So what had happened was Cookie and I watched RuPaul’s Drag Race (why aren’t you watching it?) and there was part where Latrice Royale was asked to take the other queens to “church” so he started singing “Jesus is a biscuit, let him sop you up!” and everyone was clapping and singing along and it made everyone so happy. It made ME happy. So now Cookie and I sing it at least once when we’re together.

I was telling mom about it, and when I started singing it and clapping along (you have to clap when you sing it.) she grabbed a pencil and started writing.
“What are you doing?”
“What was the last part? Sop you up?”
“Yeah. Why?”
“I’m seeing if I can fit that on the church sign.”
“NO WAY, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!”
“Can I change it to Jesus is the bread?”
“No, it’s biscuit. Biscuit is one thousand times better.”
Even dad, who was also at the table was all, “Yeah, it’s gotta be biscuit.”
“Well, I don’t know about calling Jesus a biscuit.”
“C’mon babe, we live in the south. Southern people love biscuits. They’ll get it.”
“Yeah, Ma. It’ll only work with biscuit.”
“Well can I call him THE biscuit instead of A biscuit.”
“Geez, I guess? Is it really that big of a deal?”
“I just think it’s better to call him THE biscuit.”
“Fine, I mean, if he was A biscuit I guess he’d be THE biscuit anyway.”
“I don’t know if all of this will fit on the sign.”
“Oh. Well, okay.”
“But I’ll try.”
“…”
“…”
Then we spontaneously break out into, “Jesus is a biscuit, let him sop you up!”

That was last weekend. Today I got a text from mom, “I put the sign up!”
I couldn’t believe she did it! So I grabbed the camera and drove out to the church, snapped a picture, uploaded it, and posted it to Latrice Royale’s facebook page. Because why wouldn’t i?
She even commented on it!
BOOSH. I just won life.
