Remember when we went to the Mayfield Corn Maze? Well, I picked up a good size pumpkin there and it’s been sitting there until well…now. Thelma, Louise and I finally decided that we would carve the pumpkin. A bit last minute but better than never.

New beds for the girls. With the frames still in boxes, the girls have fun with the bedding.
By Jane on December 28, 2010
As you may know, the girls share a room and they also share a lounging type futon bed. We love that bed as it is quite comfortable. I also am a firm believer that making kids share a room makes them closer and teaches them to share early on. Lucy and I shared a room [...]

A great natural substitute for your eye make-up remover.
By Jane on September 12, 2011
Whenever I get out of the shower or pool, and because I don’t use waterproof mascara, I look like a scary mess. My kids tell me all the time, “Mommy, you look scary today.” Thank you dahling! That’s me, Scary-Mary Jane. Mascara doesn’t come off very well, even when you use soap. You have to [...]

Jane runs out of gas, literally, not figuratively.
By Jane on January 25, 2011
So I’m on my way to do a family photo shoot and it’s about 30 minutes away from my house. I’m driving the Caddie and I hardly every drive it…I’m usually just the passenger. I’ve never owned a Caddie before (Yes, this is the same Caddie that we got locked out of.). It’s not really [...]

Thelma, being almost 10 and anti-pink/anti-girly, no longer plays with her Build-a-Bear. Well, that is, until recently, she discovered that the same clothes may fit her unsuspecting little brother. Little Benz sitting innocently and happily. Now look at him. He’s horrified. “Why sissy, why?!?!?” Not a happy camper. He no likey-likey. Then the other day, [...]

Here comes the NEW GEEK SQUAD!
By Jane on April 25, 2010
We’re at BEST BUY and they, too, have gotten in on the CUSTOM BUGGY bandwagon. My kids love these cars and will snag one at every opportunity…even if we just need a couple of things that I can just as easily carry. However, Mommy gets suckered into pushing this heavy thing. I’m just wondering when they [...]

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 [...]

I saw this on one of my friend’s Facebook wall and found it QUITE amusing. A woman is standing in front of a mirror, nude, staring at herself and not liking what she’s seeing one bit. Turning this way and that, she says to her husband, “I feel fat, old, ugly and saggy, and I [...]

Jane and Dick: Goth School Girl and Boy.
By Jane on November 2, 2010
As you may remember, Dick I were School Girl and Preppy School Boy last week. This week, I wanted to venture to the DARK side and get my yearly inner GOTH out. You know how much I am Goth at heart. So I brought out the chains and spiked studded jewelry. I really dig the chains and [...]

I got a good forward the other day…and by “good forward” I mean it wasn’t too long or wordy, had lots of pictures and made me smile. Anything longer than and page with lots of words and no pictures will SURELY not be read if you forward it to me. This particular forward was full [...]

Oh, my food baby (as Louise kindly calls my enlarging tummy) is getting even bigger. Yes, it’s a good holiday. However, regret has already hit. At this rate, baby will be due in spring. Sigh…Melly Belly. -Jane, Food Baby Carrier

By Jane on November 6, 2009

GRITS If you don’t know what grits are, you’re missing out! (Click HERE to see what Wiki can tell you about it.) A popular dish [...]

Dick, Mamma F and J Lo seem to have no problems finding celebrities. They run into a Persian celebrity at a local Persian supermarket in Woodland Hills. His name is Sattar and he is one of the most famous traditional Persian singers out there.

PAINTING FRENZIE: The front porch gets an uplift too.
By Jane on May 11, 2010
It’s spring and since it’s still somewhat nice outside and not too hot, I like to do some work around the house. Not only did the back porch need some lovin’, the front porch does too! See where I went pressure-washer crazy?

I saw these rose petals laying around the other day and asked the girls why this rose had been taken apart. I thought there were doing it just for fun or to put in a bath or something. It was a rose from a bundle my dad had bought for my mom for Valentine’s day. [...]

Our first trip to the mountains this summer.
By Jane on June 3, 2010
Every year since I was a kid, we go the mountains during the summer for some FAMILY FUN. Our tradition is that we go to the same spot, pack lunch and just CHILL. My parents, Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac, usually go with us and they always have the MOST FABULOUS lunch ready for us. [...]

Jane: TuTu-wearing Ballet Dancer
By Jane on November 17, 2009
Louise is taking ballet. I think she likes it because she’s taking it without Thelma so it gives her a sense of identity and individualism. This week at the studio we go to is “Mother-Daughter” dance week. Louise has been looking forward to this since she knew they were having it. So, I put on [...]

Tiger Woods teacher holds press conference. Another FAME WHORE seeking their 15 minutes.
By Jane on April 3, 2010
Tiger’s former GRADE SCHOOL teacher gave a press conference the other day and is demanding an apology. Woman, you need to get off your high horse and stop trying to cash in on your 15 MINUTES OF FAME! Now I’m not siding on the SERIAL CHEATER’S side but I think it’s ABSOLUTELY LAUGHABLE and RIDICULOUS [...]
