Next door to the place we had sushi was this cake shop. I don’t bake at all unless you count using Duncan Hines box cakes and Nestle Tollhouse Mini cookies. However, I wish I could make cakes like these.

G20 Summit “Peaceful Protests” at Queen Street.
By Jane on July 12, 2010
At the beginning of my trip in Toronto, all the news coverage was about the G20 and how Toronto has gone ALL OUT to secure their city and the multitude of World Leaders who are coming together for this Summit. The reason for the extensive security is because there were protests at the last G-summit [...]

Potato Crusted Basmati Persian Rice with Saffron.
By Jane on February 21, 2011
Persians love a crispy crust (tadik) when they make their rice. Oftentimes, it is the MOST SOUGHT AFTER part of the rice. Now Persians use Basmati rice, which are long grains of fragrant white rice that don’t stick together like Asian Jasmine rice. Now it’s best to go to your local Middle Eastern or Indian [...]

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 [...]

By Jane on February 17, 2011
Lately, Thelma and I don’t get to spend that much time alone. Her and Dick have alot in common and tend to gravitate toward each other. However, she’s still my baby and I thought we could use some ALONE TIME together. So, we decided to go hang out while Dick and Louise went for a [...]

Shopping at the market for a unique gift.
By Jane on September 22, 2010
Lucy’s birthday was coming up and I wanted to get her something unique. What I wanted to get her was a nice apron, since my dear sister (who never used to cook) is now cooking. (Lucy often even uses my recipes.) But, when I shopped around, I found all the aprons I looked at to [...]

Walking in the Winter Wonderland: Our Southeast Winter Storm.
By Jane on January 31, 2010
Our “winter storm” came. Only, it wasn’t really a storm. We get some snow but nothing like a foot or anything. I was hoping for at least 8 inches but alas, no. No matter, it’s BEAUTIFUL outside and we’re going for a walk. When you have snow and ice covering everything, it’s like a whole [...]

Remember our little alien sea monkey? Well, it’s grown a little since then. Our latest ultrasound…and 4-D this time. Last time I went in, the technician couldn’t get a good shot but this time, we were more lucky. Although I’m not really sure what the difference between 3-D and 4-D is…even still, it’s WAY better [...]

Benz’s Bunz are the Best…a booty call I’m down for!
By Jane on December 11, 2011
Because the baby age flies by, I wanted to try to capture some of Benz’s nooks, crannies, rolls so that we could somewhat “preserve” this age. The softest part of his skin is his back and stomach. It’s so velvety soft. One of my favorite parts of his body is his neck. You may even [...]
