30 March 2010 By Jane 3 In Faves, Videos

MIA, June Cleaver and I end the night by riding the bull! Yes, by that time we were ready to take the plunge and ride that large mechanical piece of hide. After watching several people fall off and hearing everyone go “OHHH!!!”, we did our best to try not to fall off. So, here you [...]

Kwik Kwote: Dude at the Country Bar. Does a fat baby’s fart stink?

30 March 2010 By Jane 0 In Random Stuff

I totally forgot about a particular conversation that totally threw me off and gave me a damn good chuckle. DUDE 1: “Does a fat baby’s fart stink?” Me & my girls: “Umm…what?” (We’re all looking at eachother confused.) DUDE 1: “Does a FAT baby’s fart stink?” Me & my girls: “Uhhh….yeah…” DUDE 2: “Well of [...]

Taking my Aussie Cousin for the full COUNTRY experience.

29 March 2010 By Jane 1 In Random Stuff

It came to me at the last minute that my cousin from Australia, MIA, needs the FULL COUNTRY EXPERIENCE before she heads on to her next destination…May-hee-Co. Yes, Mexico. Now going country line dancing isn’t exactly my usual scene but I’ve been before…albeit about 15 years ago but I’m no newbie and actually, I’ve always [...]

Spending time with family makes for a slacker blogger.

26 March 2010 By Jane 0 In Random Stuff

I know I’ve been slacking on the blogs. Sorry, I’m crazy busy with family but will resume next week! Sometimes, instead of just writing about everything, I gots to enjoy life too! -Jane, Enjoying time with family.

Speaking of CRACK…

Queen Latifa in all her GLORY. Queenie is not going to be happy with me. Thank goodness she’s not technically inclined and doesn’t navigate to my blog. Crack runs in the family. -Jane, Niece to Cracked-up Queenie.

Stomachs are hurting BIG TIME but Louise and I refuse to do #2 in public.

By Jane on June 22, 2010

After Louise’s shoot is done, we are heading home…it’s two hours remember? We had just been on the road for about half an hour when my stomach started hurting and starts to gurgle. You know the kind where you’re like “Hmmmm…not good.” It’s the kind of gurgle that one gets when THE RUNS (A.k.a. Diarhea) is [...]

Jane and Dick: Part-time actors/models.

By Jane on October 13, 2009

Remember I mentioned that Dick and I do some acting and modeling on the side? Well, we almost never get to see the work nor do we hardly receive copies of our work. Occasionally, friends will see our commercials and mention it to us but since we hardly watch TV, we almost never see the [...]

Thelma tortures Benz.

By Jane on July 12, 2011

Thelma, being almost 10 and anti-pink/anti-girly, no longer plays with her Build-a-Bear. Well, that is, until recently, she discovered that the same clothes may fit her unsuspecting little brother. Little Benz sitting innocently and happily. Now look at him. He’s horrified. “Why sissy, why?!?!?” Not a happy camper. He no likey-likey. Then the other day, [...]

Jane’s Maternity Wear: Not ready to wear Maternity clothes? Get a belly band!

By Jane on January 23, 2011

I’m about five months along now and am trying to squeeze into the last bit of regular clothes that I can. Depending on the angle, and if I’ve just eaten or not, my bump isn’t that huge yet. So, in order to wear non-maternity clothes, I’m looking through my closet for shirts that fit bigger [...]

Healthy Lunch: Tuna Fish Sandwiches.

By Jane on August 29, 2010

We love tuna fish at our house. Tuna is a great source for Omega 3s and aside, from the mayo, it’s pretty healthy…even then, you can use LESS mayo. Remember how I like to make the Tuna Sushi for the girls? They also like tuna fish sandwiches, where I substitute regular mayo for the Japanese [...]

Sleepover time. Dark chocolate fudge mini-brownies included.

By Jane on June 13, 2010

Thelma starts to feel better after resting most of the day and assures me she feeling fine and wants to see her friends. Of course, I guess when it involves seeing friends, they always say they are “okay”. However, she DID actually look better. Maybe it was just a stomach bug after all. The girl’s [...]

Giving our guests the bike tour: Movies, Starbucks, Greenway.

By Jane on March 23, 2011

The weather was perfect for biking so we decided to give our guests the bike tour, as we do with many of our guests. Like when Lucy went with Oscar, or when I went biking in my 4-inch heels, or when we went with the cousins around the suburbs or to get some burgers. Luckily, with [...]

We’re on our way to LaLa Land!!

By Jane on December 11, 2009

We’re off to Los Angeles, California, otherwise known as Lala Land. We’re super excited to see my sister, Lucy Lu and Dick’s sister’s family and his Mom for the Holidays. We get through security after having basically stripped down. It’s so ridiculous that we have to take off shoes.

Biking to Five Guys for some burgers.

By Jane on October 13, 2010

Another beautiful day and we are going to SEIZE it! Actually, we’re hungry and decided to bike out back to our fave burger joint, FIVE GUYS burgers. We get sidetracked for a second when the girls decide they want to go inside the pet store to see if there are any puppies. Sorry, no puppies [...]

I suppose if I were getting ready to step in shit, you’d let me.

By Jane on April 3, 2012

It’s 4:30am and Dick and I had just gone to bed around 2:30am. Benz ends up waking up crying for milk, so you can only imagine how tired I am. But there’s no more milk so he needs a refill. So, I look over and see that Dick is not going to move, even though [...]

Great Garage Sale Finds.

By Jane on October 18, 2009

I love going to garage sales when I can find the time. It’s true. One man’s junk is another man’s treasure. To me, if I can find something I love and need cheaper than if I were to buy it new, it’s even more valuable! It just so happens that Fanny Mae’s neighbor is having [...]

The girls and I love arts and crafts. My cousin brought over a Disney Princess coloring book for the girls (Thanks sweetie!) and we decided that’s what we were going to do today. I LOVE LOVE LOVE to color. It’s so relaxing and meditational…one of my absolutely favorite things to do as a kid (and [...]
