I went to an art gallery exhibit opening the other day (Story to come out shortly after this one.). I’m still trying to stick to my daily goal of wearing something I haven’t worn in a long time. I got this shirt three-four years ago and I have only worn it two times…until now. I’m [...]

Jane refuses to be FORCED to pay the Smartphone data package and opts for a NON-SMART phone.
By Jane on March 14, 2011
So, I’ve had my LG phone for about 2 years now and I HATE it! The touch screen sucks and I fat finger and call random people all the time. Dick has been bugging me to get a new phone…imagine that! A husband who has to beg his wife to buy something new! Well, I [...]

Recipe – Persian Rice w/ Beef & Green Beans (Loobia Polow)
By Jane on September 11, 2009
Loobia (green bean) Polow (rice) is a SUPER-yummy Persian dish that combines fragrant Basmati rice with a green bean tomato stew infused with lots of great taste and flavor. I learned how to cook Persian food from my lovely Mother-in-Law. She is infamous in her family for being a fantastic cook and so to keep it [...]

Tis the season for fresh squeezed OJ!
By Jane on December 23, 2010
Winter is the season for oranges!! This is the best and sweetest time of the year to enjoy oranges either by just eating them or having fresh squeezed OJ! It takes some effort to get every last drop so I recruit my dear Dick. What else are his fabulous muscles for? Meanwhile, I make us [...]

I see one of my ads at a rest area, of all places.
By Jane on August 14, 2010
On our four-hour drive home from Gotham City, it was almost midnight and time for a potty break. We stop at the next rest area. It’s one we’ve been to many times. We do our thang and then Thelma wants to look around. She goes ahead of me into the next room that has all [...]

Dick combed Carlton’s hair down to be funny. Thelma and I both agree that he looks like the Thin Man from the Charlie’s Angels Movie. Carlton is four and a half (can’t forget the half or he gets upset) and SUPER PLAYFUL. Such a character.

“Mommy, why do we have to shop on eBay?”
By Jane on November 16, 2009
The other day, on our way somewhere (I can’t remember where. The pregnancy amnesia never seemed to go away.), Louise was hassling me for some ice skates now that she is taking lessons. Before, she hardly ever wanted to go ice skating but now that I’ve been taking the time to help her, she’s gained a [...]

My painted face: Jane’s simple, unchanging and much-needed make-up style.
By Jane on September 14, 2011
I used to be the kind of person that would just be MORTIFIED if anyone saw me without make-up but over the years, I’ve become more comfortable with myself and I realized that people really just don’t give a shit. They may think in their head, “Da-ang, girlfriend look like ass without her make-up on.” [...]

Jane’s Maternity Wear: Trashy Preggar.
By Jane on April 12, 2011
I wanted to do something a little different for a maternity shoot so I asked Lucy to help me out. Trashy preggar was the theme. I SQUEEZED myself into this tight little black, stretchy dress that has been in my closet for the last 15 years. Okay so my mom would DIE if she saw [...]

But, what’s that in the distance? Let me zoom in. Another head bobber like myself. Someone get this man another shot of espresso! Sleeping [...]

Going to Lake Ontario to play cards, skip rocks, and float our boat.
By Jane on July 23, 2010
Queenie takes the gang and I to LAKESHORE. Lakeshore, I guess, is like the Santa Monica Blvd. of Toronto…kinda. It’s a long stretch of beaches, businesses, parks, and of course, the lake…Lake Ontario. Did I mention that Queenie has TERMINAL TACKY EYE? Yes, I’m making fun of my FABULOUS aunt’s fashion prowess. I love it though.It’s [...]

Your Daily Benz: Benz and his new AMERICAN GIRLfriend.
By Jane on November 14, 2011
Benz was recently introduced to Thelma’s AMERICAN GIRLfriend. Benz instantly took a liking to her. Aren’t they so cute together? As with most “men” his age, he shows affection by pulling her hair. Soon though, things started to get serious and Benz was smitten. In the end, he was kissing her feet!! Whoa boy! Take [...]

Dick has a soccer injury: ELEPHANTITIS concerns ensue.
By Jane on August 14, 2010
Dick was recently in Gotham City again and while working, he took some time off to play soccer with the guys. I always worry about Dick playing soccer because it is quite an aggressive sport, even if only the feet are involved. Dick is super competitive (He claims he could have been a Soccer Star. [...]
Dogs: The latest accessory and social magnet.
By Jane on May 19, 2010
People have dogs for companionship but lately, dogs have become kind of like an accessory and social magnet. Right beside the fountain of geysers where we were splashing around in the water is a field where many people like to come to kick around a ball, throw a frisbee, toss a baseball, or many people [...]

Non-playful, lazy mom Jane watches as the Dads play with the girls.
By Jane on July 7, 2011
With Mr. Bean and his kids in town visiting, this time we thought we would show them a little bit of downtown Metropolis. Remember I don’t leave my bubble often but in the summer, we like to venture out and take the kids downtown sometimes for some water fun. THE PLAYGROUND First we started [...]

Racing up escalators turns to injury…for Jane.
By Jane on August 4, 2010
After spending a few days in Metropolis, it was time for my cousin to head to her next destination, Los Angeles, to see my sister Lucy Lu. Spending the last couple weeks with MIA has been so super fun and it never seems like enough time when I’m with family. Every time my family leaves [...]

Jane fails first Glucose Test and must go in for the 3-hour Test. Ugh…
By Jane on March 4, 2011
So, I failed the preliminary Glucose Test but missed the mark marginally. I scored 152 and 140 is the limit. Still, they wanted me to go in for the extended Glucose Test, which lasts THREE HOURS and fasting is required…because telling a pregnant woman to starve herself is a good thing. After delaying and forgetting [...]

So while I was hanging with my girl having coffee, her “man friend” calls. “Man friend” was asking her what she was doing. Confuscia says…(matter-of-factly) “We hangin’ out here at the Starbucks lookin’ like a million bucks.” LOL. -Jane, Friend to Confuscia.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Don’t know if it’s the baby or writer’s block or just total lack of motivation but I’m totally slack in writing posts. Apologies all around. Hoping to come out of this blog slump soon. -Jane, Unmotivated. Look, I’m not even motivated to change the font of my signature [...]

Jane and Dick: Goth School Girl and Boy.
By Jane on November 2, 2010
As you may remember, Dick I were School Girl and Preppy School Boy last week. This week, I wanted to venture to the DARK side and get my yearly inner GOTH out. You know how much I am Goth at heart. So I brought out the chains and spiked studded jewelry. I really dig the chains and [...]

Santa Baby eats the steering wheel!
By Jane on December 19, 2011
Having a baby makes me super lazy to run into the store. It’s never a quick in and out. So, when the girls needed a couple of items for their homeschool co-op cooking class, I sent them in with some money and told them to get what they needed while Benz and I chill in [...]
