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 [...]

With my sister-in-law in town, what else do we do but have COFFEE. And although I go to Starbucks for my me-time and don’t like to bring the kids, Benz is still a baby and mostly sleeps. Plus, Dick would be in a panic if Benz started to cry. He would call me or text [...]

Introducing color #3: I stray from the brochure and go HOT.
By Jane on March 8, 2010
After painting first two colors (Hep Green and Reflecting Pool), I notice that the colors on my walls are turning out darker than the ones in the brochure. However, I’m still DETERMINED to pull this room together and make it FABULOUS for my girls. The girl’s room is low lit so that’s why the colors [...]

By Jane on November 27, 2011
The girls wanted to help cook this year. Louise wanted to make the Sweet Potato Casserole. And Thelma was making an apple pie for my girl June Cleaver and her kids. Thelma and Louise learned how to make apple pie in their co-op cooking class. Louise was then done with her sweet potato casserole so she [...]

Thelma and Louise eating worms?
By Jane on November 11, 2010
Whenever I am lazy to cook and need something fast, I always check to see what kind of INSTANT RAMEN I have in my pantry. Today, we have Chapagetti. It’s a non-soupy, instant noodle that tastes like a black bean sauce. Very yummy! Image by www.homecookingdiary.com. (I threw away the packaging before I remembered to [...]

Stay-at-Home: Do you feel you don’t “contribute”??? WHATEVER!!!
By Jane on September 15, 2009
I know so many stay-at-home Mom’s who feel like they have to “contribute”. WTF??? We work our asses off 24-7 taking care of our husbands and children with lots of expectations and no appreciation, raises, or adult interaction. And, much respect to those who are working Moms as well because you then have TWO [...]

Garden Show: Blooms Day for Mother’s Day.
By Jane on May 13, 2011
One of my favorite things to do with my Mom is to go to Garden Shows together so it was really nice to be able to go to our local Blooms Day for Mother’s Day. Both my dad, Freddie Mac, and Dick opted out of this one. Go figure. The Garden Show is held on [...]

My dear sister, Lucy Lu, introduces me to OXYCLEAN and so I use to to get the TEA STAINS off my glasses. Another reason why I love Oxyclean? This is my kitchen hood vent, which was WAY OVERDUE for a replacement. However, given it’s unique, custom size, I’m too lazy to go look for one. [...]

One thing that I ALWAYS do when I’m in Toronto is go eat DIM SUM. Actually, we go to this great DIM SUM place in Mississauga. It’s Ron’s favorite. Ron comes here so often that the management knows him AND can even speak some Chinese to them. There are many Vietnamese who can speak Chinese and [...]

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 [...]

My parents invest in a plot of land and we get to reap the benefits of the amenities.
By Jane on July 16, 2011
Without even knowing how to play golf or even having an interest in it, my parents recently bought a piece of land at a golf community that is about 30 minutes away from us. No, they’re not planning on retiring or building a house here…its strictly an investment. But, even though we don’t have a [...]

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 [...]

Biking Out to Starbucks with Lucy & Oscar
By Jane on November 28, 2009
We’re doing the biking Starbucks thing. This time though, we have an extra special guest. Oscar! Lucy is of course a special guest too but Oscar is the baby, so he gets more attention. Look how Hollywood Oscar is with his hoodie, purse, and basket.

Getting our energy out at the Gymnastics place.
By Jane on September 23, 2010
We have access to a great Gymnastics place that opens up their gym to the public and allows kids to run around and play at their HUGE facility for only $5 an hour per child! Believe me, an hour is plenty. We’re not interested in adding yet another activity to our schedules but I love [...]

On a separate plate, put Extra Virgin Olive Oil, your favorite Balsamic Vinegar, some salt and pepper and you’re good to go! I love this [...]

Our first trip to the mountains this summer.
By Jane on June 3, 2010
Every year since I was a kid, we go the mountains during the summer for some FAMILY FUN. Our tradition is that we go to the same spot, pack lunch and just CHILL. My parents, Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac, usually go with us and they always have the MOST FABULOUS lunch ready for us. [...]

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 want to do their own pumpkins and Jane is inspired by Despicable Me.
By Jane on November 1, 2010
This year, I bought two smaller pumkpins for the girls to carve themselves, totally forgeting that smaller pumpkins are harder to carve. I cut off the tops and let the girls gut the pumpkins themselves. I had bought the pumpkins like a week or so ago and kept delaying carving them. Last year, we carved [...]
