So Dick and I haven’t been out in months. We’re just too busy and we enjoy time at home with our girls or playing ping pong. This year, Halloween fell on a Saturday so I was thinking of having a Halloween party at my house. But, like I said, we’re super busy and I just [...]

Chinatown for a late dinner with Queen Latifa and the gang.
By Jane on July 8, 2010
After I say hi to my uncle and his family and unload our things at my uncle’s house in Mississauga, I head downtown to see my aunt Queen Latifa and my cousins. First thing we do? The girls and I have only eaten the snacks we packed and some junk food along the way so [...]

Thelma wants to revert back to the MOHAWK DAYS.
By Jane on March 16, 2010
Thelma has been begging me to cut her hair again…She’s missing her mo-hawk days. This was two years ago. Girlfriend is SUPER-FIERCE with her HAWK. I wish I could rock a HAWK but this Jane’s head is too big for that. Dick would agree, I’m sure. However, it’s still too cold now and I want [...]

Home Depot to get the platforms for our beds.
By Jane on December 31, 2010
First thing in the morning after Thelma opened her eyes was, can we go to Home Depot now? So, we skip breakfast and head out the door, despite snowy weather. The girls are determined to get their beds. Dick and I decided, who needs SLATS anyway. Why not just a flat platform, which provides better support anyway! [...]

My parents go to a Trannie Show in Thailand.
By Jane on March 3, 2011
In addition to visiting Vietnam, my parents, aunts and uncle-in-law head to Thailand for 4 nights/five days. It’s ultra cheap to go to Thailand from Vietnam: It’s an ALL-INCLUSIVE package that comes with airfare, accommodations, transportation, shows and food for 5 days was only $400 per person. A chartered trip where they take you around [...]

Does this give you any kind of inclination as to the state of my brains? I almost walked out the door like this. Only after a bit did I realize that something didn’t feel just quite right. Luckily I did make the necessary adjustments prior to venturing out in public. -Jane, Preggar Brained.

A clean kitchen and good wine is a must.
By Jane on October 12, 2009
Cooking when the kitchen is dirty is just not fun. I just emptied the dishwasher, put away more dirty dishes, cleaned off the counters, have my wine and NOW I’m ready to cook! Anyone else must start off with a clean slate before a new mess is made? -Jane, Must-be-Clean Cook

Besties Biking to get Books & Reading by the Stream.
By Jane on June 13, 2010
The next day and after the sleepover, I decide to take the girls to the library…oh yeah, and we’re biking to get there. I’m coming, I’m coming! The girls wave “hi” to passersby. So advanced in their young age. I could’t bike one-handed until a year ago.

I saw this beautiful Vintage Motorcyle while walking around Queenie’s neighborhood. It just looked PICTURE PERFECT sitting on this old front porch. I don’t know what kind this is but I love the RETRO look of it. Is that a couch cushion being used as a seat though? Although I love it, I just love [...]

By Jane on February 25, 2010
A few shots of my girls all wrapped up in their towels after a shower. Auntie Lucy Lu decided to spoil them one day with warmed towels from the dryer.

Pregnancy Woes: Jane needs Depends.
By Jane on May 2, 2011
Quite embarrassing as it is, I must bring it to light because I feel I am not the only one out there that is experiencing random pregnancy incontinence. Remember how I mentioned having leakage problems during the winter. Well, it was around the same time RHINITIS was at its worst and I was feeling the [...]

By Jane on October 21, 2009
Thelma and Louise just recently went to one of those girly-girl birthday parties where you get all done up and glittered up. They had a blast!! I don’t remember ever having or been to one of these kinds of parties back in my day. I do remember going to the roller skating rink alot for [...]

FREAK! Can’t wait any longer. Jane doing the yearly maintenance on my riding lawn mower HERSELF!
By Jane on April 2, 2010
I’ve been asking Dick for a couple of weeks now to do the routine maintenance on my riding lawn mower so that I can cut my grass. Similar to cars, lawn mowers require maintenance too. After waiting and waiting and waiting for Dick to do it, I decided to just SUCK IT UP, GET DIRTY [...]

Old Asian Drivers. Need I say more.
By Jane on February 23, 2011
Sadly, my parents Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac fall in the same category as those old Asian drivers that people so often get frustrated at. We were going to a new park and they were following us in their car. Except, my mom is driving (She always drives because she gets motion sickness if she [...]

Jane trumped by a tennis player and an Eastside playah.

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 [...]

Your daily Benz: Sleeping with Mommy and Daddy.
By Jane on June 23, 2011
Because I’m the Mommy AND the photographer, I am doubly doomed not to get any pictures of me with the baby or me with my family at all for that matter…even though I am the one person who currently spends the most time with the baby. However, I’m torn because even though I want to [...]

Jane loses humiliation bet but can definitely ROCK a mustache!
By Jane on August 24, 2010
With Lucy and my cousins being in town, we’re playing lots of cards. You remember the popular Vietnamese card game, Tien Len? TIME FOR HUMILIATION BET Normally, I don’t play for money but we had been playing for a little just to make it interesting. Well, it got boring one night while we were at [...]

One of my favorite cars is the Porsche 911, especially the older model ones. I came across one yesterday…a beautiful, silver, newer model, but with some of my personal touches. Green is one of my favorite colors so I think Porsche should consider this lovely shade of green…let’s call it “Green with Envy”. It would [...]

I Hop, U Hop, We All Hop for IHOP!
By Jane on August 30, 2009
We only eat out occasionally when I’m lazy to cook or there’s a special occasion. Today was a lazy day so we decide to take a bike ride out the INTERNATIONAL HOUSE OF PANCAKES for breakfast. Now, I’m a mediocre, well almost novice bike rider. My limited riding in my childhood involved a used Pink Panther bike my mom Fanny Mae bought at a garage sale. My sister and I shared it and we took turns riding up and down my neighbor’s 200ft driveway. Back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. You get the picture. Fanny Mae didn’t allow us to ride on the neighborhood streets for fear that we would get hit by cars.

Dinners at Freddy Mac and Fanny Mae’s. Yum!!
By Jane on November 30, 2009
Because my parents live less than a mile away from me, we’re always over there for dinner. Any time I’m lazy to cook, we call up my parents to see what they have. When I was in college, I would go home on weekends and raid my parents fridge to see what I could bring [...]
