10 January 2010 By Jane 2 In Music to My Ears, My Big Fat Persian Family, Videos
Dick, Mamma F and J Lo seem to have no problems finding celebrities. They run into a Persian celebrity at a local Persian supermarket in Woodland Hills. His name is Sattar and he is one of the most famous traditional Persian singers out there.
Sattar has a very soft, mellow and soothing voice. Man douste daram. (Which is Farsi for “I like” – Remember I took Persian for four semesters in college.) This is one of his newer songs, Salam. Very nice.

Potential blood clot causes THIRD BALL.
By Jane on August 17, 2010
Dick’s “member” has now ceased swelling and is looking more normal. Except, there is now a THIRD ball. Jes, a turd ball! (That was for my dear sis. She can appreciate the humor in it.) After doing a lot of research online, Dick thinks it could be a blood clot. My entire family now knows [...]

Tooth Fairy makes multiple stops???
By Jane on August 7, 2010
Louise asked me the other day… “Mommy, does the Tooth Fairy really exist or is it just you and daddy sticking money under my pillow.” Gasp! Like the SANTA question, I didn’t know how to respond so I did the same thing when asked about Santa. “Do YOU think the Tooth Fairy is real?” “Well, I [...]

With having had a new baby, I decided we would take it easy over the summer and so only one sport…SWIMMING. And although last year was our first year on the swim team, we missed quite a few practices due to the burn that Thelma got but we also took time off to go to [...]

Having major computer malfunctions. Overload of too many pictures.

Mood Today: I’m dying! My Mac is locking up on me even though I have 88G left of my 411G hard drive. The bulk of memory being my pictures, video and music. Not only do I have another TERRABYTE of memory in a separate hard drive full of only videos and pictures, I also have [...]

Happy Halloween!! You want Sponge Bob on our Pumpkin???
By Jane on October 31, 2009
Remember when we went to the Mayfield Corn Maze? Well, I picked up a good size pumpkin there and it’s been sitting there until well…now. Thelma, Louise and I finally decided that we would carve the pumpkin. A bit last minute but better than never. “Kiss my baby stomach!” I’ve carved a pumpkin maybe one [...]
Honey, I wanna be a desperate housewife!

I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything. I’m a blogging LOSER these days and APOLOGIES! I can’t seem to find the time or energy to blog these days. (That being said, I’m so appreciative that our loyal Jane and Dick fans still visit our site daily and even read our old stories!) With [...]

Emergency cell phone rescue today paid off.
By Jane on December 1, 2009
I had the most unfortunate task of saving my cell phone today. Because I was wearing my PJs and had no pockets for my phone, I slid it down the back of my pants, so that my panties were holding it in place (Luckily, I don’t wear thongs). I know, great place right? Whatever. So, [...]

The girls enjoy the fall leaves.
By Jane on October 29, 2010
The girls are superexcited that there are enough leaves on the ground at CHEZ FANNY & FREDDIE (the grandparents) so they can make a HUGE pile and jump in it. Thelma is using some kind of rod to push the leaves together. I guess it’s working okay. Alright, we ready now??? RAH RAH [...]

What? It’s late. And I’m hungry. Whole wheat turkey w/mayo & tomato. Lays plain chips. Claussen pickles. Mmmm, that was good. I think that took me about 5 minutes to eat. Remember, I’m pregnant! Yes, I plan on using that line to the fullest extent! Of course, Dick will tell you this is not a [...]

I’m at my Lucy Lu’s house that she shares with her roommate, Martha Stewart, in West Hollywood. Lucy and Martha have been working hard to add some Christmas Spirit into their house and it looks fabulous. They hung the stockings. They decorated the tree. Looks so professional and perfect. They are wrapping gifts. Martha shows [...]

Late Night Kitchen Cleaning and Laundry Folding.
By Jane on November 25, 2009

No cars, no kids screaming “Mommy, Mommy”. I can get alot done at night. 12:30 AM KITCHEN CLEANING. It’s 12:30 AM and [...]

Mountain of Laundry = Housework = Insanity.
By Jane on August 28, 2010
I’m not sure how it got to this point…well, yes I do. I just haven’t done it. Folded them that is. They’re clean. I dislike doing laundry very much. And, I have no qualms about sending my family out in public in wrinkled clothes. I may be anal about other things…laundry is not one of [...]

I have been DUPED!! So this is what crack is like.

I recently ran out of my favorite mushroom seasoning that is an MSG substitute. Although MSG makes everything takes SUPER yummy, it’s been linked to cause cancer and is not good for you. I love this mushroom seasoning and put it in almost everything. I was so excited when I found this mushroom seasoning because [...]

No, I’m trying to insult a slightly overweight female (not that there’s anything wrong with that-being overweight that is). I’m talking about my son! Benz was a baby chicken this year, a costume that Louise wore when she was two. FLASHBACK TO HALLOWEEN 2004 Look at my sweet Louise, who is only 2.5 here. And my beautiful Thelma, [...]
