After being away for many years, her brother showed up on her doorstep out of the blue asking for money.
Once in a blue moon I go visit my mother-in-law who lives in the United States.
I always thought of my sister as a cat-lover, so it certainly was a bolt from the blue when she returned home with a dog named Lily.
Once in a blue moon, my daughter will clean her room without being asked to do so.
The chances of a random person winning a lotto is just once in a blue moon, but people are always have the fantasy of winning the big prize pool.
well done, everyone!
