"M" is molehill

Jack had a tendency to make a 'mountain' out of a
molehill
when he couldn't find his blue parka, or didn't want to call Bobby's teacher because he complained too much.

When Jack proved reluctant to make a move at the rodeo bar, Lureen took a
no-nonsense
approach.

In fact, in Lureen's no-nonsense approach, she very

Proulx described Ennis and Jack as having "a high-time supper by the fire, a can of beans each, fried potatoes, and a quart of whiskey on shares"; thus, the whiskey was in a
quart-size
bottle.
