A friend of mine sent me this forward and I found it amusing. Yes, it doesn’t take much to amuse me. This is a Chinese Eye Test. Can’t read it? Try pulling your eyes out to the sides, as if you were Chinese. It’s a good thing I have good vision. -Jane, 20/20 Vision Woman

My great aunt visits from France.
By Jane on August 13, 2010
My great aunt, MAGDA, from my dad’s side lives in South France and was visiting other family in the US so she decided to swing by Metropolis to come see us. The number of visitors we are having this year is insane! But, it’s the best kind of insanity…family! I’m so glad to see her [...]

How much do you really need to be rich?
By Jane on August 11, 2010
That was the title of the article I came across this article on the homepage of Yahoo. You probably saw it too if Yahoo is your homepage. Click HERE for the article if you have’t seen it. However, before reading the article, I already knew the answer. Yes, I’m Mz. Smarty-pants Jane. “Rich” is not [...]

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 [...]

Painting the girls room. We’re going TECHNO! Color #1.
By Jane on March 7, 2010
It seems that around this time every year, when it starts to warm up, I get this urge to paint. Yes, this Jane loves to paint. I’ve been wanting to do the girls room for a while. The last time, I just painted some polka dots all over it with leftover paint I had over [...]

Huge fluffy snowflakes hit Metropolis!
By Jane on January 6, 2011
Out of nowhere and unexpectedly, Metropolis was hit with a HUGE, FLUFFY snow. The girls were so excited since we missed the big snow last year. Snowflakes the size of half-dollar coins were falling down on us like drops from Heaven. Not a great picture but this is the view when you look up. It [...]

Been listening to my Pulp Fiction CD alot lately. Here’s one of my favorites that I like to sing along to, pretending that I’m a fabulous singer. No, I am not singing along in this video. Enjoy! Quentin sure does know how to pick the best songs for his soundtracks. So GROOVY! This Jane digs [...]

FASHION MADE EASY: A Black dress…or is it a shirt? One dress, three looks.
By Jane on February 24, 2010
I use dresses as shirts and big shirts as dresses often. This time, it’s actually a dress…a black one I bought in the Grungy Fashion District of Queen Street in Toronto. It’s funny because I bought it almost three years ago thinking I LOVED it but I didn’t wear it until two years later…when I [...]

Being a great parent is when you let kids be kids and let them bring out the kid in you. Even if it means you must don girly cupcakes & hearts underwear on your head. He is quite the Dad isn’t he? I don’t know too many men who would let their kids put underwear [...]

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 [...]

Right song + Wrong timing = Embarrassing Moment.
By Jane on November 25, 2009
June Cleaver and I became good friends when Thelma was in public school for Kindergarten. One of the few good things that came out of that. June and I connected right away being that June is also an exceptional artist, she’s groovy, down-to-earth and unpretentious…she’s not your typical “Mommy” and isn’t phased by some of [...]

Buying from local small businesses: Lemonade, Jerk Chicken, and Peaches.
By Jane on August 12, 2010
We try to BUY LOCAL more than we BUY ORGANIC. Organic is great too if it’s local and fresh but at the grocery store, if you have to choose between local and organic, go LOCAL. Surprised? Well, most of the organic produce is traveling from across the country (or world) to get to your grocery [...]

I was first introduced to Bonsai’s from watching Mr. Miagi pruning them on the Karate Kid. When I actually saw them in person, I just LOVED them. I have a love for trees and tree shapes as it is but a miniature version is just GORGEOUS!! It so happened that the annual Bonsai show was going [...]

My dear sister, Lucy Lu, introduces me to OXYCLEAN and so I use to to get the TEA STAINS off my glasses. Another reason why I love Oxyclean? This is my kitchen hood vent, which was WAY OVERDUE for a replacement. However, given it’s unique, custom size, I’m too lazy to go look for one. [...]

We’re on our way to LaLa Land!!
By Jane on December 11, 2009
We’re off to Los Angeles, California, otherwise known as Lala Land. We’re super excited to see my sister, Lucy Lu and Dick’s sister’s family and his Mom for the Holidays. We get through security after having basically stripped down. It’s so ridiculous that we have to take off shoes.

With my pregnancy amnesia and mush for brains, renting from RED BOX does not save THIS family any money. And, to be honest, I can’t really blame it on being pregnant. $1 per day sounds great until you’ve had it a few days and I like that I can return it to ANY Red Box. [...]

Since I was thinking of MIA because she had sent my kids that great Mind Blowing Science Kit, I was going through my old posts of her and realized, we did quite a bit this summer! 1. We hung out with the fam and I took you to the Country Bar. 2. You left to travel [...]
