Our city of Metropolis does not have large Chinatowns or Asian grocery markets like the bigger cities but it’s enough for us. Dick and I recently went to get some fish. If you want a good variety of fresh fish and at great prices, I would find out where your local Asian grocery store is. [...]

We check out of the Hotel Carmel in Santa Monica but before we left, I asked the Concierge, “Where’s the closest busstop and which bus do we need to take to get to West Hollywood.” The gentleman didn’t know but asked the valet gentleman to assist me. He happened to be Latino so in his [...]

Unless I take pictures of myself, I would never have any. Now you know why most pictures of me have one arm extended and half of my face is lopped off. Of course, Dick says it’s because my head is so big and only half of it would fit on the camera. Such the comedian [...]
EVERYDAY OSHO: Illuminiation. Chicken Soup for this Jane’s Soul.
By Jane on January 26, 2011
Throughout my life I’ve been turmoiled internally and it’s recently (in the past few years) that I’ve come to appreciate all the stresses in my life. Instead of looking at them as horrible things that have happened to me, I can now look at them as learning experiences and appreciate the challenges that come into [...]

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 [...]

Being Green. I’m not talking about the environment, I’m talking color!
By Jane on April 8, 2011
It was green day at our homeschool co-op again. Usually it falls on Saint Patrick’s Day but we had to delay it due to maintenance being done at the school. Even still, our co-op is about having fun and GREEN DAY was still on the agenda. Yay! Because my girls love to dress up, [...]

Your Daily Benz: Turning signal lessons from Benz.
By Jane on February 29, 2012
A couple of turning signal lessons from my 9-month old son, Benz. Can you believe he’s 9 months already?!?!? When turning, always use your turning signals. Btw, these pastel ruffle pants are compliments of grandma and used to belong to the girls. It takes a real man to wear ruffle pants. Before turning, don’t just use your mirrors… [...]

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 [...]

My wreck of a master bedroom gets cleansed first!!
By Jane on February 14, 2012
There’s so much to go through that I decided I need to start at the place that annoys me the most and where I spend a lot of time. The master. It’s such a wreck right now. Being that our house was made in the late 50s, the closets are tiny. However, the previous owner [...]

By Jane on December 6, 2011
Lucy and Louise, after both just showered. Zay are turban towel tweenz! From when they were little girls, Thelma and Louise would always see Lucy and I with towels wrapped around our heads after a shower. But, when they were smaller, the towel would be too heavy for their little heads to hold. Their bobble [...]

By Jane on January 17, 2010
We have a neighbor that has horses. Yes, I know, it may seem like I live all the way out in BFE (If you don’t know this acronym, Google it or something.) but remember, I can bike to Starbucks. So honestly, I get the best of all worlds…City-like living with the benefit of a lovely [...]
