LOL for Saturday Morning

But first--- CONGRATS to Lauren who not only made straight A's on her first high school six weeks report card, but also just made 1st band for concert season!!!!!! WOOOOO!!
So. Earlier this week, Lauren wrote a bio of my mom for Spanish. She wanted to say that Grandma won an award- Homemaker of the Year- from the Young Homemakers Association, a group in which she was quite active when I was little. Like South Austin Mothers Club, but with cooking and cleaning seminars thrown in.
So I was on the laptop at the time and I looked up "homemaker" online for her. It said this:
ama (f) de la casa
which I erroneously read as simply "ama."
She writes "ama del año" and moves on. In a few minutes, she says she doesn't think that is correct. She gets on the computer to look up "ama del año" to check the translation, only she types "ama del ano" because she doesn't know how to do the ñ.
It returns------ "loves the anus."
We giggled about that for days! Incidentally, Mom would have thought this story was freakin' hilarious. :)
So, for those of you who haven't advanced beyond The One Semester of Spanish Spanish Love Song, the correct translation of Homemaker of the Year is "ama de la casa del año."
