Green Tea, Apple Cinnamon Cake & Art Time
By Jane on November 7, 2009
The girls recently came across a drawing book that I had when I was a kid, saved by my dear Mom (she keeps EVERYTHING). Inspired, they wanted to learn how to draw like Mommy. I told them it just takes practice and explained some basics. Try not to draw from memory (which usually turns out [...]

We dine with Lucy and Ricky. Japanese BBQ!!!
By Jane on February 5, 2010
Before I leave LA to come back to Metropolis, the girls and I dine with Lucy and Ricky as one of our last meals together. They take us to a fantastic restaurant called Gyu-Kaku…a Japanese BBQ restaurant. If you’ve never had Japanese or Korean BBQ (practically the same thing), you are missing out! At the [...]

My favorite toothbrush. Economical and Ecological.
By Jane on September 9, 2010
It is reported that 50 million pounds of toothbrushes are dumped into landfills yearly. That’s alot of freakin’ toothbrushes. I’ve always wanted to recycle and have been just too lazy to. No more excuses and this family finally on the recycle bandwagon. In addition to recycling, I figure why not use ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY toothbrushes? Made by [...]

WARNING! Smoking causes impotence, y’all!
By Jane on November 5, 2009
I lived in Canada for about 9 months in one of the best cities in the world…TORONTO. Because it’s Canada and they have massive taxes for everything, cigarettes are no different. I was shocked when I was there about a year ago and a pack cost $10. When I lived there almost 10 years ago, [...]

By Jane on July 28, 2010
After a fun-filled day of splish splash at the waterpark, I take MIA out to LADIES NIGHT at the local sports bar. You know the one where I was PROPOSED TO last time. I invite my girl June Cleaver as well, seeing that we all had such a great time together the last time we [...]

Emergency cell phone rescue today paid off.
By Jane on December 1, 2009
I had the most unfortunate task of saving my cell phone today. Because I was wearing my PJs and had no pockets for my phone, I slid it down the back of my pants, so that my panties were holding it in place (Luckily, I don’t wear thongs). I know, great place right? Whatever. So, [...]

Middle man down! Injury on the job by a machete-potato peeler.
By Jane on October 7, 2009
There are certain hazards that come with the job. It’s just goes with the territory. Today, I sliced off a chunk of my skin peeling potatoes. It’s just the risk one takes when one is feeding one’s family. You don’t even think about it. You just do it. Yet another hazard in the throws of [...]

My girls inherited their Dad’s dominant “curly-hair” gene. Well, Thelma more than Louise. Thelma’s hair has this lovely curl at the ends of her hair that makes her hair look effortlessly stylish. Super cute. I love it! The curls are even more prominent in the summer. Asians, because most of us have naturally straight hair [...]

FREAKY EYES: Does it ever seem like someone is watching you?
By Jane on October 8, 2010
The girls spotted this tree with an eye on it staring right back at us. Weird and Freaky. That’s not drawn on there, it’s naturally like that. Then, on another day, I see the same tree…but from a different angle this time. And what do I see? TWO EYES staring back at me. Too freaky! [...]

A little while back, I stopped using lotions. Any kind of lotions…for the hands, body, face, suntan/block lotions. I just don’t use them anymore. Why? Well, it started years ago when I was reading that book that book, Natural Cures by Kevin Trudeau. And actually, that book is not really that great of a book, but the one [...]

Ok, so publicly announcing that I have a feet picking problem has not helped me to pick it any less. I’m REALLY in pain right now, slightly bleeding, and walking around on my tippy toes. YOWZERS!! This is really a problem. Now, how am I going to be a ping-pong champion if I can’t even [...]
