I’m not sayin’ who, but with hipster jeans and low riders these days, girls be showin’ their asses just as much as da boyz.
Showing some occasional crack still beats having your jeans up to your boobs.
Snot me, iz someBUTTy else.

Adult Halloween Time: We’re going out!!
By Jane on November 2, 2009
So Dick and I haven’t been out in months. We’re just too busy and we enjoy time at home with our girls or playing ping pong. This year, Halloween fell on a Saturday so I was thinking of having a Halloween party at my house. But, like I said, we’re super busy and I just [...]

Trung Thu- Vietnamese Fall Moon Festival
By Jane on September 20, 2010
Every year, there is a Vietnamese tradition for the family where the kids get together and light up candle lanterns close to the full moon in celebration of the harvest. It’s called the Mid-Fall Moon Festival, which I thought was odd because officially, Fall isn’t even here yet. But, whatevs…Our community had one over the [...]

My $12 Goodwill Dress. This summer dress has been WINTERIZED.
By Jane on February 22, 2010
As I posted the other day, I recently found a really nice dress at Goodwill. The dress was still brand new, with tags with an original price tag of $72. However, I get it for the fabulous price of $12! Considering it’s winter and this is more of a summer dress, I was kinda bummed [...]

Some things run in the family… Guess who else has OCD and a feet picking problem? The Queen herself. See people? Socks don’t make a difference…unless they’re made of iron and have padlocks on them before you can take them off. But then, I guess it would be difficult to find shoes to fit over these socks. And, of course, the [...]

So now that you know our plans to have a natural child birth, you’ll understand our thought process when it came time. As I mentioned, when I hit 36 weeks my OB started to talk to me about the possibility of induction, even though she knew I really wanted to have a natural child birth. [...]

Back in January, we married off my sister’s dog Oscar with my mom’s dog, Yuki. (Click HERE for the story.) The intent was so that they could legitimately have babies (even though Dick & I didn’t take this route at first). Lucy reminded me the other day that she was unsure this would actually happen [...]

Lowes has this great program for kids every other Saturday…all year round, where the kids can come build something. They hold a “workshop” where the kids can come and play carpenter for a day. It’s like a dream come true for me because if I haven’t mentioned it before, and Lucy is rolling her eyes [...]

Lucy and I look for the perfect short and fat Christmas tree.
By Jane on December 3, 2011
We usually do Christmas at my mom’s house so the Christmas tree goes over there. Every year, it’s Lucy and I who go shopping for the tree. Don’t let the picture fool you into thinking Lucy is taller than me…Lucy is sporting 3″ heeled boots. In actuality, she’s one inch SHORTER than me, even though [...]

Auntie and Niece…turban towel twins. Brusha, brusha, brusha!
By Jane on December 6, 2011
Lucy and Louise, after both just showered. Zay are turban towel tweenz! From when they were little girls, Thelma and Louise would always see Lucy and I with towels wrapped around our heads after a shower. But, when they were smaller, the towel would be too heavy for their little heads to hold. Their bobble [...]

She-Ra turns 25!!! I have the POWER!!!
By Jane on October 6, 2010
For those 80s babies like myself, I just came across an article about one of my favorite cartoons growing up. SHE-RA! She-ra was the female, kick-ass version of HE-MAN, who fought against evil, was a strong, intelligent female and I wanted to be her! Watching religiously daily and wanting to have the POWER, I would [...]

Jane back in the day: Gen Xer and 80s Fashionista.
By Jane on September 13, 2010
Perez had something on his site about Then and Now, so I thought I would dig up some old pictures from my less than stellar teenage years. Being a Gen Xer, it is definitely apparent I was a product of the 80s. Could my hair be any taller??? Oh and yes, that’s a perm I’m [...]

Winter is the season for oranges!! This is the best and sweetest time of the year to enjoy oranges either by just eating them or having fresh squeezed OJ! It takes some effort to get every last drop so I recruit my dear Dick. What else are his fabulous muscles for? Meanwhile, I make us [...]

Queenie Quote Update: Queenie responds to my blog about her.
By Jane on January 8, 2011
Upon reading the blog I just posted about her: “Why she do like that?” LOL. Yesterday. Queenie is like everyone’s GODMOTHER. People come to her for advice or many times, she just gives it. Quote yesterday, on people giving you shit: “Now you learn lesson for people give you shit.” And she don’t take SHIT from [...]

Trying to cool off my temper. Take the kids to a fantastic park walking distance from our house.
By Jane on June 17, 2010
After I show the house, the sun has gone down and the weather is tolerable. The girls and I decide to walk to the park. This is the only smile I’m going to be able to muster today and it’s only because I’m with the girls and Dick is not around! THE PARK Our house [...]

Your Daily Osho: Choose Nature. Don’t be a loser.
By Jane on January 28, 2011
EVERDAY OSHO: CHOOSE NATURE Wherever you find that society is in conflict with nature, choose nature – whatever the cost. You will never be a loser. The thinking up to now has been that the individual exists for the society, that the individual has to follow what the society dictates. The individual has to fit [...]

Thelma brings in some smoothies to my office while I was here working. I thought she had made me something to drink and was bringing it to me. How thoughtful! But, before she handed me one, she said… “WAIT.” Then, she proceeds to show me the sign. Being the creative entreprenuer that she is, she [...]

They’re from a company called Litte Miss Matched, where everything “matches” but is not exactly alike. See how the stripes are different colors on the hands? Aren’t they [...]

Seasonal Winter weight gain results in “Food Baby”.
By Jane on November 30, 2009
Yes, it’s that time of the year where my body decides it needs to pack on about ten more pounds (Hopefully that’s it!) in order to stay warm in the winter. Hibernation mode like the bears, ya know. Actually, it started last month…right around Halloween, surprise surprise. I realized this seasonal pattern a few years [...]

We take the kids to see the latest Karate Kid flick with Will Smith’s son, JADEN, and JACKIE CHAN. The girls have already see the originals and LOVED them. The latest rendition was actually decent and Jaden was surprisingly a very good actor! Of course, the storyline was completely predictable and almost exactly like the [...]

Hey, there are good and bad things about not having big hips. On the upside, you will never be pear-shaped, will have little legs, and wear smaller pants. On the downside, you may occasionally have a slight plumber’s crack.
That is definitely your bootay.
