What do they mean?    Define each.

A penny for your thought: you say it when you want to know what other people is
thinking about but they do not tell you anything.

Add insult to injury: make others’ sorrow worse

A hot potato: something will cause serious problems for you

Once in a blue moon: quite rarely

Caught between two stools

See eye to eye

Hear it on the grapevine

Miss the boat: passed a opportunity

Kill two birds with one stone: Do just one work but complete two or more goals

On the ball

Cut corners

To hear something straight from the horse's mouth

Costs an arm and a leg: extremely expensive

The last straw:

Take what someone says with a pinch of salt

Sit on the fence

The best of both worlds

Put wool over other people's eyes: Hide something from other people

Feeling a bit under the weather

Speak of the devil!: something suprisingly appear
