I love the texture and lighting of these images. Ok, so actually, it’s a PRESSURE COOKER…

Rummikub with Lucy and Mamma F.
By Jane on January 4, 2010
Another favorite game that Lucy and I like to play is Rummikub. If you’ve never played this game before, it’s a great game with family and friends. The kids can actually play too. Since Lucy just lost to me in Boggle, we decided to move on to Rummikub and we’ve invited Mamma F to play [...]

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 [...]

Amidst rumors of a threesome with a prostitute, Beckham suing mad and “charitable”. I smell a spin.
By Jane on September 29, 2010
So I was on Perez (surprise, surprise) and the most recent story is: “Money From Beckham Prostitute-Lawsuit Will Go To Charity” If you didn’t know, Becks, being the HAWTNESS that he is (and only when he DOESN’T speak), is recently rumored to have had a THREESOME with a PROSTITUTE (Irma Nici). Of course, he’s TOTALLY [...]

An unconventional Christmas Day spent at Santa Monica Beach.
By Jane on December 27, 2009
We spent Christmas Day this year chillin’ at Santa Monica Beach. Somehow it doesn’t really feel like Christmas when you’re at the beach on a sunny day and its about 60F.

McDonald’s Sausage Biscuit and Gravy
By Jane on October 9, 2009
All of a sudden I get a sudden craving today for a McDonald’s sausage biscuit and gravy. I haven’t had one of these in maybe over a year, probably longer. Honestly, I don’t know how long…that’s how long it’s been. I know, I know…not the healthiest breakfast in the world but that’s why I had [...]

Backtracking a bit to Benz’s 4-month doctor visit.
By Jane on October 27, 2011
Benz is now 5-months old but, since I’m so behind on blogging, let’s backtrack to his 4-month doctor visit. Dick is in town and wants to come with us to the Doctor’s office. Such twins, ey? So, like many things we do…it’s a family affair. Thelma even brought her school stuff along. Such good girls [...]

The girls pretending to be preggars, like their Mommy. PREGGAR LOUISE Oh and the hat and arm warmers are from Thelma and Louise’s best friend, Kristen Stewart. They’re from a company called Litte Miss Matched, where everything “matches” but is not exactly alike. See how the stripes are different colors on the hands? Aren’t they [...]

Japanese Lunch Boxes: Presentation is key. Food Art for your tummy.
By Jane on October 23, 2010
My mom sends me tons of forwards….some get read, some don’t. This one was a cute one, full of pictures of Japanese lunch boxes. The Japanese are all about PRESENTATION and it shows! But, who has the kind of time to put something like this together! They’re like pieces of art. Food Art!

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, [...]

Bush wacking and cleaning up my dump of a backyard.
By Jane on February 25, 2011
Winter and the yard work gets neglected, especially since I got pregnant in the fall, there’s so much that I should have done prior to winter but simply didn’t have the time or energy. Since we’re somewhat cleaned up the front, and my backyard is looking like one big dump…time to get to work again! [...]

Salmon with Dirty Brown Rice: Yeah I’m grocery shopping in my PJ’s.
By Jane on January 15, 2010
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 [...]

What’s that in the distance???
By Jane on May 4, 2010
On our way to dinner, I see something in the distance in the middle of the road. I’m squinting…what is that??? We near it and immediately recognize it… LOL. Anyone missing a MUFFLER??? Trust me, you’ll know if you did. -Jane, Finder of Muffler.

Queenie Quote Update: Queenie responds to my blog about her.
By Jane on January 8, 2011
Upon reading the blog I just posted about her: “Why she do like that?” LOL. Yesterday. Queenie is like everyone’s GODMOTHER. People come to her for advice or many times, she just gives it. Quote yesterday, on people giving you shit: “Now you learn lesson for people give you shit.” And she don’t take SHIT from [...]

Silly Bandz: The new friendship bracelet? Let’s go back to the old days.
By Jane on October 14, 2010
When I was in middle school, making friendship bracelets were all the rage and I was the queen of making string bracelets. No really. I was. I would spend hours upon hours knotting these colorful bracelets, all the while trying to come up with new patterns and styles to impress the kids at school. I [...]

Mean Mommie makes Louise cry while practicing piano.
By Jane on November 16, 2010
Thelma and Louise have started up piano lessons again. They have been taking lessons since they were 5-6 years old but hardly ever practice. And because we have so many things going on and a million other lessons, I haven’t enforced the practicing. However, I remember being a little more self motivated when I was a [...]

Thanksgiving dinner. Gobble gobble!
By Jane on November 27, 2011
Every year, my dad is the one that makes our turkey for Thanksgiving. He is, afterall, THE CHEF in our house. This year, Louise was craving the potato dish that Lucy made last year, Cornflake potato casserole…kind of like Au Gratin. Except, this year, she used a different recipe. AND, because she left the cheese [...]

Ewwww Pink! Going through a tomboy phase.
By Jane on September 19, 2010
We’re going through a tomboy phase where PINK is no longer favored. These days, I often hear: “That’s too girly Mommy!” So I guess we’re into the “tough chick” mode…especially Thelma. I’m not sure I can even get them in a dress or skirt. Kids and their phases. I guess I have mine too. Whatevs, [...]

Translations from Aussie to American English.
By Jane on April 15, 2010
Whilst (Aussies say this alot, which is where Lucy picked it up from when she lived in Melbourne and has permeated into this Jane’s vocabulary.) my cousin was here visiting us from Australia, it was difficult understanding her at times. Not because of her accent, which is supercool, but because they have their own vocabulary! [...]

While at the park, Thelma found a great piece of wood and brought it home. She saw the potential in this decorative piece.
