Husbands need help with everything. Dick likes doing “everything” together because I’m super fun and make life exciting for him. We’re headed to Kinkos since Dick has to FedEx a couple of things and we’re stopping along the way before we go to the auction to test drive cars. Of course, Dick needs my help [...]

Farewell LA! It was fun but we gots ta get back to the real world.
By Jane on May 5, 2012
I know it seems like I’ve been out in LA forever but actually, I’m just really slow at blogging. And despite the cold and sometimes rainy days…it was such a great vacation for us! Visiting my sister and Prince Abubu, spending time together with the family without distractions of every day work and life. And [...]

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 [...]

I hate eye poo. By eye-poo, I’m talking about that crusty shit that makes your eyes stick together. What is the formal word for it? I know it in Vietnamese but not in English. I’m sure my doctor friends can tell me. Anyway, poor Benz got “an eye-full” over the holidays. He had a cold [...]

Your daily Benz: Sleeping with Mommy and Daddy.
By Jane on June 23, 2011
Because I’m the Mommy AND the photographer, I am doubly doomed not to get any pictures of me with the baby or me with my family at all for that matter…even though I am the one person who currently spends the most time with the baby. However, I’m torn because even though I want to [...]

Auntie and Niece…turban towel twins. Brusha, brusha, brusha!
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 [...]

Our homeschool co-op was the host this year for the Homeschool Prom of Metropolis. The venue was the ballroom of one of the hotels in downtown Metropolis. Of course, there was a dance floor. There was even food at the prom. I assure you we had no food at my high school Prom! The theme [...]

The family goes sledding with my snowboard.
By Jane on January 12, 2011
The girls really want to sled down our hill but all the sleds are sold out so, as a suggestion from my sister Lucy, we they try out using my snowboard as a sled. The three of them actually fit nicely. This hill is pretty steep and if you’re coming down from the top, it [...]

I’ve always loved cutting hair. Lucy Lu can tell you about the time i cut her Barbie’s hair…promising up and down how it would grow back so she would let me do it. She can also tell you about the first bangs she ever got in her life…compliments of moi. The ended up looking like [...]

Recipe: Pan Seared Red Snapper and Stripe Bass and Sauteed Snow Pea Leaves. (Ca Chien)
By Jane on March 2, 2010
We just went shopping at our local Asian grocery store and bought some fresh fish. Now to cook it up! The fancy way to say how we’re preparing this is “pan searing” the fish. Basically, we’re frying it in a pan. In Vietnamese, fried fish is called “Ca Chien” and it’s quite simple. I picked [...]

The same day Louise gets home from hand modeling, Thelma and Louise declare SISTER DAY. Funny because, when Lucy and I were kids, we used to do the same thing! Sister Day would be a day where we would have gifts for each other and we MUST be nice to each other the entire day. [...]

Despite hardly sleeping and drinking the night before, Dick makes it to the LA Marathon!
By Jane on April 2, 2012
Despite drinking with his buddy the night before, Dick is up and ready to head to the marathon at like 5:30am. Dick has to be at the starting line by 7:00am because the marathon starts at 7:30am. That means he has to leave the house by 6 or so to make it downtown on time. [...]

Tall Caramel Macchiato, extra shot, in a for-here mug please?
By Jane on September 28, 2009
Today, at Starbucks, I didn’t distract myself with a book or crossword puzzle or cigarette like I usually do. I just sat there and enjoyed the view, happy to be out of the confines of my house, breathing the fresh air and away from the memories of illness that has plagued us lately.
