My lovely Thelma thought she would help her Mommy out and clean the bathroom. No, I did not force her…She totally did this out of her own will and the goodness of her sweet little heart. Actually, I wasn’t supposed to see any of this. Thelma wanted to surprise me. Thelma is wearing a vintage dress from [...]

Ice Skating in LA during winter in shorts and tee shirts???
By Jane on January 13, 2010
When we were in LA, Thelma was begging me to go ice skating like EVERY DAY. She missed it SO much. Around the corner from J Lo’s place was one of those small, temporary outdoor rinks they set up over the “winter” in her area. I don’t like these because usually the ice is really [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Metropolis gets hit by snow again!
By Jane on January 10, 2011
I’ve been waiting for this snow all night since they kept saying the Southeast was going to get hit by a storm again. And finally, it came! It’s 6am now and here are pictures that I just took of my front and back yard. As you can see, it’s still dark outside. FRONT BACK We’re [...]

Thelma wants to revert back to the MOHAWK DAYS.
By Jane on March 16, 2010
Thelma has been begging me to cut her hair again…She’s missing her mo-hawk days. This was two years ago. Girlfriend is SUPER-FIERCE with her HAWK. I wish I could rock a HAWK but this Jane’s head is too big for that. Dick would agree, I’m sure. However, it’s still too cold now and I want [...]

My good friend of ten years, Orlando Bloom, is in LA visiting his family for the holidays. I met Orlando when we both worked at Ford together. We were in the same New Employee Orientation group as my other friends seen at the Pimps and Ho’s party.

So many socks, so little matches…annoying.
By Jane on February 12, 2010
I don’t understand how we could have so many socks… And come up with still SO MANY without matches. Yes, these are ALL DIFFERENT. I hate it when I don’t have the matching pair to socks. -Jane, Non-Fan of Non-Matching Socks

Dick is in love…with an Antique 1968 Mercedes 250s.
By Jane on December 1, 2010
Dick spots the car of his dreams while we were driving around. It was a beautiful antique 1968 Mercedes 250S. This car is in MINT condition and has only 36,000 miles on it. Unbelieveable! Look at the old school knob to adjust the seat. I’m not sure what the leather looks like underneath the fuzzy blue [...]

Gobble Gobble. Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours.
By Jane on November 25, 2010
I just wanted to wish everyone an extremely great Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for and I hope to try to remember that daily rather than once a year. My favorite thing about the holidays is, hands down, having the family come together. It’s all about that for me. This year, my sis [...]

Thelma gets burned from Hot Cocoa.
By Jane on June 22, 2010
While I was with Louise at the photo shoot. I get a frantic call from Thelma. She’s crying like crazy and I can hardly understand her. I’m dying inside because I’m two hours away and there’s nothing I can do. My mom had taken Thelma to work with her while I was with Louise. She [...]

The family goes watch a ladies college-level volleyball game. TN vs Ole Miss!!
By Jane on October 26, 2011
After being annoyed that Dick tried to set blame of the flat tire on me, I was able to get over it so that we could still enjoy watching the Lady Vols play against Ole Miss. From what we hear, there is quite a rivalry between these two teams and so it should be an [...]

Jane spending time with family.
By Jane on July 1, 2010
Sorry to be utterly slacking with my blogs. I’ve been spending some much needed time with my family from Australia and Toronto. Will catch you guys up on it very soon. Much much much to show you. Sometimes, you have to just live life instead of just talking about it. -Jane, Loving Spending Time with [...]

Your daily Benz: To TUCK or not to TUCK…my sweet little sailor.
By Jane on August 15, 2011
My lovely seester, Lucy Lu, comes in town to visit us again and has a gift for my Benz. It’s a sailor outfit bought from H&M. We don’t have H&M in Metropolis and I SOOOO wish we did! This outfit was only like $6. Aunt Lucy, please stop squishing me!! Much better. What you [...]

While the girls are playing on the playground, Dick and I go for a walk with Benz. Only, it seems like it’s just the two of them… Dick took a few of me but they were just hideous. Not solely the fault of the photographer. I wish Dick had some photo skillz so that I [...]

Some things run in the family… Guess who else has OCD and a feet picking problem? The Queen herself. See people? Socks don’t make a difference…unless they’re made of iron and have padlocks on them before you can take them off. But then, I guess it would be difficult to find shoes to fit over these socks. And, of course, the [...]

Easy At-Home Hair Coloring with Sally’s Products.
By Jane on December 3, 2009
I started dying my hair when I was in college. I HATED my original hair color and wanted look different so started coloring my hair. It’s been all kinds of crazy shades of black, brown, red, orange, and even blond highlights. Although I used to get it professionally done, this is extremely pricey for one [...]

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 [...]

My great aunt visits from France.
By Jane on August 13, 2010
My great aunt, MAGDA, from my dad’s side lives in South France and was visiting other family in the US so she decided to swing by Metropolis to come see us. The number of visitors we are having this year is insane! But, it’s the best kind of insanity…family! I’m so glad to see her [...]
