Ramen, in Vietnamese, is “Mi Goi“. And I don’t know any Vietnamese people who do not eat “Mi Goi”. If you don’t, I would have to question your true Vietnamese-hood! So, remember I decided to venture out in life and try something new? I decided to try a new ramen that no one recommended to [...]

Riding the ChooChoo…at the mall.
By Jane on March 10, 2011
Like I said, I haven’t been to the mall in like two years…and I realized why. Besides it being outside “the bubble” that I live in, it’s crazy crowded (at least it was that day) and stressful. While we were there looking at the Orchid Exhibit, the girls see a Choo Choo Train that goes [...]

The boys ADORE their Uncle DICK. Here they are hanging out with Dick as he is doing some exercises and working out. I catch a glimpse and stick around for the view to take pictures.

Even though we planned on having Thelma’s birthday in LA, a last minute party was thrown together the night before we decided to have Thelma’s birthday. Hours before the party and I’m running around getting last minute items for the party. We had invited guests to come at 1:00 but we were NOT anywhere close to being ready [...]

Your Daily Benz: Newest member of the Village People???
By Jane on September 8, 2011
Dick hadn’t seen Benz in his sailor outfit so we put him in it. Look at my handsome little sailor. All tucked in so we can his beautiful shape. Except, towards the end of the day, his shirt came untucked and started to ride up above his fat tummy. I think Benz could definitely be [...]

This girl is ferocious when it comes to loose teeth. As soon as one starts to wiggle just a bit, she’s in there twisting and turning it! Meanwhile I’m shrilling in disgust! I’m talking about Louise, previously known as my METH HEAD when she lost her two front teeth. Girlfriend will fidget with that thing [...]

OMG, do my eyes deceive me??? Kate Gosselin…is that you??!?!??! Where are your EIGHT kids??? While at my usual hangout, I was surprised when I thought I saw Kate Gosselin. The Kate Gosselin-Mom-Look-a-Like was a mom sporting the Kate Gosselin doo. The reality show, super-mom of two sets of multiples has reached new celebrity heights [...]

A match for my New Year’s frame.
By Jane on January 15, 2012
We had so much fun painting on New Year’s that I decided to make a match for the first frame. The girls wanted to paint something else as well. So as they painted, I made a mate for my frame. I likes! Now where to put them! -Jane, Ah-Tiste.

It’s 15 years that we’ve been together and I feel very lucky to say that I am still in love with my dear husband, Dick. When I first saw Dick 15 years ago, he definitely caught my eye because he was quite HAWT and HANDSOME. But, looks alone are not enough for me. There are [...]

Jane Rant: I hate pumping gas.
By Jane on March 4, 2011
I really hate having to stop and get gas. It’s just one of those annoying repetitive tasks! Like doing laundry! I hate standing there, doing nothing, sometimes in the cold, sometimes in the hot (cause you can’t have the car on), and waiting for my gas tank to fill. So mundane. Boring. If I were [...]

World Cup Mania – so much more exiting than Football.
By Jane on July 11, 2010
As I said, soccer is HUGE all over the world, except in the US. Here is some footage of when Brazil was celebrating in the streets of Little Italy, Toronto for Round 16. The streets are full of revelers who are insanely huge fans of their team and take it to the streets to show [...]

Getting our energy out at the Gymnastics place.
By Jane on September 23, 2010
We have access to a great Gymnastics place that opens up their gym to the public and allows kids to run around and play at their HUGE facility for only $5 an hour per child! Believe me, an hour is plenty. We’re not interested in adding yet another activity to our schedules but I love [...]

I’m not sure how many different pics I can get at Starbucks but I took this yesterday as the rain was rolling in. It just started sprinkling so I had to move tables to take cover. Yes, like a die-hard golfer, I will endure rain. My favorite are thunderstorms with the sun still peeping thru. [...]

Request for the Hubby to do the dishes…
By Jane on September 12, 2010
After I made dinner last night and after we ate it, it was quite the disaster area, like usual. We were watching a movie so I didn’t realize how much of a disaster until I came back into the kitchen later. Ugh. Not wanting to have to do them, I mentioned it to Dick, in [...]

Attraction to others based on Survival.
By Jane on April 9, 2010
One night while we were over at my parents house, we were watching TV. We don’t have any channels at our house because: (1) We don’t have time to watch TV. (2) I would use it as a babysitter too much. (3) My kids would harass me constantly to buy every toy advertised. (4) I [...]

Simple and super tasty Almond Crusted Chilean Sea Bass.
By Jane on February 11, 2011
I made some Chilean Sea Bass the other day for my dad’s birthday. All I did was sprinkle salt, pepper, and my special mushroom seasoning (optional) and cooked the bass in the oven at 350F for about 30-40 minutes (or until it’s cooked). Use olive oil to coat the pan. I then added a crushed [...]

Jane: Shooting a commercial for HGTV Fine Living.
By Jane on January 18, 2010
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 [...]

We’re having BBQ for lunch at our homeschool co-op today, provided by my fellow lunch lady, Laverne. Her husband smoked this pork for over 14 hours and it was extremely moist and tasty!

Sade’s New Video: Babyfather. Just the nostalgia I was talking about!
By Jane on May 6, 2010
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 [...]

Just because I’m in my last trimester doesn’t mean the work stops. Besides loving to cut my grass, I wanna make sure I’m in shape to deliver this baby. Sometimes it’s a bumpy ride…hopefully this won’t put me into labor. Although I may use it as an alternative to be naturally induced. Ha! Yep, still [...]

“Sherlock and Watson” on the search for a Wasp Nest.
By Jane on November 19, 2009
In the last few days we’ve killed about 3 wasps in our house. Wasps, not bees. Their sting is much worse, or so I’ve heard, but I’m not wanting to find out first hand. I’m not scared of bees at all but for some reason, wasps, hornets or yellow jackets seem way angrier and scarier. [...]
