Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes right to the bone.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Stop crying or I'll give you something to cry about!
She's one sandwich short of a picnic.
I come from such a confused family that I could go to a
family reunion with just me, a sandwich and a blanket.
She's so tough that she uses Ajax for a facial cleanser.

My sisters and I often say that to each other when we are waiting, waiting, waiting...
