Louise has been craving my turkey burgers since we haven’t had them in a while. It’s been too cold to grill so I’m just going to sear them on my stovetop. INGREDIENTS FOR THE BURGER: Ground turkey, buns, onion.

Having major computer malfunctions. Overload of too many pictures.
By Jane on October 21, 2010
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 [...]

We’re reviewing how to make Pillsbury Mini-Brownies from the box.
By Jane on February 6, 2010
I cook but I don’t bake that much. When I do, I use the pre-made or pre-mixed kind – I know, not very healthy. I decided to treat my girls to some brownies. We see a new Pillsbury brownie mix that makes mini-brownies and it comes with 2 trays! Louise is loving helping me in [...]

Early Maternity Wear: Sporty Maternity and layering clothes at 4 months.
By Jane on December 29, 2010
Being around 4 months pregnant, I kinda still fit in some of my clothes. Kinda. Being in that in-between stage where one does not yet look fully pregnant and is thicker in the middle than usual makes it difficult to find clothes to wear. I want to be able to use whatever clothes I have [...]

Your daily Benz: Benz and Piggy.
By Jane on June 22, 2011
Benz’s head often falls to the side, making him look so cockeyed. So, I looked around to see what I could put there to straighten him up a bit. Piggy fit quite nicely. Benz seemed to think so too…look how he’s holding on to it’s feet. -Jane, Mommy to Sweet Benz.

Girls, if you want new Converses and Heely’s, you’re gonna have to save yo money!
By Jane on October 19, 2011
Money doesn’t fall from trees (although it would be really nice if it did) and I get super annoyed when my girls run up to me and ask me to buy this and that and many times, without even looking at the price! My first response to their request is always, “Did you look at [...]

Smells like poo. Sh**! Literally!
By Jane on December 29, 2010
On our way home from picking up the Futon Mattresses, we’re in the car and I smell something weird. “I smell something.” Dick brushes it off as my sensitivity to smells from being pregnant. “I don’t smell anything. You’re nose is just sensitive right now.” We drive a little further. “Seriously, I smell something. Smells [...]

Lucy and Martha want some Christmas pictures. CUTE & CHEESY is the theme.
By Jane on December 17, 2009
Friends and Roommates Lucy Lu and Martha Stewart request that I take some pictures of them so they can send out Christmas cards of their “family”. Their family consists of them and their dogs, both of which are the same breed, Brussels Griffon, only they quite differ in size. Lucy tells me that her and Martha [...]

Thelma and Louise eating worms?
By Jane on November 11, 2010
Whenever I am lazy to cook and need something fast, I always check to see what kind of INSTANT RAMEN I have in my pantry. Today, we have Chapagetti. It’s a non-soupy, instant noodle that tastes like a black bean sauce. Very yummy! Image by www.homecookingdiary.com. (I threw away the packaging before I remembered to [...]

Mother’s Day Start: Breakfast at McD’s and a Flat Tire.
By Jane on May 12, 2011
Mother’s Day started off with breakfast with my girls. Mommy was craving some McDonald’s…which would come as a surprise to those who know me but pregnancy just brings about the incredible need for JUNK! Dick was still in bed so I took the girls and we headed to McD’s for breakfast. (In Dick’s defense, he [...]

From SKIRT to DRESS: If you don’t like it, then you shoulda put a belt on it!
By Jane on November 10, 2010
As we sort through the clothes to keep during our CLOSET CLEANSING, I come across a skirt that the girls say they DON’T WANT anymore. I always have to sort through the stuff they dub “DON’T WANT/FIT” because even when they say they don’t like something, I know better…you know, cause I’m Mom! Funny thing [...]

Jane’s Maternity Wear: I recycle Lucy’s black shirt and match it up with some Gap Maternity Jeans.
By Jane on January 3, 2011
Lucy has a lot of old clothes at my parents house that just sits there…day after day, month after month, year after year. So I’ll often go through it to see what I can use since she isn’t! Why waste I say. Recycle! Take this black shirt for instance. Actually, Louise found this shirt in [...]

Louise cashes in on her two teeth.
By Jane on August 23, 2010
Now that another 2 teeth have given way, it was time for Louise to cash in. However, she first wanted to wait for Eminem, Taylor and Auntie Lucy (who was coming the following weekend) to get here so she could show them off. Louise put each tooth in a box and after having made sure [...]

We’ve finished all our work and it’s time to head back home. Time to load up the van again. Would u believe that Dick was plagued so badly with the stomach virus that he’s having problems walking? Apparently it really did a number on his ass (A condition that we have dubbed in our family [...]

A Hike Thru Runyon Canyon in Flip Flops
By Jane on December 20, 2009
Lucy doesn’t live too far from Runyon Canyon. It’s a fantastic place to go hiking to see some spectacular views of LA. It’s also a popular spot for celebrities to go walk their dogs and stay fit. We get started and walk up this hill. Come to find out, that’s not the starting point.

Swine Flu: To Vaccinate or Not to Vaccinate?
By Jane on October 1, 2009
I just read that a new H1N1 flu vaccination is on its way to the public so am I in high anticipation like everyone else? I don’t know too many people who are excited to be getting a sharp needle in your arm, or leg, or anywhere else! Lucky for me that I don’t like [...]

Enjoying the warm weather: A pier and simple park with a great lake view.
By Jane on February 23, 2010
Since the weather was around 60F and sunny, we took full advantage. Along with my parents Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac (not pictured because they’re walking laps around the track), we head with the kids and the dogs to a simple yet beautiful park and a most fabulous PIER. I love piers!

LANDLORDS BEWARE: Craigslist scam targeting landlords.
By Jane on August 11, 2010
I get SO MANY of these e-mails where someone PRETENDS to be interested in an ad that I’ve posted to rent one of my properties. I’ve compiled a list of typical things a scammer will tell you in their email. CRAIGSLIST RENTAL SCAM CHECKLIST: Usually, they are some kind of FOREIGNER who writes in somewhat [...]

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 [...]
