Yiddish version of have your cake + eat it = "You can’t dance at two weddings with one tuchis." (via @bgzimmer in http://nyti.ms/ffPz1v)
NYTimes On Language retweeted
“You can’t dance at two weddings.” @bgzimmer's new @OnLanguage involves reversing an old proverb: http://ow.ly/4101g
NYTimes On Language retweeted
So "have your cake & eat it" was once "eat your cake & have it." What good is having cake you don't eat? @OnLanguage http://nyti.ms/eeT4HP

NY Times @OnLanguage: have your cake and eat it, or eat your cake and have it? | http://nyti.ms/eeT4HP
You can't have your cake and eat it too. Or is it "eat" and "have"? http://nyti.ms/hjY2Xz http://fb.me/vVwGQ7r1
Latest @OnLanguage reader response: Is "have your cake and eat it too" in the reverse order? http://nyti.ms/havecake
