Since the girls fell asleep while I was finishing up our Sponge Bob pumpkin, they were surprised to see that Mommy didn’t screw up the carving job. I’m glad my “customers” were happy with their order.

PAINTING FRENZIE: The front porch gets an uplift too.
By Jane on May 11, 2010
It’s spring and since it’s still somewhat nice outside and not too hot, I like to do some work around the house. Not only did the back porch need some lovin’, the front porch does too! See where I went pressure-washer crazy?

We’ve made up. Now for some Jacuzzi fun.
By Jane on June 18, 2010
Now that we’ve made amends, it’s back to Fun with Jane and Dick. Since Dick did finally cleaned the jacuzzi, We leave it cold so we can enjoy it given the crazy 90+F, sunny, hot and humid weather. This lighting is quite flattering. LOL. Trust me, there are stretch marks and flabbiness. You know I’m [...]

Girls Only Trip – Taking Care of Business…and Dinosaurs
By Jane on September 13, 2009
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!

If you’re going to have a guest over for a light meal, consider this fresh, delicious and easy appetizer that can be surprisingly filling. There are many different ways to make bruschetta and this one is simple, tasty, and easy to prepare. I wanted to know more about bruschetta so I googled it. Apparently I’m [...]

Visiting with the elderly neighbors on a walk to the Grandparents’ house.
By Jane on July 12, 2011
The other day we were going to go for an after-dinner walk to my parent’s house. Since their house is less than a mile away it’s a great short, casual walk. First we play a little soccer in the yard. Benz is strapped in and ready to go into a Baby Bjorn given to me [...]

Jane and Dick celebrate 15 years together! How we met and how I hit the “jackpot”.
By Jane on February 3, 2011
Fifteen years ago, I meet Dick at an International Party at a nightclub. Yes, a nightclub. I broke at least one if not several of “The Rules” from that dating book written by Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider by accepting to go on a date with him the very next day. Plus, I’m pretty sure [...]
Louise tries to copy my drawings.
By Jane on February 12, 2011
Louise loves art and had seen my sketches of the stick figures I draw laying around. So, she took it upon herself to try to copy my drawings. Here’s what she came up with: She did so good! I love her adorable stick figures! Here’s the comparisons: She also did a few of her own, this [...]

Texts from Vietnam: Already torturous getting everyone together.
By Jane on January 3, 2011
Texts that I have received from Lucy while she and the rest of my family are in Vietnam: Dec. 25, 2010 Already torturous getting everyone together. This cracks me up. This is like her second day in Vietnam. My aunt, Queen Latifa and my other aunt from Australia (w/husband) are there with Lucy. And, my [...]

Thelma and Louise eating worms?
By Jane on November 11, 2010
Whenever I am lazy to cook and need something fast, I always check to see what kind of INSTANT RAMEN I have in my pantry. Today, we have Chapagetti. It’s a non-soupy, instant noodle that tastes like a black bean sauce. Very yummy! Image by www.homecookingdiary.com. (I threw away the packaging before I remembered to [...]

Benz explodes from being in the 5th to the 70th percentile in two months!
By Jane on August 1, 2011
It’s time for Benz’s two-month doctor’s visit and I’m running late. Surprise, surprise. I didn’t even remember that I had the appointment for that day when I woke up in the morning. I had just randomly called to see when my appointment would be, thinking it was in a few days, but the receptionist advised [...]

With my pregnancy amnesia and mush for brains, renting from RED BOX does not save THIS family any money. And, to be honest, I can’t really blame it on being pregnant. $1 per day sounds great until you’ve had it a few days and I like that I can return it to ANY Red Box. [...]

Someone has a slight case of the Trucker Crack.
By Jane on March 24, 2010
I’m not sayin’ who, but with hipster jeans and low riders these days, girls be showin’ their asses just as much as da boyz. Showing some occasional crack still beats having your jeans up to your boobs. Snot me, iz someBUTTy else. -Jane, Occassional Victim of Low Rise Jeans. (Still doesn’t mean this is me.)

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.

Most Corvettes scream MID LIFE CRISIS cause most of the time, they’re usually driven by some old guy. I’m not really a fan. Unless, it’s an antique like this one. LOVES IT! -Jane, Fan of Antique Corvettes

A Hike Thru Runyon Canyon in Flip Flops
By Jane on December 20, 2009
Lucy doesn’t live too far from Runyon Canyon. It’s a fantastic place to go hiking to see some spectacular views of LA. It’s also a popular spot for celebrities to go walk their dogs and stay fit. We get started and walk up this hill. Come to find out, that’s not the starting point.

Too Young to Bank? Not at Suntrust.
By Jane on September 10, 2009
Thelma and Louise just each earned $9 each from their lemonade sale and given that they not immune to the shopping bug, Dick and I wanted them to learn some money and banking basics. We started by opening separate savings accounts for each of the girls. Using the profits from their lemonade sale, Thelma and [...]
Lucy: Sous Chef. We’re making a Persian Chicken Spinach Dish.
By Jane on December 18, 2009
I’m hanging out with my dear sister at her place. She invited me over for dinner and would like for me to cook her some Persian food. I decide to make a Chicken Spinach dish (Aloo Esfinage only without Aloo). We’re all starving because it’s already dinner time and we’re just getting started. I declare [...]

Road tripping in the conversion van.
By Jane on January 23, 2012
With our asses dragging big time due to being plagued with this stomach virus, we’re trying to pack up all the crap we need to go to Gotham City. There’s always so much stuff but now that we have the baby, there’s SO much more…and baby’s stuff is always so damn big and bulky. That’s why [...]

Yet another great video introduced by my beloved Perez. It’s SADE’S new video for her latest release, Babyfather. The song is SPECTACULAR! Before this Album, Soldier of Love, Sade had not released an album since her hit, Lovers Rock. I loved this album! Sade’s voice is EFFORTLESS, SOOTHING and ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. The video is also [...]

Crotch rocket or Cruiser? This Jane prefers cruisers.
By Jane on April 26, 2010
I love motorcycles. I especially love Harley’s and Indians. As you an see, I’m more of a CRUISER type than the CROTCH ROCKETS like the NINJAS. Anyway, there was an cool-looking CHOPPER that was at the auction. Just thought I’d show you. It’s not for me but I like the way it looks. My legs are [...]
