A new one to me

     "This has certainly put the butter on the spinach. I feel a new man."

    This expression is from the Wodehouse novel, Thank You, Jeeves, published in 1934. It was not familiar to me. It obviously is intended to be positive. It supposedly means getting an extra source of income to help ends meet. I don't know that I would want to try it from a dietary standpoint, but it would be nice from a financial viewpoint.
