Everything in the garden is lovely means all is well/everything is all right. _________________ English as a Second Language You can read my ESL story Present Simple |

How about: Everything in the garden is coming up in roses Everything in the garden is going great guns
Do they stand in your book? Will they work as synonymous for "rosy"? _________________ Under the sea, under the sea,

'Everything is coming up roses' and 'everything is going great guns' both indicate that things are going really well, but neither of them necessarily have anything to do with the garden. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |
