So we’re at the Grandparents house. I love coming here because there is always great Vietnamese food, compliments of my fantastic cooking Dad! Yes, my dad kicks ass at Vietnamese cooking. It’s the reason why I don’t cook alot of Vietnamese food at home. Since I live less than a mile away, it’s just too convenient for me to come [...]

The kids are confined in the closet while we clean the townhouse.
By Jane on January 24, 2012
The next morning after we finally arrived in Gotham City, I woke up feeling tons better. I’m still a little tired but I’m finally able to get out of bed! Time to clean!! And although we had planned on staying at the unit that we’re cleaning up, we ended up deciding to stay at our [...]

If you’ve never tried Lenny’s Subs, you really MUST. It’s so deliciously yummy. I don’t really even know why…it’s so simple yet I absolultely crave a good Lenny’s Sub. However, when I’m too lazy to leave my bubble and head to the nearest Lenny’s, I make my own version of it at home. Using a [...]

For those who have kids, you know how newborns have that tar-like poo in the beginning? Well, I got to know it all too well. Whilst taking a nap with my lovie Benz, his diaper apparently slid down and little man had decided to take a dump while napping. So, much to my surprise, when [...]

Being a great parent is when you let kids be kids and let them bring out the kid in you. Even if it means you must don girly cupcakes & hearts underwear on your head. He is quite the Dad isn’t he? I don’t know too many men who would let their kids put underwear [...]

Pregnancy Craving for TCBY causes Jane to nearly open a can of WHOOP ASS on Dick.
By Jane on March 22, 2011
I was out running errands with Dick the other day when I spot a TCBY. What joy! I’m ECSTATIC because the one by my house has closed down since the sprouting of newer, trendier frozen yogurt shops like Menchi’s. Menchi’s is okay but this Jane loves me some TCBY and prefers it. Guess that’s why [...]
Microwave Rice Krispy Treats: Easiest way to make em.
By Jane on March 4, 2010
This Jane is not really a fan of Rice Krispy Treats. I know, how UN-American. I’ve just grown out of the marsh mellow phase of my childhood. It grosses me out to think of how those marsh mellows are coagulating in my stomach. Pretty disgusting if you think about it.

Just an average day in the life of Jane and Dick.
By Jane on October 7, 2009
Our days are not like most people’s. We don’t have 9-5 jobs. We don’t send our kids to school. So, here’s a glimpse into a day in the life of Jane and Dick. Every day is different, which makes for a less boring, less monotonous life. We started our day at 11:15am this particular morning [...]

I love the texture and lighting of these images. Ok, so actually, it’s a PRESSURE COOKER…

Pressure washing my patio and anything else I want to make new again.
By Jane on April 23, 2010
My back patio is made of concrete and it’s in dire need of some maintenance. The patio sits on the north side so it also gets the LEAST amount of sun and even a little moldy over the winter. It’s also that time of year when all the spring “droppings” fall off the trees and [...]

Urban Living at our Studio Condo in Gotham City.
By Jane on November 24, 2010
Typically, whenever I am summoned to go to Gotham City, it’s because a tenant has moved out and the “cleaning crew” (AKA…moi!) needs to come in. Dick needs to take care of some business so we decided to tag along since it’s been a while since we’ve stayed together as a family in our Uptown Studio [...]

I got a good forward the other day…and by “good forward” I mean it wasn’t too long or wordy, had lots of pictures and made me smile. Anything longer than and page with lots of words and no pictures will SURELY not be read if you forward it to me. This particular forward was full [...]

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 [...]

That effing wire is a death trap!!!
By Jane on September 23, 2009
My sister, Lucy Lu, is in town for her birthday and her boyfriend, Ricky Ricardo, is joining us as well. Lucy is my bestest friend and I love her dearly. Lucy and I have this thing where we speak in different accents all the time. Sometimes Chinese, sometimes Mexican, German, Japanese, British, Indian, [...]

ODE: For Intelligent Optimists. My new favorite magazine.
By Jane on September 13, 2010
The other day, I biked out to Starbucks for some ME-TIME and was reading my book, Learning from Salmon, and my new favorite magazine…introduced to me by my dear DICK. “You’re so lucky to have me. See how I expand your mind and make you so much smarter?” Ugh. He makes it so difficult for [...]

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 [...]

Mountain fun: Tubing, Puppies, Cliff Jumping…
By Jane on August 3, 2010
After being out somewhat late getting my ass beat in ping pong and pool, we had to wake up early to head to the mountains. Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac have both been up early, grilling the meats and getting everything together. Of course, the rule is NO EATING until we get up there. That [...]

Convertibles: Love them or not?
By Jane on September 21, 2010
Since it was summer, we had been looking for a convertible for the girls to enjoy. We found one and the kids (including the big one that is my husband) LOVE it! They love it so much they don’t want to sell it. It’s like a roller coaster ride for them. I’m not sure what [...]

Remember how I told you I fall asleep easily? (No? Click HERE.) Yet another movie that I’ve only seen the first half of. Victim to falling asleep while watching a movie at home…again. When I’m physically at the movie theater I can usually stay awake. I’ve only fallen asleep during 2-3 of those. Anyone else [...]

Lucy and I look for the perfect short and fat Christmas tree.
By Jane on December 3, 2011
We usually do Christmas at my mom’s house so the Christmas tree goes over there. Every year, it’s Lucy and I who go shopping for the tree. Don’t let the picture fool you into thinking Lucy is taller than me…Lucy is sporting 3″ heeled boots. In actuality, she’s one inch SHORTER than me, even though [...]

Jane’s Maternity Wear: Trashy Preggar.
By Jane on April 12, 2011
I wanted to do something a little different for a maternity shoot so I asked Lucy to help me out. Trashy preggar was the theme. I SQUEEZED myself into this tight little black, stretchy dress that has been in my closet for the last 15 years. Okay so my mom would DIE if she saw [...]
