Had The Radish

Exhausted. Completely finished. Since radishes are often used as a garnish, if you've eaten the entire meal, you are "done" and if you've also eaten the garnish (had the radish), you can't possibly do anymore.

"After 10 hours of digging ditches, I've had the radish."

"This 20 year old lawnmower has mowed it's last lawn, it's had the radish."
