Since I was already in my pajamas for pajama day at our homeschool co-op, I decided that I was SO COMFORTABLE that I did not want to change out of my outfit, even though I had some grocery shopping to do later that day. Yes, it’s FREAKIN’ COLD! Ok, so I did get a few [...]

Convenience shopping at Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac’s.
By Jane on October 27, 2010
We were out of eggs and rather than going to the grocery store and have to get dressed, drive, park, walk all the way to the back the store, get my eggs, possibily get distracted and buy a million other things, come back to the front, wait in line, check out, pay, find and walk to [...]

They’re not little pumpkins, they’re Persimmons! Fruit of the Gods.
By Jane on November 4, 2009
It looks like a tomato or a mini-pumpkin but actually this sweet, crunchy fruit is well loved by Asians and Persians, especially my family. It’s fall and my parents’ Persimmon tree is full of Persimmons. One year, they had close to 500 of these orange beauties on ONE tree! Then we had a late frost [...]

I lose Dick’s keys and make PROPER use of Lucy’s “Apology” note pad she gave me.
By Jane on April 22, 2010
All day I’ve been pressure washing the deck, putting away stuff in the shed, cleaning, blowing leaves off the roof of the house, planting flowers…and in between all that, I lost Dick’s keys. (Because I went to get gas for my machines and didn’t put the keys back where they belong.) RUMMAGING THROUGH TRASH SUCKS [...]
That effing wire is a death trap!!!
By Jane on September 23, 2009
My sister, Lucy Lu, is in town for her birthday and her boyfriend, Ricky Ricardo, is joining us as well. Lucy is my bestest friend and I love her dearly. Lucy and I have this thing where we speak in different accents all the time. Sometimes Chinese, sometimes Mexican, German, Japanese, British, Indian, [...]

Pregnancy Rhinitis is killing me. I hate not being able to breath through my nose.
By Jane on December 17, 2010
One of the things I detest most in life is having a stuffy nose and having to breath through my mouth. I feel like I’m eating all the dust particles in the air. Since being pregnant, it’s been non-stop stuffage of the nose. After doing some research, it turns out this actually a condition and is [...]

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 [...]

Jane: Anal Corn on the Cob Eater.
By Jane on June 6, 2011
You may remember me mentioning my two loves and must haves to survive in the summer…watermelon and corn on the cob. I LOVE LOVE LOVE corn on the cob and could easily eat like 4-5 (or possibly more) in a day! Now corn is one of those things I do NOT like to share with [...]
Pregnancy Woes: Jane needs Depends.
By Jane on May 2, 2011
Quite embarrassing as it is, I must bring it to light because I feel I am not the only one out there that is experiencing random pregnancy incontinence. Remember how I mentioned having leakage problems during the winter. Well, it was around the same time RHINITIS was at its worst and I was feeling the [...]

Louise hand models for Dentek Fun Flossers for kids.
By Jane on September 24, 2010
Louise got called in be a “hand model” for a print job. We didn’t know what product she was modeling or who the company was until we got to the studio for the shoot. The product was DENTEK FUN FLOSSERS for kids. On the way to the studio, Louise and I were chatting. “I hope [...]

The kids want some new furniture…
By Jane on December 14, 2009
This nouveau furniture store is right around the corner from Lucy’s house. The kids love it but somehow, I just don’t think the style suites my house. I do love the white couch and chair that is behind Thelma.

Sorry for the sparse blogs. I’m not quite sure but I think having a third child is taking up all my time. Blogging seems to have taken a back seat to enjoying time with my new son, kids, husband and and taking care of our daily meals, clean-up, homeschooling, businesses, and Starbucks. With everything going [...]

My new fave place in Gotham City: Amelie’s French Bakery. Bon Apetit!!!
By Jane on August 29, 2011
Our last night in Gotham City and we decided to go to one of Dick’s favorite places. It’s a French Bakery and it’s open 24 hours! Dick tells me this used to be a factory that was converted into a commercial shopping strip. Amelie’s French Bakery is one of business here. Inside is an eclectic-style [...]

Thanksgiving Dinner by Jane and Lucy
By Jane on November 27, 2009
I love Thanksgiving dinner and I always eat to the point where I think I will explode. This Thanksgiving was no different, except, this time Lucy Lu and I made dinner. The turkey was marinated by my dad, Freddy Mac, and stuffed by Lucy so there’s no recipe. I was the one who roasted it [...]

Ok, so publicly announcing that I have a feet picking problem has not helped me to pick it any less. I’m REALLY in pain right now, slightly bleeding, and walking around on my tippy toes. YOWZERS!! This is really a problem. Now, how am I going to be a ping-pong champion if I can’t even [...]

SPRING IS HERE! Using Fanny Mae’s fresh flowers to decorate and liven up my house.
By Jane on March 20, 2011
Since SPRING is HERE (Officially on March 21st) and we have guests coming from out of town coming to visit (nothing like having guests to make you want to clean), I go raid my mom’s garden for some fresh flowers to decorate the house. Now, it’s time to arrange them. Flower arranging is a Japanese [...]

Homeschooling by the fireplace and in the car???
By Jane on November 5, 2010
Today was a blah, overcast, occassionally rainy, chilly kind of day. Perfect, I thought, for some homeschooling by the fireplace with some mellow music in the background (like Sade, Dido, Norah Jones, Diana Krall, Michael Franks, etc.). If they are few and far between, I welcome such days that force me to slow down. Damn my kids are [...]

Your Daily Benz: Newest member of the Village People???
By Jane on September 8, 2011
Dick hadn’t seen Benz in his sailor outfit so we put him in it. Look at my handsome little sailor. All tucked in so we can his beautiful shape. Except, towards the end of the day, his shirt came untucked and started to ride up above his fat tummy. I think Benz could definitely be [...]

Pretty Boy Swag…is pretty, pretty, stupid.
By Jane on July 26, 2010
Ok, so here’s another example of a MOST RIDICULOUS song. Seriously, really? Dis…right here…is…really really STUPID. GET OUT DA WAY…for a better song. -Jane, Non-Fan of Pretty Boy Swag.

This Jane does not do milk. I’m LACTOSE INTOLERANT not because my stomach acts up when I drink milk but because I just don’t TOLERATE it in the least. I don’t like it. The thought of me drinking a glass of milk makes me just want to HURL. It took all kinds of strength in [...]
