Em, going to bed tonight: I’m not really Giselle, I’m an evil queen in disguise! I have an evil plan! How can we break my spell?
Me: Maybe we can say some magic words! Like Alakazam! Or Bippity boppity…
Steve, suddenly entering the room: …BACON!
Em …
Me: …
Em: …
Me: Bippity boppity bacon?
Steve: Yes. Bippity boppity BACON!!
Em: (cracks up)
Me: That’s hilarious!
Em: (still cracking up, rolls backwards on her bed, throwing her legs up in the air) That’s hilarious!
Steve freely admits to lifting this from comedian Jim Gaffigan, who does a bit about bacon.
Who cares? It’s funny! And Em may have added “that’s hilarious” to her repertoire. It sounded like something she had latched onto. Fine by me. I’d rather have her cracking bacon jokes than hatching evil schemes.
