Hello everyone,

This idiom game is a good idea. It is better, however, if we try to write down as correctly as possible. Otherwise, learning English idioms would not be helpful at all.

First, I would like to remark that the correct idiom is "a pIEce of cake". Although the slight difference in spelling the two words pEAce and pIEce are tremendously different in meaning.

Now here is my contribution: ""As cool as a cucumber!" meaning a self-controlled person.

have fun and talk to you later :)
