Bringing home the Bacon

Often times when I explain to my daughter why I have to go back to work, I tell her that I have to bring home that bacon. Then she gives me this look, thinking, yeah, I guess we don't have any bacon. Yesterday I go home for lunch, and Haley wanted to go swim. I said, "Sorry Bubb, I have to go back to work." She looks me in the eye with a very serious face and says, "Because you gotta bring home that bacon?" I laughed and said yes, yes I do. I didn't realize I fell into her trap...quick on her feet she runs to the Fridge and yells, with a smug smile on her face, "but we already got some right here! -You can go swim with me now!"
