Our city of Metropolis does not have large Chinatowns or Asian grocery markets like the bigger cities but it’s enough for us. Dick and I recently went to get some fish. If you want a good variety of fresh fish and at great prices, I would find out where your local Asian grocery store is. [...]

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 [...]

Ricky Ricardo, my sister’s beau, invites us all over to his place for dinner. He has a swanky pad downtown that is super cozy.

Impromptu photo shoot while picking up Lucy at the airport for Labor Day.
By Jane on September 21, 2011
I’m so utterly behind on blogging that I’m just now posting our Labor Day weekend pics. This is me, waiting for dear sis to arrive at the airport. Today, I’m donning my Princess Leia hair look. The girls always want to come with me to pick up their Auntie. Somehow we ended up getting there [...]

Homeschooling at Starbucks. That’s right, Starbucks!
By Jane on September 17, 2009
Sometimes the kids need a change of environment when we homeschool so I decide to move the classroom to STARBUCKS. Yes, Starbucks….because when you homeschool, you can do that! We take our butts, our books, and our bikes out to the land of Java so that Mommy can also get her much needed caffeine.

Thelma and Louise: Going back in time.
By Jane on November 20, 2009
I came across some pictures of the girls when they were smaller and thought I would share. I miss them so much at this age. I think Louise was about 1yrs old and Thelma was 2 yrs old. See? If I don’t write these things down, I would never remember!!

Pregnancy woes: Can’t sleep. Itchy Stomach.
By Jane on December 29, 2010
The sleepless nights have already started. It’s 4:30am. For some reason, I was under the illusion that this wouldn’t happen until after the baby is born. Tossing and turning in discomfort. And, why does your stomach have to itch so dang much. -Jane, Sleepless & Itchy.

Robot representative vs. Live Person. Both frustrate the living hell out of me.
By Jane on August 10, 2011
It’s been a while since I had a Jane Rant (last one was to rant about the way Dick eats his corn on the cob) I guess it’s my loving, pleasing, wonderful personality beaming through and not my other bitchy personality. Ha! Bitchy Jane usually comes out when school starts (ugh). The kids are just as [...]

Cute vomit? Thelma and Louise don’t agree.
By Jane on July 15, 2011
My little helpers are getting the full Mommy experience. They freak out every time he throws up on them. Both have had their fair share except Thelma seems to have been more prone to it. “Ewwww! He threw up on me!!” I’m like, this is nothing! It’s a little bit of sour milk. It’s nothing [...]

Photo Shoot: The story of Mama Bear, Papa Bear and Ickle Me, Pickle Me, and Tickle Me too!
By Jane on December 22, 2011
I had a photo shoot the other day where this time, I was the photographer. One of my clients had contacted me to update their family photos because their family had expanded from having two boys (one biological and one adopted since he was weeks old) to just having adopted a daughter from Ethiopia. I [...]

Queenie Quote: Queenie responds to the updated blog. LOL
By Jane on January 8, 2011
In response to my last posting on the updated blog about her response: “She funny. She not normal. She the same (pointing to her sister and mom of my cousin in Australia). The bot get on my nerbes.” Said with her funny broken Viet/Enlish accent. HAHA. Yes, she’s referring to me. I know you love [...]

French Country Chic: Cheese, Crackers, Hummus, Red Wine and Fruit.
By Jane on February 8, 2011
The girls and I go over to my chica June Cleaver’s house the other day to hang out and check out the yummy spread she has ready. How lovely is that?!?!? If you’re having guests over, you can’t go wrong with having some red wine, Boursin cheese and crackers, hummus and bagel chips, grapes, strawberries, [...]

The No-TACKY-EYE-CRAP-in-the-yard Association.
By Jane on May 13, 2010
I woke up to a SUPERFABULOUS Saturday. I walk out my front door and I’m greeted by my Buddha. Buddha is so great to come home to. Isn’t his smile contagious? (He’s still PIMPED up from my party.) The air is FRESH, COOL and a brisk 60F on this beautiful Saturday morning. Because we live [...]

Said server of Cracker Barrel: Do you feed these girls?
By Jane on March 9, 2012
So we were having a very busy day running around and a very late start to our morning. It was around 2pm before we even got around to feeding the kids so we decided to hit one of our favorite restaurants that hits the spot just right…Cracker Barrel. We were all starving. I ordered the [...]

By Jane on September 27, 2009
I’m taking Thelma and Louise on a field trip with their homeschool co-op. Where are we going today? We’re headed to Parrot Mountain and Wonderworks. Because our co-op scheduled a group tour, we were able to get a discount at Parrot Mountain for only $5 per child, one parent is free. Also, Wonderworks was running [...]

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, [...]
