Dick and I finally took the girls to go see New Moon. All weekend they were asking when we would go. I have to admit, I was very slow to get on the Twilight bandwagon. When Twilight first came out, I thought it was some scary vampire movie. I don’t watch horror movies so I [...]

Dick’s egg-crusted pans make Jane’s blood boil.
By Jane on January 3, 2011
Whenever Dick uses our stainless steel pots and pans to scramble his eggs, I get so absolutely annoyed! It’s because whenever he does, he doesn’t cook them on high enough heat and doesn’t use enough oil so that they don’t stick to the pan. Instead, he cooks them on medium to low heat for too [...]

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.

No, I’m not saying I’m HAWT. I’m HOT! It’s freaking 90F+ with 1000% humidity. Ok, not really, but that’s what it feels like. Getting into my car is like walking into a sauna. Even my sunglasses fog up. Having leather seats is nice except in the summer, my ass gets sizzled like fried eggs. Yes, [...]

Not your every day Jeep. Gun included.
By Jane on September 6, 2010
While coming out of the grocery store, I see this in the parking lot. I wonder if they get tickets for not wearing a seat belt. And what’s this? Are you sure that little tie thing is going to be sufficient? Why not just put a sign on it that says TAKE ME. -Jane. Just [...]

Oh, my food baby (as Louise kindly calls my enlarging tummy) is getting even bigger. Yes, it’s a good holiday. However, regret has already hit. At this rate, baby will be due in spring. Sigh…Melly Belly. -Jane, Food Baby Carrier

Recycling things I already have to accessorize the room.
By Jane on March 9, 2010
Most of the stuff I’m using to accessorize is stuff I already have. Like on some of those decorating shows on HGTV (I love those!) I decide to use stuff that is around my house because I have plenty. You remember I painted the tray. The picture is of Dick’s late Grandmother. The candles came [...]

Biking and Hill-Climbing Preggar.
By Jane on January 21, 2011
The other day, we were blessed with unseasonable warm weather for this time of the year so we decided to take our bikes out and enjoy it! Plus, we had to go get some groceries. The hill next to our house was still iced over in parts so we had to be super careful. Dick’s [...]

Sleepover time. Dark chocolate fudge mini-brownies included.
By Jane on June 13, 2010
Thelma starts to feel better after resting most of the day and assures me she feeling fine and wants to see her friends. Of course, I guess when it involves seeing friends, they always say they are “okay”. However, she DID actually look better. Maybe it was just a stomach bug after all. The girl’s [...]

Christmas tree finally up. Let’s hope it stays that way.
By Jane on December 5, 2011
We get home and it’s time to lug the tree into the house. Neither Lucy nor I want to touch the tree cause you know it’s got all that gooey, sticky sap and we don’t want to get our outfits dirty. Yes, we were being girly-girls. Whatevs. Sometimes you have to. Louise cuts the string [...]

Thelma and Louise: Going back in time.
By Jane on November 20, 2009
I came across some pictures of the girls when they were smaller and thought I would share. I miss them so much at this age. I think Louise was about 1yrs old and Thelma was 2 yrs old. See? If I don’t write these things down, I would never remember!!

The girls and I are driving through the Midwest to get to Toronto!!
By Jane on July 6, 2010
You remember my Aussie cousin, MIA, who was touring around Mexico and Central America? Well she’s swinging back around to visit us one more time before she’s off to return to her home on the other side of the world. Since the last time I saw her before this was 20 years ago, I don’t want to [...]

Brussel Sprouts: Love em or Leave em?
By Jane on April 29, 2010
Whenever people talk about kids not wanting to eat their veggies, somehow Brussel Sprouts come to mind. The girls and I were reading about why it’s good it eat veggies that are in season and why they are good for you. It is good for you to eat vegetables that are in season because you [...]

Back in January, we married off my sister’s dog Oscar with my mom’s dog, Yuki. (Click HERE for the story.) The intent was so that they could legitimately have babies (even though Dick & I didn’t take this route at first). Lucy reminded me the other day that she was unsure this would actually happen [...]

Honey, I wanna be a desperate housewife!
By Jane on January 14, 2012
I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything. I’m a blogging LOSER these days and APOLOGIES! I can’t seem to find the time or energy to blog these days. (That being said, I’m so appreciative that our loyal Jane and Dick fans still visit our site daily and even read our old stories!) With [...]

We’re eating Vegan at Vegan Glory
By Jane on January 3, 2010
I am by no means a vegetarian or vegan but I do try to eat less meat. The other day, I went with Lucy, Ricky and Thelma to Vegan Glory, a fantastic vegan restaurant that uses Soy to make imitation chicken, beef, and shrimp. It was extremely tasty and I quite enjoyed it.

Sushi date with our girls at a more “traditional” Japanese restaurant.
By Jane on January 17, 2012
With Benz being a baby and requiring a lot of attention, we decided the girls too need some alone time with their parents. Until Benz, it was just the four of us for the longest time so Dick and I took the girls out to dinner one Friday night and left Benz home with my [...]

Late Night Kitchen Cleaning and Laundry Folding.
By Jane on November 25, 2009
I’m a late night person. I have a very strange schedule these days. Working late into the night is one of my all time ultimate favorite times to work because it’s ABSOLUTELY quiet. No cars, no kids screaming “Mommy, Mommy”. I can get alot done at night. 12:30 AM KITCHEN CLEANING. It’s 12:30 AM and [...]

We’re reviewing how to make Pillsbury Mini-Brownies from the box.
By Jane on February 6, 2010
I cook but I don’t bake that much. When I do, I use the pre-made or pre-mixed kind – I know, not very healthy. I decided to treat my girls to some brownies. We see a new Pillsbury brownie mix that makes mini-brownies and it comes with 2 trays! Louise is loving helping me in [...]
