Weekend Wrap-Up: The Spring Break Edition

I’m wrapping up early again this week, as I plan on squeezing every last moment of relaxation out of Spring Break (only two more days) with the boys. After Spring Break, I have six more weeks of chaos at work, and the boys have nine more weeks of chaos at school. And then summer school starts. The very next week.

Next thing you know, it will be the Fourth of July. *Sigh.*

Spring Break, in our house, means the park, fishing, naps, and mindless TV. Like Lost Girl. Which I’ve been watching WAY too much of this week. Zombies and fairies and advertising executives in the 1960s don’t seem like they would mix, but they do. They SO do.

Spring Break also means actual cooking. So we’ll start with what didn’t hit the blog this week, and that is another cooking post. It didn’t hit this week, or last week, or for several weeks, for that matter. But, I did make the Twitterverse jealous with my tales of homemade (but not by me) cannelloni in my oven.

Yeah. You're jealous.

Then there is what I did when I wasn’t here:

I’m back to writing at the lovely Sprocket Ink, which has a pretty, new layout design and header. This made me want to match mine to theirs. You should go and check it out, if you’ve missed it, when you check out my posts on the Hunger Games Haters and what Stand Your Ground Actually Means.

Around the interwebs:

Alex of Late Enough scored another TWO mentions with her hilarious post on How Not to Write and for linking to the Craziest Wifi Names in her weekly wrap up post. My favorite is “You can haz internets.”

Scary Mommy gave me more hope that I can be an accomplished writer someday as well. Also, she wrote the best Momfinitions post ever.

Noa from Oh, Noa reminded me of my favorite post at The Oatmeal. Too bad J didn’t taking dishwasher loading in Home Ec.

And the Bloggess, yet again, confirmed (for me) that we are somehow related, because I’m fairly certain that my great-grandparents had done this at some point in time.

So, what was up this time last year?

I gave you some insight (PG-rated) on what it’s like to live with J.

Which leads me to beg the question: What weird and random witticisms does your spouse come up with that leaves you shaking your head?
