It’s been a month that we’ve been in LA. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed myself. It’s the first time EVER that I’ve never spent Christmas with my parents but it’s also the first time EVER that I’ve spent Christmas in such warm, lovely weather. Los Angeles is crazy but I really will miss their weather. I had [...]

ODE: For Intelligent Optimists. My new favorite magazine.
By Jane on September 13, 2010
The other day, I biked out to Starbucks for some ME-TIME and was reading my book, Learning from Salmon, and my new favorite magazine…introduced to me by my dear DICK. “You’re so lucky to have me. See how I expand your mind and make you so much smarter?” Ugh. He makes it so difficult for [...]

Getting Out Tea Stains with Oxy Clean
By Jane on February 15, 2010
We’re Persian, so we drink a lot of Persian Black Tea. We like to drink it hot and iced. My container for the iced tea is stained pretty badly. But, it’s impossible to clean and is only getting worse. How do I scrub this out with a sponge? I’ve tried and it doesn’t work! OXY CLEAN [...]

No TV = Creativity = Louise: Taxi Driver
By Jane on August 31, 2010
I’m not sure if you remember but we don’t have any TV channels, not even the basics. We have TVs and we’ll rent movies or watch whatever we have, but I cut the TV a while ago. The girls were watching it all day. Dick would get sucked in as well and I almost never [...]

Your daily Benz: The many sleeping positions of Benz.
By Jane on May 1, 2012
I love taking pictures of my baby and it doens’t stop when he sleeps. And, maybe even moreso when he sleeps because he looks so angelic. And like his Mommy, one second he’s up… And the next, he’s out. Everyone loves cuddling and sleeping with the Benz. Yes, one minute UP. And the next, OUT. [...]

People camping out at the mall for iPad 2.
By Jane on March 14, 2011
While at the mall the other, I notice some people sitting outside the Apple Store. They were camping out for the iPad 2. The only time I ever camped out for anything was for New Kids on the Block tickets…but really, it was just to hang out with my friends and was something to do. [...]

Crotch rocket or Cruiser? This Jane prefers cruisers.
By Jane on April 26, 2010
I love motorcycles. I especially love Harley’s and Indians. As you an see, I’m more of a CRUISER type than the CROTCH ROCKETS like the NINJAS. Anyway, there was an cool-looking CHOPPER that was at the auction. Just thought I’d show you. It’s not for me but I like the way it looks. My legs are [...]

Painting the girls room. We’re going TECHNO! Color #1.
By Jane on March 7, 2010
It seems that around this time every year, when it starts to warm up, I get this urge to paint. Yes, this Jane loves to paint. I’ve been wanting to do the girls room for a while. The last time, I just painted some polka dots all over it with leftover paint I had over [...]

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! [...]

Here’s a Valentine’s card that Dick sent me in 1999 when I was living in Detroit. In case you can’t read Dick’s wonderful handwriting: “This is for you & Barfi (our dog). You guys are the best, especially you, only you, always only you. Happy Valentine’s Day.” Yes, he can be quite a sweetie. Hope [...]

In the Mountains: Memorial Weekend Fun.
By Jane on June 8, 2011
You remember every summer we head to the mountains with the family? We have been going every year since I was a kid…that makes for many, many years. I feel very fortunate that we are so close to one of the most visited national parks in the country. People come here to camp, to tube, [...]

Matching paint on a Friday night at the Home Depot. Fun…NOT!
By Jane on June 16, 2010
Our very first house is now one of our rentals and we just had a tenant move out. It was decently cleaned by the previous tenant and Dick seemed to think it was good enough but this perfectionist is not happy with “good enough”. A tenant doesn’t want to see remnants from the previous tenant, [...]

Laguna Beach: No, I’m not talking about the teeny bopper show.
By Jane on December 30, 2009
We recently were down in the OC…that’s short for Orange County if you don’t know or watch those teeny-bopper reality shows on MTV. We decided to head to the Laguna Beach so the kids can play. I’m so excited because I got a bunch of great shots. Enjoy!

Jane: Possessed by the monthly demon.
By Jane on November 12, 2009
I get so annoyed when Dick asks me to do stuff he can easily do himself. Like using me as a third party to relay messages. What am I your personal assistant??? This is the time of the month where I get all huffy puffy, fussy wussy, and bitchy-bitchy. Things like this normally wouldn’t bother [...]

I’m not sure if I told you guys this, but added to my list of “skillz” is eyebrow plucker. I tweeze my brows cause I don’t have enough to wax. Neither does my sister Lucy. This last time when Lucy was in town visiting me, I mentioned, as I often need to: “Ummmm, ju brows [...]
