Dick has been out in Cali visiting his family for two weeks and so I’m left here to take care of the things that he can’t. Usually, it’s Dick who drives four hours to Gotham City whenever we have to take care of our residential rental properties, the car business, or our commercial properties. The property that we just cleaned up is still vacant and there are two girls who are interested in looking at it. We have a friend who can show the property for us but since he has no vested interest in it, I feel it’s better that I show it myself. I decide to take the girls and hit the road. This is going to be a nice one-nighter girls-only trip!

Back in the land of the communicable…for now…
By Jane on October 24, 2009
After having had my iMac (Time to give it a name…Qwerty) held hostage for the last couple of days, and nearly dying because I thought the Geek Squad was going to continue to hold Qwerty hostage until the end of next week, I now have my iMac back and can breath again. Initially they thought [...]

Introducing color #3: I stray from the brochure and go HOT.
By Jane on March 8, 2010
After painting first two colors (Hep Green and Reflecting Pool), I notice that the colors on my walls are turning out darker than the ones in the brochure. However, I’m still DETERMINED to pull this room together and make it FABULOUS for my girls. The girl’s room is low lit so that’s why the colors [...]

I’ve decided that I don’t need an occasion to dress the way I like. I’m going to do whatever makes me happy and wear what makes me happy…like when I went grocery shopping in my PJs the other day. Today, I’m going Goth and biking out to Starbucks because the weather is amazing for January…it’s [...]

A Persian man who will cook? Yes, I’m lucky…but only sometimes…
By Jane on October 20, 2009
In our house, red wine goes really well with cooking. Sometimes Dick will cook for us (excitement!) …when he’s craving Persian kabob that is. Therefore, every once in a while, I get the pleasure of having my hunka-hunka burnin’ love (Thanks Sharon O.) cook for me. Unfortunately, when Dick cooks…I still end up being an [...]

Our homeschool co-op encourages and allows kids to explore their inner creativity. On this day, the middle schoolers used their hands, literally & physically, to create art. Swan head. Awesome! Snake with open mouth and fangs protruding. Siamese twins is what I believe this student told me this was. Writing with a piece of chalk. [...]

Stopping at Waffle House for Breakfast.
By Jane on November 24, 2010
We woke up early morning in order to hit the road to head to Gotham City. The girls brushed their teeth. We packed up the car and we was OUT! Along the way, we stopped for breakfast at none other than Waffle House. Don’t let our International looks fool you, we are totally Southerners at [...]

For your Manic Monday. The Bangles!!!
By Jane on October 18, 2009
I was singing in the car the other day, showing off my vocal chords to my girls, singing “Just another Manic Monday” by the super-hot all girl band The Bangles. These girls were one of my favorite bands of the 80s. I then decide to look up the video on You Tube for the Thelma [...]

By Jane on January 11, 2010
It’s our last day in LA and we had just spent the night at Lucy and Martha’s house. We wake up and decide to go to Urth Cafe AGAIN for breakfast. Yes, if they had one in Metropolis, I would be a regular there as well. Lucy, Martha and the girls head over there first [...]

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.

I sacrifice sleep to make the house ready for a showing while Dick gets his beauty rest.

How much do you really need to be rich?
By Jane on August 11, 2010
That was the title of the article I came across this article on the homepage of Yahoo. You probably saw it too if Yahoo is your homepage. Click HERE for the article if you have’t seen it. However, before reading the article, I already knew the answer. Yes, I’m Mz. Smarty-pants Jane. “Rich” is not [...]

I was at Starbucks the other day with June and ran into a good friend of Dick’s, VINNY. Dick has known him from 15+ years ago. I used to run into him here all the time but it looks like he takes his coffee to go now. A super funny Persian guy in his 40s who [...]

Need to relax? Candle therapy is the best!
By Jane on May 10, 2010
This Jane LOVES candles. They’re so romantic and great for relaxing. I especially love using tea lights. All my candles are placed in STRATEGIC locations for a specific overall DESIRED look and feel, highlighting particular things.

Traditional Japanese Ramen in Little Tokyo.
By Jane on January 2, 2010
One of my absolute favorite meals when I used to live in Japan is the traditional, not instant, Japanese Ramen (Pronounced by the Japanese as La-men because they can’t say “r”s.). I miss this ramen SO SO MUCH that sometimes it makes me all achy inside.

Your daily Benz: Notorious B(enz).I.G.
By Jane on August 12, 2011
Sweet Benz was chillaxing in the pool in a floating device that my friend showed me he had for his baby. I got it at Target for $20 and it even has a cover that snaps in to shade him but I haven’t used it yet. We decided we needed a floaty because holding [...]

You may or may not know that I am the one who takes care of the yard work in our family. Yes, I’m the “yard boy” or if you live out in California, I’m the “gardener”. Either way, I mow the grass, weedwack, edge, and leaf blow. It takes me about 2.5 hours to do my 1+ acre yard the way I like it. Yes, I’m anal about the yard. I like it to look neat and pristine, hence I do not let Dick cut the grass…not that he would volunteer to do it anyway.
