two birds

I had cause this morning to want to use the phrase "kill two birds with one stone" but have never liked the imagery so wondered if there was an alternative. I'm pleased to say others are way ahead of the game and was particularly delighted by this website:

My favourite contenders include
"Bake 2 desserts in the one oven"
and "Free two birds with the one key"

Language can be very powerful - I shall be on the lookout today for other opportunities to counter violence!! xx
