1. "Up to our usual tricks" or "Up to our old tricks." This would be a response to a "how are you" question or it might be used about someone else who was up to no good.
2. "That would be the kiss of death." She used this phrase to mean that something would be the end of some plan or activity. This was not usually used as part of a sentence but as a response phrase.
3. "I'm busier than a one-armed paper hanger." This is one of my personal favorites because it is exactly how it feels sometimes to be so busy and not making much headway on some big project. Mom would use it to mean she was extra busy.
