Occasionally, we will get a craving for pineapples. I prefer FRESH over CANNED (Healthier, no preservatives, not imported from China, no High Fructose Corn Syrup) and this is the season for it. However, cutting a fresh pineapple is a bit of a PAIN. Not too bad, but for someone like me who doesn’t usually like [...]

Jane finally pops! Our baby has arrived!
By Jane on May 19, 2011
Introducing our new SON!!! I can’t tell you how over the moon we are that he has finally arrived. And because our family can’t do anything the “normal” way, it’s quite a story (to come). But first, I thought you would like to see him. At 6lbs 4 oz, 19 inches long and coming about [...]

Jane: Wacking and Blowing Preggar.
By Jane on March 12, 2011
OMG, that title was too easy to pass up. I kill myself. (that comes with a knee-slap too). Sorry, I sometimes have a weird sense of humor. Must be the hormones. Yes, I’m going to blame everything on pregnancy hormones. Because I can. As I may have mentioned, it’s difficult to slow down. And I [...]

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 [...]

Mountain of Laundry = Housework = Insanity.
By Jane on August 28, 2010
I’m not sure how it got to this point…well, yes I do. I just haven’t done it. Folded them that is. They’re clean. I dislike doing laundry very much. And, I have no qualms about sending my family out in public in wrinkled clothes. I may be anal about other things…laundry is not one of [...]

Gourmet and natural pizza at its best!
By Jane on October 15, 2009
Right after the park and right before we take Dick to the bus station, we grab dinner at one of our favorite pizza places to eat. Super yummy and completely natural if not organic. The atmosphere here is hippy-chic, artsy, mellow, and the food is AMAZING. They are known for their pizza but they also [...]

Chinese Mom backpedals after controversial Wall Street Journal article.
By Jane on January 19, 2011
It seems Amy Chua, that militant Chinese lady who wrote the article for the Wall Street Journal “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”, got quite the backlash at her uber-extreme strict rules for raising children and why she thinks Chinese (and moreso Asian) kids are “more successful” than Western kids. Click HERE for my comments on her [...]

Enjoying Nature: A picnic by the river in the mountains.
By Jane on September 26, 2009
Every summer we go to the mountains to chill by the river and enjoy the beautiful nature that we have access to. We unplug ourselves for the day since there’s no TV, computers, or cell phone reception. This year, we’ve been so busy that the girls and I have made a few trips with [...]

So while I was hanging with my girl having coffee, her “man friend” calls. “Man friend” was asking her what she was doing. Confuscia says…(matter-of-factly) “We hangin’ out here at the Starbucks lookin’ like a million bucks.” LOL. -Jane, Friend to Confuscia.

Sarah Palin to run for President? God help us all…
By Jane on February 8, 2010
In a recent interview on Fox News (surprise surprise), Sarah Palin said that she would consider running for President in 2012. WHAT?!?!?! I think it’s absurd and ridiculous that this rinky-dink Former Alaskan Governor think she can be our President. She didn’t even know where the hell Russia is. I mean, I’m not that great [...]

Our tribute to Sunday Dim Sum Brunch
By Jane on October 4, 2009
We love to eat Dim Sum but there are no restaurants that have this in our area. So, I have the next best thing. Frozen dumplings. So, I whipped up these fried vegetarian leek gyoza for our Sunday “brunch”. It’s fast, you just follow the directions on the bag, and voila! Serve with some sauce [...]
