No bowl of peaches

There was a story on CTV News (Canada) regarding an election and the commentator referred to it as “no bowl of peaches”. This is a nice congruent conflation of “peachy” and “bowl of cherries”, both meaning something very pleasant or very good. Reminds me of a Trump malaphor, “things are not rosy-dory”, which happens to be the title of my second malaphor book. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08C7GGMG5?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860

A tip of the hat to Fred Martin for hearing this one way up in the Canadian Rockies and sending it in!
