Pride and joy as a plural

English Language & Usage Asked by Spankyd on March 2, 2021

I just came across some text in a book which stated, “it was one of his prides and joys“. That sounds wrong to me. It seems as if it should be pride and joys, since that phrase is considered a package deal, rather than two separate things. What would be the correct usage in this case?
