hunky-dory
All quite satisfactory
Hunky-dory means everything is fine, satisfactory, or going smoothly: Don't worry, everything's hunky-dory.
The word has a cheerful, slightly old-fashioned tone and often appears in reassurances or ironic understatement: Oh sure, the engine's on fire, but everything's hunky-dory.
