This article gave me the full meaning of expression, which I found in a book Clock Dance by Ann Taylor, but from the beginning I associated it only with "cold". Now I have learned more and appreciate it. Thank you very much!!

I'm reading Edgar Rice Burrough's "The Land that Time Forgot" and he uses the phrase, "Sugar wouldn't melt on his tongue." Having never heard it, I took it to mean he could do no wrong.
