As I mentioned, occassionally, Dick and I and the girls do some small-time modeling/acting on the side. It’s fun and it’s really nice to unexpectedly get a check in the mail every now and then. I get a call last week from my agent saying that HGTV would like to use me for another Fine Living [...]

One of the walls of the girls room is completely blank and I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do to it. I thought maybe I would do four boxes of blue like from the brochure. Not FEELIN’ it. Plus, that would require lots of taping and I’m not up for it. [...]

A gorgeous, antique Mercedes 280 SL.
By Jane on May 6, 2010
We were on the interstate when we spotted this BEAUTIFUL Antique Mercedes 280 SL convertible. It’s GORGEOUS and looks WELL taken care of. I love the antique blue with the cream interior. This would be a car I wouldn’t mind having. Dick LOVES it. Wants one. Good thing we have the same taste. Mine is, [...]

Impatience at the Post Office. What do you expect?
By Jane on December 18, 2010
I had to go to the post office to mail off some photos for a client. It was Friday, around 2:30pm and as you can imagine, it was JAM PACKED. The line has extended far beyond the other side of the door to actually gets you within visibility of the agents that work behind the [...]

Pics from the new park that we were on the way to when my parents were following me. The sky was quite dramatic that day, especially since we got there around sundown. As the parents, we thought it necessary to test out the equipment to make sure it would be safe for the kids. LOL [...]

Thelma writes Daddy a sweet note before he leaves town.
By Jane on September 22, 2010
Before Dick left to go out of town the other day, Thelma decides to write her Daddy a note and puts it in his bag before he leaves. Be careful? Upon closer inspection… Ahhhh, yessssss… She’s referring to the MOST UNFORTUNATE accident which has caused his 3-ball situation. Don’t mistake this with “THE SITUATION” from [...]

Matching paint on a Friday night at the Home Depot. Fun…NOT!
By Jane on June 16, 2010
Our very first house is now one of our rentals and we just had a tenant move out. It was decently cleaned by the previous tenant and Dick seemed to think it was good enough but this perfectionist is not happy with “good enough”. A tenant doesn’t want to see remnants from the previous tenant, [...]

2010 World Cup: Soccer is in the air around Toronto.
By Jane on July 9, 2010
If you didn’t already know, Toronto is super multi-cultural and is a mega melting pot. Some say it’s like the NY of Canada. There’s Chinatown, Koreatown, Little Italy, Little Portugal, Greektown, etc. etc. etc. Almost everyone speaks at least two languages. Therefore, when you have something HUGE like the WORLD CUP, Toronto is well represented by [...]

Homemade Sushi: Jane’s Tunafish Rolls. Not the raw kind. The kids LOVE it!
By Jane on February 28, 2010
My kids love sushi. They’ll eat the raw pieces of fish too. But, we don’t do raw at home. Many years ago, one of my friends introduced me to Roasted Seasoned Seaweed. This stuff is DA BOMB! You can eat it plain or with rice…or with my homemade recipe for sushi at home. It’s easy, [...]

Your daily Benz: Benz and Piggy.
By Jane on June 22, 2011
Benz’s head often falls to the side, making him look so cockeyed. So, I looked around to see what I could put there to straighten him up a bit. Piggy fit quite nicely. Benz seemed to think so too…look how he’s holding on to it’s feet. -Jane, Mommy to Sweet Benz.

Adults and Crocs. Why oh why?!?!?!
By Jane on August 10, 2010
Ok, so I know that CROCS are quite popular and I can understand children wearing them. I especially like the ones made for winter with the fur inside. So comfy looking. HOWEVAH, what is up with GROWN men wearing these things??!?!?! Now, I have some GROWN MEN friends who wear these as well ( I [...]

Not a fan of laptops but starting to change my mind.
By Jane on August 29, 2010
At Starbucks again. The weather these days is just perfect. I bring the hubby’s tiny laptop so that I can kill two birds with one stone (Not that I would ever intentionally try to kill a bird. Yes, I did peg that one bird but that was an accident.) I’m not a fan of laptops. [...]

Saw this the other day. I always wonder why people get personalized tags. Must be an ego thing. Anyway, I can relate to this one. -Jane, Lover of Starbucks
