I was going thru my old room at my mom’s house. She’s your typical Vietnamese woman that keeps everything. Although I’m not usually a fan of hoarding, there are some things that bring back so many memories and give me a good laugh. So, I think this might be a series of posts as there [...]

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 [...]

Happy Birthday to my sweet girl.
By Jane on December 22, 2010
As you can see, we’ve been through quite a few hairstyles. I can’t believe how much she’s grown. Almost makes me sad to see how fast time flies. I love you so much sweet thang. -Jane, Mother of Lovely Thelma.

The family gets paid to spend a day on the lake for a Bayliner Boat shoot.
By Jane on August 11, 2011
Our family was fortunate enough to be selected to do a shoot for Bayliner, the boat company. I guess they liked our family’s International look. Except, poor Benz is too small to be on a boat so I had to make arrangements for him to stay home. Luckily, as I may have mentioned, my parents [...]

Jihad Jane? Definitely a case of mistaken identity here.
By Jane on March 10, 2010
Apparently this JANE was conspiring with terrorists and was hired to kill that controversial Swedish political cartoonist Lars Vilks. JIHAD JANE. I don’t know anything about him or her but reading “Jihad Jane” on CNN.com completely caught my eye. Click HERE for the full story. -Jane, Not Jihad Jane.

Life is extremely busy for us these days. I’m not sure if it’s good or bad but…it is what it is and we’re rolling with the punches. There’s never a dull moment, at least not for me. The girls may disagree but, whatever, kids are always complaining about being bored. Well, today was definitely not [...]

Salmon with Dirty Brown Rice: Yeah I’m grocery shopping in my PJ’s.
By Jane on January 15, 2010
Since I was already in my pajamas for pajama day at our homeschool co-op, I decided that I was SO COMFORTABLE that I did not want to change out of my outfit, even though I had some grocery shopping to do later that day. Yes, it’s FREAKIN’ COLD! Ok, so I did get a few [...]

Cali’s weather is unpredictable where it could be hot one day and cold the next so we have to pack an assortment of everything. Winter clothes are big and take up alot of space you know. (Is it officially winter yet?)

I just can’t seem to get away from Dog Sh**!
By Jane on January 18, 2011
While my parents are gone for three weeks, we’re taking care of the dogs for them and it’s driving me NUTS! I grew up having dogs but now, I’m no longer a fan of being an OWNER. I’ve turned into one of those people who like “other people’s dogs” like how some people like “other [...]
Jane: Anal Corn on the Cob Eater.
By Jane on June 6, 2011
You may remember me mentioning my two loves and must haves to survive in the summer…watermelon and corn on the cob. I LOVE LOVE LOVE corn on the cob and could easily eat like 4-5 (or possibly more) in a day! Now corn is one of those things I do NOT like to share with [...]
I’m Going to Finish My Peach First
By Jane on August 29, 2009
DICK is driving me around METROPOLIS for a photo project I’m doing with www.buyusafirst.org. John Gibson, CEO of United Intelligence Corporation, is an entrepreneur who has several business of his own and also works as a consultant for women entrepreneurs. John is also my husband’s, mother’s, cousin’s husband. I meet John for the first time in California a month ago and immediately I like him. He’s Super-intelligent, seems to take everything in stride and is always smiling. Doesn’t he look kinda like Bill Gates?

Dick is in love…with an Antique 1968 Mercedes 250s.
By Jane on December 1, 2010
Dick spots the car of his dreams while we were driving around. It was a beautiful antique 1968 Mercedes 250S. This car is in MINT condition and has only 36,000 miles on it. Unbelieveable! Look at the old school knob to adjust the seat. I’m not sure what the leather looks like underneath the fuzzy blue [...]

How to get a perfect soft boiled egg.
By Jane on October 13, 2010
If you are not a fan of hard boiled eggs, you should try soft boiled eggs. A soft boiled egg is an egg that is boiled only to the point that the white is fully cooked but the yolk is still liquid and tasty. Over the weekend, on a fresh beautiful morning, I made Dick [...]

Biking out the bar was easy, it’s going home that is the challenge.
By Jane on May 27, 2010
AT WILD WINGS We finally made it to Wild Wings on the bikes and without any casualties. Yay. However, the ride home concerns me more than the ride to get here. One would think that one of the BEST benefits to biking is the health benefits. It’s not. While being HEALTHY is important and good, [...]

My girls built another “house” in my parent’s living room the other day. This is not uncommon if not a weekly thing. I love that my parents don’t have a house where they’re afraid to let the girls touch anything. They get to unleash their creativity here alot. Today, it’s a “house” that they plan [...]

It’s a very quiet and chill Christmas for us and we love it! Time to recuperate, regenerate and get ready for the NEW YEAR! We are so thankful for all that we have and all the blessings in our lives…most importantly FAMILY, HEALTH, and HAPPINESS. I’m glad to say there is nothing that I neither [...]

COOKING IDEAS BY JANE: Making Stuffed Cabbage Soup.
By Jane on March 18, 2010
I haven’t had or made stuffed cabbage soup in a long time so I decided to make it for the family the other day. You know how much this family loves soups.

It seems this last year we’ve had lots of visitors and when they visit, we usually chill on my back porch, play ping pong or go biking or all of the above. So, my latest visitor was my Cousin and his son, Dumbledore, who I call my cousin too because it’s so hard to remember [...]

G20 Summit “Peaceful Protests” at Queen Street.
By Jane on July 12, 2010
At the beginning of my trip in Toronto, all the news coverage was about the G20 and how Toronto has gone ALL OUT to secure their city and the multitude of World Leaders who are coming together for this Summit. The reason for the extensive security is because there were protests at the last G-summit [...]

Man, do I love watermelon. Oh, and being lazy to spit out seeds, I prefer seedless. I’m so excited that watermelon season has started! I pretty much live off watermelon in the summer. That and corn on the cob! Looks like I tried to stash one under my dress no? (Which you may recognize. [...]
