put something on ice
to postpone or suspend a project or plan indefinitely · to temporarily halt progress on something
What's the situation?
This expression is perfect for when a project or idea needs to be paused, perhaps due to budget constraints, changing priorities, or a lack of resources, but it's not completely canceled. It's like saying, "Let's save it for later, but we're not throwing it out!" 🥶🧊 It's very common in project management and strategic planning.
