a piece of cake

When you say something is a "piece of cake," it means it is very easy to do.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, African Americans started "cake walks." They walked or danced around a cake in pairs, and the best couple won the cake. This is how the idioms "cake walk" and "piece of cake" came about -- both meaning that something is very easy to do.

It was a piece of cake.

It was a piece of cake is the response of "you really aced that one" as they are both away to tell each other that they're ace.

"You really aced that one." He said as he looked at the drawing of the dragon.
"It was a piece of cake." she replied
His eye widen then hers. FINALLY.
"YOU TOO?" she hadn't meant to scream it, but Holy Fuck . He nodded, torn between shushing you and screaming as well.
"Wanna get cake sometime or something?"

sad piece of a cake

Postscriptum:

crazily but not happily. sometimes elevates me and i get a deepest happiness and everything seems to flow. but i can read Jesus or Nina Simone for that, don't need to follow no blog or podcast.
sad thing: only ever just the "potential" of love, never direct, not to mention welcome, seen, asked, called, heard, hugged. just a chocolate box saved for later.

today's sad piece of a cake, theres many other pieces that make it whole, each carrying a different emotion.
