Izzy rode to New Orleans last weekend to see our goddaughter "Idabeck" (middle) perform as a mouse and a baker in the Nutcracker with the N.O. Ballet.
At dinner one evening, IdaBeck was describing an outfit.
IdaBeck: The top is pink and the skirt is brown.
Izzy: (sung) The dashboard's genuine leather.*
All the grown-ups gaffawed, and Idabeck, figuring out that she'd done something to amuse the adults, joined in the laughter.

*All together now:
"With isinglass curtains y' can roll right down,
in case there's a change in the weather."
