Louise and I decide to go to breakfast since we’re the only ones awake. We decide to go to Urth Cafe, an organic coffee and breakfast place. It’s about a 15 minute walk from Lucy’s house but we’re taking our time, enjoying the scenery and taking a bunch of pics along the way.

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 [...]

Making use of old clothes. My new/old wardrobe.
By Jane on January 21, 2010
Remember I said I was going to try to use more of my clothes that are collecting dust? I’m trying to use something different daily that I haven’t worn in a long time. This takes alot more time getting ready as I have to be creative putting an outfit together, but it’s loads of fun [...]

Here comes the NEW GEEK SQUAD!
By Jane on April 25, 2010
We’re at BEST BUY and they, too, have gotten in on the CUSTOM BUGGY bandwagon. My kids love these cars and will snag one at every opportunity…even if we just need a couple of things that I can just as easily carry. However, Mommy gets suckered into pushing this heavy thing. I’m just wondering when they [...]

Little Benz is totally getting smothered with love. The girls are always fighting over who’s turn it is to hold Benz and often ask to hold him. “It’s my turn.” “I asked first.” “Remember I asked first but because he was crying, I didn’t get to hold him long.” “You got to hold him two times [...]

Hangnails: Amazing how such a tiny thing can cause SO MUCH PAIN.
By Jane on March 12, 2010
Hangnails are the absolute WORST. They are little pieces of torn skin around your cuticles and it’s usually because your skin is dry. Mine is dried to hell from painting and washing my hands constantly. Plus, it’s winter and my bony hands just get dry. One time, I held my own hand and I was [...]

Spending our last day walking around uptown.
By Jane on April 23, 2011
We wanted to spend our last day in Gotham City together with the kids. Our internal clocks seem to always be a few hours off from everyone else so as it was almost lunchtime for most people, we were only ready for breakfast. So, we walk uptown to this boutique hotel that has a restaurant next [...]

Pics from the new park that we were on the way to when my parents were following me. The sky was quite dramatic that day, especially since we got there around sundown. As the parents, we thought it necessary to test out the equipment to make sure it would be safe for the kids. LOL [...]

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 [...]

Tired, fed up, I ditch all the work and head to Starbucks and the pool.

So by now you know that in the last 48 hours I’ve endured a sick child, running around to take care of our car business…kids swimming practice…packing, loading, driving…painting, cleaning, scrubbing…and no sleep. The next morning, Dick takes his pretty little ass’s time waking up. He doesn’t get up until like 11:00. Mind you, I’ve [...]

Miso soup is one of our family’s favorite soup to eat and we always order it when we eat sushi. It’s super healthy, super good, and super easy to make. This is a fast soup to make. Once the water boils, it’s just a matter of adding the ingredients and serving. No waiting for it [...]

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 [...]

Just because I’m in my last trimester doesn’t mean the work stops. Besides loving to cut my grass, I wanna make sure I’m in shape to deliver this baby. Sometimes it’s a bumpy ride…hopefully this won’t put me into labor. Although I may use it as an alternative to be naturally induced. Ha! Yep, still [...]

Your Daily Osho: The Real Robbers…Doubt, suspicion, fear.
By Jane on February 19, 2011
If you haven’t watched the movie Akeelah and the Bee, you absolutely MUST! In it, there is a special quote about FEAR…How our biggest fear is not failure, but SUCCESS! We are the ones who let ourselves be paralyzed by our fears (which are based on nothing but thoughts…not on facts.). Here’s the quote from [...]

Ricky Ricardo gets Lucy a lovely new retro cruiser bike for Christmas, which is perfect for her to use around West Hollywood. We decide to take a ride out to one of my new favorite hangouts…Urth Cafe. I’m using Ricky’s bike.

I always pictured car salesmen to be fast-talking, wheelin’ and dealin’ men. Never in my WILDEST dreams did I think that I would be among them because I’m not the kind of person that likes to sell anything. I suck at it and it does not come naturally for me like it does for DICK. I don’t like having to convince anyone to buy anything. So when I started doing business for myself, I learned that EVERYTHING is sales. Shit! The one thing I can’t stand to do! One constantly has to sell themselves, whether it be their idea, their product or themselves. Sales is a must-have skill that everyone needs to learn but I must have fallen asleep in class again. (I’m infamous for my amazing ability to fall asleep anywhere and within a few seconds.)

Since Dick and I were arguing about making the bed, there was no time to make dinner. So, I just threw some pasta together…you can get all the exact ingredients (for the major stuff) in this recipe at TRADER JOE’S. We discovered this great tapenade pasta one day while shopping at Trader Joe’s where they [...]

Strawberry-Banana Smoothies: by Thelma & Louise
By Jane on September 17, 2009
Thelma and Louise love drinking smoothies. This is because Dick makes it for them all the time….some kind of concoction of mushed banana and soymilk. Smoothies and shakes aren’t really my thing but every once in a blue moon maybe. In the mornings, I’m thankful that the girls are self-serving and are able to [...]
