Take it with a grain of sugar

Unlike the original saying "Take it with a grain of salt", this term is used when you tell someone something heavy or harsh, but you want them to take it as nicely and sweetly as possible (which is where the sugar part comes in).

"Take it with a grain of sugar, but you look like you just rolled out of a grave"
"Take it with a grain of sugar, but your soufflé is terrible"

three grains of rice

When you have no appetite, and feels as though three grains of rice will fill you up; contrasted with "opposite of three grains of rice" where one is ravenous and begins to ask others for their food.

I'm so three grains of rice, I barely made it through that third grain, one more and I'll vom! Or
I'm the opposite of three grains today, are you eating these stale saltines?
