What To Do With Unwanted Cheese?
Seems I am getting more creative everyday. My sons decided they no longer liked the mozzarella stick cheese anymore. Hence, I decided to grate it up and use it on a Chicken Parmesan dish I was making. Decided to share this since it worked great!
Now I just need a few more easy recipes that call for grated mozzarella... any suggestions?

Blogger Stalking
Sounds like an odd title. But wRitErsbLock is off to find Tink in the crazy city of Orlando.
Definition of Stalk:
1. a stem, shaft, or slender supporting part of anything
2. to proceed through (an area) in search of prey or quarry
3. a slow, stiff stride or gait.
Hmmm. Wonder which one wRitErsbLock's block was thinking about?

LemonStand was kind enough to let me spend some time on her blog. Here are a couple of links to some jokes I left over there:

And just because I need to put in one from Tot:

Chicken who?
Chicken in the toilet, don't flush it.
I kid you not... I almost spewed my dinner when he told it the first time. And it still makes me smile.

On A Different Note
A commenter stopped by and asked me to visit his site. Oddly enough, I actually went on over and checked it out. Lately I don't have time to comment but one or two words, much less go check out something new. But I did. It's called "Maybe Baby".
Wow. The writing was excellent. I was also able to empathize since I have gone through something similar with Tater. Though I consider myself one of the lucky ones.
But being the female side of the coin, I didn't have to deal with: "It is my fervent belief that the band that discusses the lead singer?s sperm quality together stays together."
Did I mention this very funny and well versed man asked for my help on his blog? yaa... you can stop laughing now. And start laughing again when you find out that I sent him to Harvey's site. What I forgot was to mention that Harvey's site is not for the faint of heart. I think that's ok, he'll make it alright. And if he can handle checking out Harvey's site and a few of my comments, I might even ask him if I can adopt him. I only have blog daughters. It would be nice to have a blog son. So keep your hands off of him Family!!! Other than to go visit and see what it is like to try and get pregnant when you can't from a maybe dad's point of view.

Tea With Tot - NOT
Tot and I were suppose to have a Mother's Tea at preschool today. Didn't happen. Turns out Tot came down with Croup this weekend and was not really doing better on Monday morning. I made a doctor's appt and skipped the tea. When I went to pick up Tater, I stopped by to say hi to Tot's teachers and they presented me with the following stuff:

New Trees, Dead Grass
My grass is turning a nice brown. I should have taken another picture today... it looks funny around the trees with a little ring of green and the rest being pretty brown.

The Map!
My boys love treasure hunts. I draw maps and we go an look for stuff. This time it was Tater who drew the map.
I was surprised that I could figure out most of the stuff. The last couple of items caught me by surprise. Start on the upper left and then go down to the right and back up again. See more pawprints to see the answer.

Therapy for My Boys
If you have a college bound child, they might want to consider going into the field of therapy. My boys are certainly going to need it. They got to attend a Gyn appointment with me yesterday. Nothing like explaining to your children what is going on and why.
Thank goodness it is Friday. While I'm at it... I love THIS SITE that Ogre pointed out. He doesn't post that much but what he does post makes me laugh. Particularly THIS ONE.

Cool Websites
It's been a rather hectic week. Instead of stories about my boys, I present to you some websites:
Learn to read at Starfall
Go visit Ms Dewey and do NOT type anything. Just sit and watch it. I laughed so hard watching her. And try the 'best of Dewey' to the right of the search line.
Web Watchdog has some interesting articles
Past and Future Calendar entries to tell you the day of the week in the year 4000.
Those with an odd sense of humor and time to listen to messages... check out Sorry Gotta Go.

More Humor for Dreaded Wednesday
Odd tidbits found around the web because I can picture it happening at my house someday:
From a Boy's Life, May 1973:
Ralph: Dad, will you do my math for me tonight?
Dad: No, son, it wouldn't be right.
Ralph: Well, you could try.
= = = = =
Little Johnny was busy doing his homework. As his mother approached she heard:
"One and one, the son-of-a-b.tch is two."
"Two and two, the son-of-a-b.tch is four."
"Three and three... "
His mother interrupted, asking where he had learned this way of doing math. Johnny remarked that his teacher Ms. Clara Jones taught him. His mother was rather upset and told him to stop the homework.
The next day she approached Ms. Jones and told her what happened. The teacher was flabbergasted. She said that she couldn't understand why Johnny had said what he did.
Then suddenly, Ms Jones exclaimed, "Oh, I know... here in school we say, one and one, the sum-of-which is two."
= = = =
Mathematic puns are the first sine of madness (Johann Von Haupkoph)
= = = =
Mother: Why are you placing a tablecloth with the word "truth" on it on the study table?
Daughter: Mom, I'd like to make this a "truth table."
= = = =
Are you groaning yet???
= = = =
And for some very old humor:
What is the square root of 69? 8 something ("Ate something")
What about sqrt(-69)? I 8 something
Q:and what about 68?
A: do me and i'll owe you 1.
= = = =
Yaa... and you keep dropping by to see what silly humor I'm going to put up next week. ;-)

Oldie but goodie... particularly after tax time.
At the end of the tax year, the Tax Office sent an inspector to audit the books of a Synagogue. While he was checking the books he turned to the Rabbi and said, I notice you buy a lot of candles. What do you do with the candle drippings?
Good question, noted the Rabbi. We save them up and send them back to the candle makers, and every now and then they send us a free box of candles.
Oh, replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer, but on he went, in his obnoxious way. What about all these bread-wafer purchases? What do you do with the crumbs?
Ah, yes, replied the Rabbi, realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question. We collect them and send them back to the manufacturers, and every now and then they send us a free box of bread-wafers.
I see, replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all Rabbi. Well, Rabbi, he went on, what do you do with all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?
Here, too, we do not waste, answered the Rabbi. What we do is save all the foreskins and send them to the Tax Office, and about once a year they send us a complete dick.

ER 104
Or maybe the title should have been ER visit from 1am to 4am? I think I should have a contest on how many ER visits we will make this year? Any guesses? We made one last night. I'm exhausted. Good thing I wrote those posts last night for this morning. Usually I have a week's worth ready but not this week... and I sure wish I did.
Luckily I have some good friends and blogger buddies sending me humor. You'll see it over the next couple of weeks.
And if you are interested? The kids are fine. Mom and Dad are exhausted, fussy and need more sleep. ;-)

You have done a lot for me over the years... like taking care of my finances while I galavanted all over the world, helping me put in a window in my house, and change all the plug covers. Ahhh the list could go on and on.
I know we don't talk much, but I do think of you often. **hugs** and I hope you have a wonderful birthday.

My Time of Death Was Exaggerated
While talking to Tink on the phone after picking up the boys... an interesting conversation occurred. Tater told me he was hungry. Really really hungry. He wanted to eat right that minute. I stopped talking to Tink and told him we would be eating shortly.
Tater: Mom, you are going to die after 2pm
**blink** **silence on my side of the phone**
**laughter out of Tink**
Me: Why am I going to die?
Tater: Because I'm soooo hungry
**silence because now I'm tearing up and trying not to laugh out loud**
**more laughter out of Tink, and she wants to know if Tater can save me**
Me: If I feed you, will you save me? (Or something of that nature was said while being prompted by Tink)
Tater: Yes, I'll save you mom.
I am amazed daily by the odd conversations I have with my children. They are soooo going to need therapy when they get older.

Lions Tigers and Droughts - Oh NO!
I'm sick, I'm tired and now I'm annoyed. This post is going to be a rant about the drought conditions in South Florida. Blame Pamibe... I was reading her post when all of my pissiness decided to come forward on this item. Ok, so it's not her fault. I have been annoyed about it for weeks, but she was the catalyst that made me decide to write a post.
If you go TO THIS SITE and check out our 'drought conditions' over the last three years. THREE YEARS. We have been in drought conditions. Not once did we ever get put on water restrictions in THREE YEARS.

The Seniors Breakfast Special
**********************************
We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the "seniors' special" was two eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast for $1.99.
"Sounds good," my wife said. "But I don't want the eggs."
"Then I'll have to charge you two dollars and forty-nine cents because you're ordering a la carte," the waitress warned her.
"You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?" my wife asked incredulously.
"YES!!" stated the waitress.
"I'll take the special then." my wife said.
"How do you want your eggs?" the waitress asked.
"Raw and in the shell," my wife replied.
She took the two eggs home.
DON'T MESS WITH SENIORS!!! We've been around the block more than once

A guy walks into the local welfare office, marches straight up to the counter and says. "Hi.. You know, I just HATE drawing welfare checks. I'd really rather have a job."
The social worker behind the counter says, "Your timing is excellent. We just got a job opening from a very wealthy old man who wants a chauffeur and bodyguard for his beautiful nymphomaniac daughter. You'll have to drive around in his Mercedes, but he'll supply all of your clothes. Because of the long hours meals will be provided. You'll be expected to escort her on her overseas holiday trips. You will have to satisfy her s.xual urges. You'll be provided a two-bedroom apartment above the garage. The starting salary is $90,000 a year."
The guy wide-eyed, says "You're Bullshitting me!
The Social Worker says, "Yeah, well........You started it."

Weekend Trip Info
One of those interesting moments when you get to the places you want to take pictures and realize your camera battery is low... so low it won't let you take a picture. Yaa... and the one I charged is 100s of miles away at home. Seems I forgot to put in the new battery and bring the charger. Sigh. We had one camera that was working (Tot's) and it needed batteries as well as Tater's. Luckily their cameras take AAs. Phew. Here are some pictures from their cameras since MY camera does NOT take normal batteries.

Road Trip
We are going on a road trip for the weekend. While I will come back with some good blog fodder, I will not be taking my laptop with me. Those who have access to my blog are welcome to drop in a line or two... otherwise, you will have me back on the same bat spider time, same bat spider channel on Monday (or Tuesday).
Enjoy the break! I know I plan on it.
And just to drive you nuts because you can't get it out of your head once you start singing it:
Spiderman, Spiderman,
Does whatever a spider can
Spins a web, any size,
Catches thieves just like flies
Look Out!
Here comes the Spiderman.
Is he strong?
Listen bud,
He's got radioactive blood.
Can he swing from a thread
Take a look overhead
Hey, there
There goes the Spiderman.
In the chill of night
At the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light
He arrives just in time.
Spiderman, Spiderman
Friendly neighborhood Spiderman
Wealth and fame
He's ignored
Action is his reward.
To him, life is a great big bang up
Whenever there's a hang up
You'll find the Spider man.
Enjoy the break! I know I plan on it.

Is he strong?
Listen bud,
He's got radioactive blood.
Can he swing from a thread
Take a look overhead
Hey, there
There goes the Spiderman.
In the chill of night
At the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light
He arrives just in time.
Spiderman, Spiderman
Friendly neighborhood Spiderman
Wealth and fame
He's ignored
Action is his reward.
To him, life is a great big bang up
Whenever there's a hang up
You'll find the Spider man.

More Humor for Dreaded Wednesday
After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security.
The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age.
I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home.
I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.
The woman said, "Unbutton your shirt." So I opened shirt revealing my curly silver hair.
She said, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me", and she processed my Social Security application.
When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.
She said, "You should have dropped your pants... you might have gotten disability, too."

I have been sick for a week now... and for some reason this just hit me as really funny...
The makers of Viagra funded a study at Stanford to see why the head of a man's pe-nis was larger than the shaft. After 1 year and $180,000, the researchers concluded that the reason that the head was larger than the shaft was to give the man more pleasure during s.x.
After they published the study, the makers of Cialis decided to fund their own study. After $250,000 and 3 years of research, the Berkeley researchers concluded that the reason the head was larger than the shaft was to give the woman more pleasure during s.x.
M.I.T., unsatisfied with these findings, conducted their own study. After 2 weeks, a cost of around $75.46, and 2 cases of beer, they concluded that it was to keep a man's hand from flying off and hitting himself in the forehead.

When Does School End?
I just realized that preschool ends in 4 weeks. FOUR. How long before school ends for everyone else? What about states other than Florida?

Some Easter Day Pictures
Little behind on getting these out.. but they are cute and bring back memories... they found their easter baskets... about an hour after they got up. The Easter Bunny Mammaw got them most of the candy and the chocolate bunnies. Side Note: They still haven't eaten it all... give less next year!
After dumping the candy and toys out of the baskets, outside to find the eggs...
and let us not forget a picture of the bunny... Tot ate the candy eye and the tail off to start... I forgot to get a picture of Tater's!
The boys also got some non-spill bubble stick and holder. Seems to work until they turn it upside down. ;-)
= = = =
Tater kept posing... I gave up on an action picture and just got his cute self!

Just a Little Fat
Nothing like having a child to keep you on your toes. Here is a conversation we had at the dinner table the other night... one of the unusual dinners with daddy at the table with us...
Out of the blue while we are all eating -
Tater: You're just a little fat aren't you mom?
Mom: **blink blink** Uhhh. Yes.
Tater: Dad, your really fat, right?
Dad: **shocked look** You really should not comment on people being fat, you might hurt someone's feelings.
Mom: **blink blink (hiding face to keep from laughing out loud)**
Note to self: must remember to have a talk with Tater later

Doodle Pad Issues
Seems like traveling with two boys and two doodle pads will continue to be a source of blog fodder...
This time I decided to call AWTM since she is back and see if all is well in her life of insanity and I had not heard from her in weeks...
From the back of the car I hear Tater...
Tater: "Mom, take a look at this picture"
Mom: "What is it?"
Tater: "It's you with a pe-nis!!"
Tater/Tot: Laughing out loud
Mom: "Sigh"
I hate to say it but you could barely see the stick figure because the size of the pe-nis. Guess this size thing starts at an early age.

Pastor's Business Card
A new pastor was visiting in the homes of his parishioners. At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. Therefore, he took out a business card and wrote "Revelation 3:20" on the back of it and stuck it in the door.
When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his card had been returned. Added to it was this cryptic message, "Genesis 3:10."
Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of laughter. Revelation 3:20 begins "Behold, I stand at the door and knock." Genesis 3:10 reads, "I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid for I was naked."

Easter Egg Hunt
We went to the community church's Easter Egg hunt. They always have 1000s of eggs and the kids love it. This year my kids got divided between two areas. Tot went to the 'hay stack' for 0 to 3 year olds, while Tater went to hunt around the Pastor's house for the 4 to 6 year olds.
While waiting to get into the Pastor's yard, Tater posed as a Jedi Knight:
= = =
Yep, they just laid most of the eggs in the yard. A few were up in bushes but not many!
= = = =
= = = =
Tot was still egg hunting when we got through. For some reason there was not that many 0 to 3 year olds this year... He got a bag full of eggs!
= = = =
In fact, picking up eggs got so boring, the slide looked much more interesting!
Fun was had by all. Definitely more eggs than what was at home! ;-)

Happy Easter
Yep, I'm a Christian and I still tell my kids there is an Easter Bunny. It has worked wonders on keeping them a little nicer this week. ;-) Yes, I have also explained about Jesus and the meaning... for what a 4 year old and a 3 year old can take in and digest. If they ask about the Easter Bunny, I will tell them the truth but until then....
I will not be posting again until Monday. Lots to do this weekend. Including coming up with a post to wish my Hubby a happy Anniversary. Yep, it is on Sunday. Still not posting until Monday unless there is suddenly a lot of time on my hands (NOT going to happen!).
Enjoy your weekend, and I will be enjoying mine as well.

ASUS web site compromised
We have ASUS equipment and for the life of me I can't remember when the last time I went to visit that web site. Hope all my firewalls, virus and stuff is working.
Go Here to read about it.

Over 100?
Tater and I were talking about age. How old Happy dog was, how old he was, how old I was. I told him I was 42 years old... and he responded with... "Wow that's over a hundred". Yaa, we need to work on his counting skills. ;-)
Tot's View on Life
Tot was walking around with this camera this last week. Here are a few pictures ... shows his point of view:

Took me a couple of seconds to realize this was a reflection in his mirror. That is his face to the left and me to the right. I'm installing tiebacks for his curtains.

One night he asked me to use his camera to take his picture. He had my scrunchy in his hair...
