Since the girls fell asleep while I was finishing up our Sponge Bob pumpkin, they were surprised to see that Mommy didn’t screw up the carving job. I’m glad my “customers” were happy with their order.

My pathed walk-way leading up to my front door has been unusable since the end of summer. Remember my Fall Chrystanthamums that were so beautiful and took over the sidewalk? Well, they are no longer beautiful but instead are dry, brown and have since passed away…expired. That’s a nice way of putting it huh? Ex-pi–urd! [...]

Benz explodes from being in the 5th to the 70th percentile in two months!
By Jane on August 1, 2011
It’s time for Benz’s two-month doctor’s visit and I’m running late. Surprise, surprise. I didn’t even remember that I had the appointment for that day when I woke up in the morning. I had just randomly called to see when my appointment would be, thinking it was in a few days, but the receptionist advised [...]

I’m not one to take care of my shades. Even though there’s a nice case that come with them, my designer sunglasses end up scratched to hell and get thrown into the abyss that is my purse. Dick, who meticulously takes care of his shades, always asks me how I can see through some of [...]

Queenie Quotes: Words of wisdom from the Queen!
By Jane on January 8, 2011
Quotes (and words of wisdom) from my Aunt, Queen Latifa (aka The Chin). Queenie is a no-nonsense, blunt and to the point woman…texted to me from my sister while they are in Vietnam. “If I’m paralyzed, take me around all day. At least 8 hours a day…less if it’s cold. Don’t leave me at home. [...]

Words with Friends: Bitchy not a word?!?! I beg to differ.
By Jane on April 4, 2011
One of my past times is playing WORD WITH FRIENDS on my sister’s old and retired iPhone she gave me. I only use it for the apps, to connect to the web and for playing games such as WORD and SCRAMBLE. I have multiple games going and one is with my cousin, Eminem…AKA Asiangoose. I [...]

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! [...]

The girls pretending to be preggars, like their Mommy. PREGGAR LOUISE Oh and the hat and arm warmers are from Thelma and Louise’s best friend, Kristen Stewart. They’re from a company called Litte Miss Matched, where everything “matches” but is not exactly alike. See how the stripes are different colors on the hands? Aren’t they [...]

Easy At-Home Hair Coloring with Sally’s Products.
By Jane on December 3, 2009
I started dying my hair when I was in college. I HATED my original hair color and wanted look different so started coloring my hair. It’s been all kinds of crazy shades of black, brown, red, orange, and even blond highlights. Although I used to get it professionally done, this is extremely pricey for one [...]

Going to Lake Ontario to play cards, skip rocks, and float our boat.
By Jane on July 23, 2010
Queenie takes the gang and I to LAKESHORE. Lakeshore, I guess, is like the Santa Monica Blvd. of Toronto…kinda. It’s a long stretch of beaches, businesses, parks, and of course, the lake…Lake Ontario. Did I mention that Queenie has TERMINAL TACKY EYE? Yes, I’m making fun of my FABULOUS aunt’s fashion prowess. I love it though.It’s [...]

Boursin Cheese and Mamma Mia starts off 2010 for us.
By Jane on January 1, 2010
It’s about 10:30 when we’re done eating our yummy sushi at Katsuya so we head to Lucy’s house to chill. We’re watching the countdown on CNN but I think it’s a replay of the dropping of the ball in NY’s Time Square. Whatever, it’s still almost midnight for us so we use it as our own West Coast [...]

Lucy: Sous Chef. We’re making a Persian Chicken Spinach Dish.
By Jane on December 18, 2009
I’m hanging out with my dear sister at her place. She invited me over for dinner and would like for me to cook her some Persian food. I decide to make a Chicken Spinach dish (Aloo Esfinage only without Aloo). We’re all starving because it’s already dinner time and we’re just getting started. I declare [...]

What to do with a bad watermelon? Juice it!
By Jane on July 28, 2011
You know how much I love watermelon in the summer, well, it’s always super disappointing when I get one that is mushy, powdery, pink (instead of red) and not sweet…like this one. Oh the disappointment!!! Of course, when shopping for watermelons, I always do that thumping thing that I see everyone else do…but seriously, I [...]

Taking my Aussie Cousin for the full COUNTRY experience.
By Jane on March 29, 2010
It came to me at the last minute that my cousin from Australia, MIA, needs the FULL COUNTRY EXPERIENCE before she heads on to her next destination…May-hee-Co. Yes, Mexico. Now going country line dancing isn’t exactly my usual scene but I’ve been before…albeit about 15 years ago but I’m no newbie and actually, I’ve always [...]

So, I’m always bragging to Dick how I don’t have any gray hair and I make fun of Dick for having quite a few. Anyway, it doesn’t even matter for men because it makes them look “distinguished”. Hmmppphhh. But, Dick’s response is, “You see what you three girls do to me?”. And, he doesn’t buy [...]

My $12 Goodwill Dress. This summer dress has been WINTERIZED.
By Jane on February 22, 2010
As I posted the other day, I recently found a really nice dress at Goodwill. The dress was still brand new, with tags with an original price tag of $72. However, I get it for the fabulous price of $12! Considering it’s winter and this is more of a summer dress, I was kinda bummed [...]

FASHION MADE EASY: A Black dress…or is it a shirt? One dress, three looks.
By Jane on February 24, 2010
I use dresses as shirts and big shirts as dresses often. This time, it’s actually a dress…a black one I bought in the Grungy Fashion District of Queen Street in Toronto. It’s funny because I bought it almost three years ago thinking I LOVED it but I didn’t wear it until two years later…when I [...]

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 [...]

Thelma’s First Ice Skating Competition
By Jane on November 17, 2009
Thelma’s has been taking ice skating lessons for about two months now. Her coach approached her about doing a competition and Thelma was more than eager to sign up. Since it is a small, local artistic competition, and even though she just started taking lessons, Dick and I thought it would be fun and good [...]

Dick is in love…with an Antique 1968 Mercedes 250s.
By Jane on December 1, 2010
Dick spots the car of his dreams while we were driving around. It was a beautiful antique 1968 Mercedes 250S. This car is in MINT condition and has only 36,000 miles on it. Unbelieveable! Look at the old school knob to adjust the seat. I’m not sure what the leather looks like underneath the fuzzy blue [...]
