If you’re looking for something healthy to eat, then look no more. Everything below is cooked in the oven (minus the salad) so it’s not FRIED. Here is my recipe and directions for making Steelhead Trout, sweet potato fries accompanied with a salad and brown rice. Remember, I do not include amounts as I do [...]

Office Depot has Toothbrushes???
By Jane on January 9, 2010
We have to stop at Office Depot because Lucy needs a converter for her camera memory cards. She also needs a toothbrush but doesn’t want to make multiple stops so she thinks she can get both at the Office Depot I tell her NO WAY does the Office Depot carry toothbrushes. We then make a [...]

Thelma: Definitely a Daddy’s girl.
By Jane on July 5, 2010
Thelma is the ultimate Daddy’s girl. She worships her sweet daddy. I love and am super thankful that they have such a wonderful father. He definitely fills in all the voids where I’m lacking. Always patient and playful with the kids. They adore him. (Don’t be letting this get to your head honey.) -Jane, Wife [...]

We drove by the Korean Restaurant on the way thru Korean town. Lucy and I found the name of the restaurant amusing. I know, we’re silly and stupid. Whatever.

Thelma and Louise treat Ducky and Monk like their own kids, changing their clothes, feeding them…taking them everywhere we go. If we have to leave them at home, the girls always sweetly explain to Ducky and Monk why they aren’t allowed to come with us. Today, the girls decided to homeschool their own “kids”.

Flying Southwest Back to Metropolis: Going back home after a month.
By Jane on January 11, 2010
It’s been a month that we’ve been in LA. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed myself. It’s the first time EVER that I’ve never spent Christmas with my parents but it’s also the first time EVER that I’ve spent Christmas in such warm, lovely weather. Los Angeles is crazy but I really will miss their weather. I had [...]

The boys ADORE their Uncle DICK. Here they are hanging out with Dick as he is doing some exercises and working out. I catch a glimpse and stick around for the view to take pictures.

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, [...]

Sushi date with our girls at a more “traditional” Japanese restaurant.
By Jane on January 17, 2012
With Benz being a baby and requiring a lot of attention, we decided the girls too need some alone time with their parents. Until Benz, it was just the four of us for the longest time so Dick and I took the girls out to dinner one Friday night and left Benz home with my [...]

Fanny Mae found a $5 dollar bill laying on a table. I’ve seen this same five dollar bill laying around as well and was contemplating taking it if I saw it laying there much longer. Well, Fanny Mae beat me to it. But as soon as Fanny Mae was about to pocket it, Louise now [...]

If you have not met Monk, you’re about to now. Dick gave Monk to Thelma a couple of years ago for Christmas. Bought from Justice Girls, she came hugging one of those comfy matching monkey flannel blankets. Monk is sassy and is one of the most traveled Monkey stuffed animals I know because Thelma just [...]

Dick locks the keys in the Caddie, while it’s still running!
By Jane on January 14, 2011
The other day we were going to the grocery store and so since it was cold, Dick decided to warm up the car for a bit first. It is always a good idea to warm up your car before you take off but especially in the winter. I’ve always hated having to wait to warm [...]

Jane’s Teenage Diet & Exercise Plan. LOL
By Jane on February 25, 2010
Another great find in my vintage GREEN INDEX CARD HOLDER. Like many teenagers these days, body image was important and I was always concerned with my weight (which lead to my eventual bout with Bulimia). Apparently, when I was a teenager, I thought this is all it would take to lose weight. The bulk of [...]

A little while back, I stopped using lotions. Any kind of lotions…for the hands, body, face, suntan/block lotions. I just don’t use them anymore. Why? Well, it started years ago when I was reading that book that book, Natural Cures by Kevin Trudeau. And actually, that book is not really that great of a book, but the one [...]

My Benz, a player? Queenie comes visits Benz and makes a prediction.
By Jane on September 23, 2011
Look who else is visiting me Labor Day Weekend…Queenie!!! You remember my lovely (and crazy) Aunt from Toronto…Queen Latifa. I love Queenie dearly and one of the reasons I love her most is her bluntness. Remember her words of wisdom when she was in Vietnam with my parents and sister over Christmas? Well, while she was here, [...]

Pier 1 Fun Lucy and Fanny Mae.
By Jane on September 16, 2010
I love Pier 1. I love all the accessories there. Here are some pics of us browsing around. Comfy Oscar? I would be too! Blinged out EYELASH CURLERS! Really??? I used to use eyelash curlers but I’m so afraid I’m going to rip them ALL out that I only wear mascara now. Plus they curl [...]

Simple, quick snack for the Lazy Parent: Bread, oil & vinegar.
By Jane on February 15, 2011
If you’re looking for an easy quick snack for the kids? How about some bread, oil and vinegar? Just toast up your favorite whole grain bread (baguette’s are great too!). On a separate plate, put Extra Virgin Olive Oil, your favorite Balsamic Vinegar, some salt and pepper and you’re good to go! I love this [...]

Jane: TuTu-wearing Ballet Dancer
By Jane on November 17, 2009
Louise is taking ballet. I think she likes it because she’s taking it without Thelma so it gives her a sense of identity and individualism. This week at the studio we go to is “Mother-Daughter” dance week. Louise has been looking forward to this since she knew they were having it. So, I put on [...]

Remember how I told you I fall asleep easily? (No? Click HERE.) Yet another movie that I’ve only seen the first half of. Victim to falling asleep while watching a movie at home…again. When I’m physically at the movie theater I can usually stay awake. I’ve only fallen asleep during 2-3 of those. Anyone else [...]

KWICK KWOTE: Let’s Plant Some Flowers and Drink Some Wine
By Jane on April 4, 2010
Besides using the chalkboard paint in the girls room, I also used it on our pantry door…an ugly white eyesore. Originally when I thought to use the chalkboard paint, it was intended for this door. I wanted to be able to write grocery lists, our favorite wines list, maybe even homeschool while I’m cooking, writing [...]

Tryin on clothes at Kohls, boobie cleavage, and blockage in customer service.
By Jane on June 7, 2010
Lucy Lu, my dear sister is in town to visit. Good thing because I was all depressed about J Lo, Will and Carlton leaving us. Of course, I’ll be sad again when Lucy leaves but whatever, can’t think about that now. So, we go to Kohl’s because I need to return some swimming goggles that I [...]
