old enough to have a Latin version.One of John Trapp’s commentaries on the Bible in 1647 carried the line: “This is to be taken with a grain of salt.”
