Phase " Bringing Home the Bacon" Do You Say It ?

Ask a Question

I was watching the golf with my husband and one of players was 8 under, so I said he's bringing home the bacon, meaning he is in the £ and I thought what equivalent phase would a vegetarian or someone who's religion forbids them from eating pork use.

So, I wondered if this a phrase which is no longer in popular use and I am just behind the times aka old.😁

Full disclosure I have had a glass or two of wine, so if I am talking nonsense ignore me

MelissaLee1 Its great when something like that happens. Plus it's really versatile, lots of recipes you can try. I had gammon and pineapple the other night, to use up the pineapple, very retro, but it was delicious 😀
