Lucy: Sous Chef. We’re making a Persian Chicken Spinach Dish.

18 December 2009 By Jane 2 In Cooking Jane, Lucy Lu

I’m hanging out with my dear sister at her place. She invited me over for dinner and would like for me to cook her some Persian food. I decide to make a Chicken Spinach dish (Aloo Esfinage only without Aloo). We’re all starving because it’s already dinner time and we’re just getting started. I declare [...]

Unique Christmas Cards

By Jane on December 24, 2010

I am one of those people who are really bad at sending stuff in the mail. For some reason it’s just super difficult for me to get to the post office…even when the lines aren’t incredibly long like the other day when I had to stand in line listening to the complainer guy. Unless necessary and [...]

Gifts for the girls from their private art teacher.

By Jane on December 10, 2009

My girls take Private Art Classes weekly from an extremely talented artist. Magda is a dear friend and we are so lucky to have her in our lives. She has taught the girls so much about art, all the technical stuff that I have forgotten.

Taking the Classroom Outside

By Jane on February 24, 2011

Recently, we’ve been having some amazing weather for February in Metropolis. Sunny, mid 60s and beautiful. So, we moved the classroom outside, cause you can do that when you homeschool. The girls just spread out a blanket and bring their assignments outside. I’m also there in the event there are questions. And, I’m getting the [...]

Edward on a Twilight cake?

By Jane on December 22, 2009

Next door to the place we had sushi was this cake shop. I don’t bake at all unless you count using Duncan Hines box cakes and Nestle Tollhouse Mini cookies. However, I wish I could make cakes like these.

West Hollywood’s local yogurt shop with a bit of flare.

By Jane on March 30, 2012

I definitely have frozen yogurt cravings when I’m pregnant so we stopped by one in West Hollywood off Santa Monica Blvd called the Yogurt Stop. And although it’s similar to your typical frozen yogurt shops these days, it’s got a bit of FLARE as well. How’s that for a logo? Pump it yourself. And top [...]

Lucy and I look for the perfect short and fat Christmas tree.

By Jane on December 3, 2011

We usually do Christmas at my mom’s house so the Christmas tree goes over there. Every year, it’s Lucy and I who go shopping for the tree. Don’t let the picture fool you into thinking Lucy is taller than me…Lucy is sporting 3″ heeled boots. In actuality, she’s one inch SHORTER than me, even though [...]

Unusable walkway NO MORE!

By Jane on November 22, 2009

My pathed walk-way leading up to my front door has been unusable since the end of summer. Remember my Fall Chrystanthamums that were so beautiful and took over the sidewalk? Well, they are no longer beautiful but instead are dry, brown and have since passed away…expired. That’s a nice way of putting it huh? Ex-pi–urd! [...]

Walking in the Winter Wonderland: Our Southeast Winter Storm.

By Jane on January 31, 2010

Our “winter storm” came. Only, it wasn’t really a storm. We get some snow but nothing like a foot or anything. I was hoping for at least 8 inches but alas, no. No matter, it’s BEAUTIFUL outside and we’re going for a walk. When you have snow and ice covering everything, it’s like a whole [...]

“Heat Wave” prompts chillin’ at Starbucks. And yes, size does matter.

By Jane on February 21, 2010

It’s warm for the first time in forever, it seems. So, what do we do? Well we head to Starbucks of course!

The Chalk Guy: Julian Beever and his AMAZING pavement drawings.

By Jane on November 12, 2009

I just got a forward from Dick’s cousin. He’s a dentist who has a lot of time to send a bunch of email forwards to us. LOL (J.K. We love you!) I never read any long forwards. I am A.D.D. and like I said, wordy stuff with no pictures will NOT capture my attention. Short, [...]

Dick braves riding the Greyhound. We need high speed rails in the US people!

By Jane on October 15, 2009

Dick has to go to Gotham City to pick up another car. He decides at the last minute to do this and so airfare is ridiculous. With no other options, he decides to brave the Greyhound. I am fearful because just last year, I read this horrible story about an innocent bus-riding young man who gets [...]

We’ve made up. Now for some Jacuzzi fun.

By Jane on June 18, 2010

Now that we’ve made amends, it’s back to Fun with Jane and Dick. Since Dick did finally cleaned the jacuzzi, We leave it cold so we can enjoy it given the crazy 90+F, sunny, hot and humid weather. This lighting is quite flattering. LOL. Trust me, there are stretch marks and flabbiness. You know I’m [...]

Biking Out to Starbucks with Lucy & Oscar

By Jane on November 28, 2009

We’re doing the biking Starbucks thing. This time though, we have an extra special guest. Oscar! Lucy is of course a special guest too but Oscar is the baby, so he gets more attention. Look how Hollywood Oscar is with his hoodie, purse, and basket.

Cali-style: Target, people, and cruising around in a Prius.

By Jane on March 17, 2012

Since we didn’t have a car seat for the baby, we decided to go get one as soon as possible. Prince Abubu was super gracious to let us borrow his Prius while we are in town. Los Angeles is the mecca for Prius’s and understandably so with the stop and go traffic. The console is [...]
