Hungry and lazy to make too much of a fuss over something to eat for lunch, I put together a quick Turkey wrap to eat. INGREDIENTS Basically, I just threw this together with stuff that happened to be in my fridge at the time. It includes, in order from bottom to top: A large whole [...]

By Jane on April 18, 2010
It never fails, whenever we are at Wal-Mart, the girls want to ride the Merry-Go-Round. This little thing that goes around and around and around… It seems to be never ending…and brings them so much joy. Not to mention, the vending machines are ALWAYS calling their name. Here’s a video below of all the excitement and fun.

Skeletoes, finger toe shoes…the new Crocs?
By Jane on July 23, 2011
The girls and I were shoe shopping for some sneakers for Thelma and flipflops for Louise and came across the new, trendy Skeletoes made by Fila. If you have not seen these things, they are like finger socks for your feet except they are shoes! I first came across these when I saw them on [...]

Warning Indian Chilli Peppers are HOT! Dick discovers the hard way.
By Jane on July 4, 2010
Dick loves to eat hot chilli peppers and tells me I’m not Vietnamese because I don’t and Vietnamese people eat quite spicy foods. He and my dad enjoy the small Thai peppers that when just taking a small pinch will make your lips burn like hell, a lingering hell. They tell me that you get [...]

No, it’s not one of Michael Jackson’s kids. It’s Thelma in a mask.
By Jane on November 4, 2009
This is a mask Lucy Lu gave me to wear for my Goth birthday party. Thelma is going to be using it for her costume for her skating competition coming up. She liked it so much she decided she was going to wear it out while we’re running errands.

The family goes to see Avatar. It does not disappoint!!
By Jane on March 3, 2010
I have been wanting to see Avatar long before it came out but haven’t been able to go see it until now. Of course, by now, it’s raked in a record $2.5 Billion worldwide and James Cameron will continue to rake in bazillions of dollars until long after he’s gone. I really didn’t know what [...]

Home Depot to get the platforms for our beds.
By Jane on December 31, 2010
First thing in the morning after Thelma opened her eyes was, can we go to Home Depot now? So, we skip breakfast and head out the door, despite snowy weather. The girls are determined to get their beds. Dick and I decided, who needs SLATS anyway. Why not just a flat platform, which provides better support anyway! [...]

Coming Clean…Vacuuming sucks. Literally and figuratively.
By Jane on October 7, 2009
Ok guys. I have to come clean…fo realz. I haven’t vacuumed in like two, MAYBE three, weeks. I have swept but not vacuumed. Typically, I like to vacuum weekly cause the house collects dust like crazy but this hardly happens…it’s more likely to occur when I have guests. I just avoid vacuuming like the plague. [...]

The family goes watch a ladies college-level volleyball game. TN vs Ole Miss!!
By Jane on October 26, 2011
After being annoyed that Dick tried to set blame of the flat tire on me, I was able to get over it so that we could still enjoy watching the Lady Vols play against Ole Miss. From what we hear, there is quite a rivalry between these two teams and so it should be an [...]

We get invited to a last minute doggie wedding. Yuki & Oscar’s!!
By Jane on January 25, 2010
I had this idea to let my Mom’s new Pekingese (Yuki) mate with Oscar because I thought they would make cute babies. Lucy is up for it but reminds me that it might be difficult since Oscar only has one ball. Yes, one ball. No matter, we’re going to give it a try. Apparently though, [...]

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. [...]

Guy banging on my door wants to cut down my beloved tree.
By Jane on February 8, 2010
Just had some loud ass guy bang on my door a million times like he wants to bust the door down. And, I hear him on the cell saying “yeah, i’m bangin on the door now”. Now if that don’t make a person paranoid. Listen, I don’t answer the door if I am not expecting [...]

Celebrity Sighting: Brigitte Nielson at The Abbey.
By Jane on January 10, 2010
Dick, Mamma F, J Lo and friends go out on Christmas to The Abbey, known as one of the best gay clubs and is down the street from where Lucy lives. I went the Abbey last time I was in LA and decided not to go out this time because I’m lazy, it’s cold and [...]

A clean kitchen and good wine is a must.
By Jane on October 12, 2009
Cooking when the kitchen is dirty is just not fun. I just emptied the dishwasher, put away more dirty dishes, cleaned off the counters, have my wine and NOW I’m ready to cook! Anyone else must start off with a clean slate before a new mess is made? -Jane, Must-be-Clean Cook

OMG!! Just found some of my childhood stuff: The Green Index Card Box.
By Jane on February 25, 2010
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 [...]

If you’re a fan of sweet potatos, you’ll love Baked Butternut Squash.
By Jane on February 21, 2011
It’s been a while since I did a recipe post. Sorry, they take a while to write so it’s hard to find the time. But, the other day I made some Crispy Flounder, Baked Butternut Squash and Potato Crusted Basmati Persian Rice for my family. I was going to put the entire recipes for all [...]

Texts from Vietnam: Already torturous getting everyone together.
By Jane on January 3, 2011
Texts that I have received from Lucy while she and the rest of my family are in Vietnam: Dec. 25, 2010 Already torturous getting everyone together. This cracks me up. This is like her second day in Vietnam. My aunt, Queen Latifa and my other aunt from Australia (w/husband) are there with Lucy. And, my [...]

Not a fan of laptops but starting to change my mind.
By Jane on August 29, 2010
At Starbucks again. The weather these days is just perfect. I bring the hubby’s tiny laptop so that I can kill two birds with one stone (Not that I would ever intentionally try to kill a bird. Yes, I did peg that one bird but that was an accident.) I’m not a fan of laptops. [...]
