How was your Easter weekend? Any highlights or traditions you enjoyed this year?

I made a really delicious cheesecake for the first time. I had no idea it'd be so easy to make.

I worked, so spent the morning getting poked by a hyperactive child alternating between singing and spewing streamer brainrot while I tried to help them with their math homework. I was going to get off early but ended up staying late. (The adults I help tend to not scream “skibidi toilet” at me to avoid having to do algebra, so it’s not bad work at all.)

When I got home I celebrated the other holiday by taking a fat edible, painting and eating a box of Kind bars while listening to Star Wars canon discussion.

Worst weekend to have a stomach flu..

Cooked lunch for the whole family-in-law. I did carnitas (plus a chicken version), tomatillo salsa, red coleslaw, guacamole, shredded lettuce, a sort of California style taco sauce, black refried beans, and served both soft tortillas and hard taco shells.

We all ate far too much and then the kids started on the chocolate. Just like Zombie Jesus would have wanted.

very little sleep, maybe bcs of the good old bbq over the holy easter fire at 5 in the morning

Working from Friday till Monday, it’s quite the tradition tho as it is cool to be working the ops room at that time. Not much to do and plenty of cash to make as it counts as 3 Sundays (Friday and Monday are bank holidays, Sunday is well… a Sunday)

Visited New Orleans for the first time. Fun experience. I preferred the jazz of Frenchmen St. vs. the variety of Bourbon St.

We went to Mardi Gras World where they build some of the floats. Cool to see that stuff up close.

I'm Christian and Easter means a lot to me, and we just had such good Good Friday and Easter Sunday services. It really is lovely.

The tradition of JD Vance killing the Pope is always interesting. Strange tradition, but catholics are a strange bunch.

Note that I am certainly not saying notorious couch fucker JD Vance killed the Pope, I am sure it is coincidence that he was the last person to meet with him before he died in flagrante with a sectional

I worked extra hours because work had been insanely busy. My supervisor decided to give me a lecture about some incredibly minor thing I did wrong so that was fun when I already was overworked. She loves picking at everyone like that. Then the following day I ran 11 miles which is the farthest I ever ran. But otherwise I was just at home alone.
