Thanks to Gloria and Sylvia for choosing me as the
winner.
Today,, I am going to pick
an expression rather than a word, and see if we can get some fun daffynitions.
Don �t use a dictionary, just your imagination
This is another kettle of fish.
I will announce the winner tomorrow night.

Kettle o fish as it is known in Coney Island in Brooklyn New York, is a a tasty concoction made similarly to Kettle Corn. Small bits of fish are fried in peanut oil and sprinkled with cinnamon and dipped in caramel . MMMM, yummy! |

A kettle of fish, despite sounding like some kind of meal, is in fact a hat worn by people that live in or around the confines of the river Fish in the Irish Republic.

it �s a metaphorical expression for something that is impossible, that does not exist. Just like a kettle with fish in it does not exist.
Like in:
"Children who go to bed voluntarily without being sent, coerced, forced by their parents? A kettle of fish!" (Wish they existed...)
"Men who don �t shirk marital discussions? A kettle of fish" (Never seen any.....)
"An employer who offers a pay rise? A kettle of fish" (Always have to fight for one ...)
