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, [...]

We’ve caught a skunk. Now how to get rid of it???
By Jane on July 8, 2011
My mom had set out a trap to catch a pesky groundhog that keeps ravishing her garden. I can understand her pain because I have a few myself but I don’t have a vegetable garden this year so I don’t mind as much as usual. In past years though, my wonderful neighbors (Sharon & Ozzy) [...]

Asian Instant Ramen. A yummy, easy, quick meal. The kids love it too.
By Jane on December 22, 2009
I love instant noodles (aka ramen). It’s a fantastic and fast meal for when you are busy and don’t have time (or are too lazy) to cook. Being that we’re super busy, ramen for me is like an answer from heavan. Deciding what to cook all the time is so difficult. Sometimes you just want something [...]

Right song + Wrong timing = Embarrassing Moment.
By Jane on November 25, 2009
June Cleaver and I became good friends when Thelma was in public school for Kindergarten. One of the few good things that came out of that. June and I connected right away being that June is also an exceptional artist, she’s groovy, down-to-earth and unpretentious…she’s not your typical “Mommy” and isn’t phased by some of [...]

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 [...]

Louise Helps Grandma with the Dishes
By Jane on November 8, 2009
So we’re at the Grandparents house. I love coming here because there is always great Vietnamese food, compliments of my fantastic cooking Dad! Yes, my dad kicks ass at Vietnamese cooking. It’s the reason why I don’t cook alot of Vietnamese food at home. Since I live less than a mile away, it’s just too convenient for me to come [...]

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 [...]

I’m running late. Where are my keys?!?!
By Jane on December 8, 2009
I’m running late taking the girls to Co-op and I can’t find the keys. Don’t you hate when you’re already late and can’t find the keys. I running around frantically trying to find them. I feel like I’ve lost my mind. I look absolutely EVERYWHERE.

The girls and I take the dogs for a walk after Metropolis gets 6+ inches of snow…and counting…
By Jane on January 10, 2011
Since I posted the pictures from 6am this morning, we haven’t gotten much more snow than that (about 6-7 inches total so far).Although the snow is still coming down slightly and we’re expected to get a little more today and into the night. The girls and I took the dogs for a walk in the [...]

Homeschooling by the fireplace and in the car???
By Jane on November 5, 2010
Today was a blah, overcast, occassionally rainy, chilly kind of day. Perfect, I thought, for some homeschooling by the fireplace with some mellow music in the background (like Sade, Dido, Norah Jones, Diana Krall, Michael Franks, etc.). If they are few and far between, I welcome such days that force me to slow down. Damn my kids are [...]

Besides being able to bike to one of the largest shopping strips around, we also have access to several neighborhoods that all connected and are great for biking. We take ALL the kids biking and luckily, I have enough bikes for us all. Everyone is riding their own bike except for Louise. She doesn’t feel [...]

Back to Reasonable Ron’s. It’s been a while since I’ve seen my Harley Boys.
By Jane on May 7, 2010
We got new Lexus RX300 that I love. It’s nearly perfect except for two of it’s tires are bald and two are like new. The bald ones were in the front. And the good ones were in the rear. See the difference? This one has considerably more tread. REASONABLE RON’S USED TIRES It doesn’t make [...]

So my dear husband ingeniously decided to WASH my Beloved Buddha’s Boa. NOOOOOOO!!!!! WHY, OH WHY, WOULD YOU DO SUCH A THING???!?!?!?!? And why would you even think that you could wash anything that has feathers? Innocently, he replied… “It was dirty!” Now it looks like wet dog / ratty fur! Buddha’s still happy but I’m [...]

Our day on the boat modeling for Bayliner is now up on their website.

Do you guys remember when our family got to model for a Bayliner Boats shoot? Yes, two months after having birthed my son the car, we were hired as a family (sans Benz) to be in a commercial for Bayliner Boats. Nearly a year later and they’ve finally uploaded the videos to their Website. Here [...]

No way you are throwing away those beautiful orchids…
By Jane on February 11, 2010
I was walking around one of my favorite super markets and I see this lady ripping off all these beautiful stems with these gorgeous orchid blossoms that still looked fresh. Not being one who is shy to ask, I asked her if she was going to throw them away. She was and asked if I [...]
