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 [...]

SOMEONE forgot to empty their pockets before putting their clothes in the dirty pile.
By Jane on March 14, 2010
I’m doing like a thousand loads of laundry…at least that’s what it feels like. Of course I don’t bother to empty the pockets of the clothes. I expect whoever puts their stuff in the dirty pile to do that. I don’t have time to double check for these things. So, I go to retrieve all [...]

Home Depot to get the platforms for our beds.
By Jane on December 31, 2010
First thing in the morning after Thelma opened her eyes was, can we go to Home Depot now? So, we skip breakfast and head out the door, despite snowy weather. The girls are determined to get their beds. Dick and I decided, who needs SLATS anyway. Why not just a flat platform, which provides better support anyway! [...]

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.

Backtracking a bit to Benz’s 4-month doctor visit.
By Jane on October 27, 2011
Benz is now 5-months old but, since I’m so behind on blogging, let’s backtrack to his 4-month doctor visit. Dick is in town and wants to come with us to the Doctor’s office. Such twins, ey? So, like many things we do…it’s a family affair. Thelma even brought her school stuff along. Such good girls [...]

Here comes the NEW GEEK SQUAD!
By Jane on April 25, 2010
We’re at BEST BUY and they, too, have gotten in on the CUSTOM BUGGY bandwagon. My kids love these cars and will snag one at every opportunity…even if we just need a couple of things that I can just as easily carry. However, Mommy gets suckered into pushing this heavy thing. I’m just wondering when they [...]

Dick combed Carlton’s hair down to be funny. Thelma and I both agree that he looks like the Thin Man from the Charlie’s Angels Movie. Carlton is four and a half (can’t forget the half or he gets upset) and SUPER PLAYFUL. Such a character.

My New Mi Goi (Ramen). Instructions included.
By Jane on March 1, 2010
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 [...]

Being that my iMac is large, it is not portable when you have to fly somewhere. I’m working off Dick’s PC laptop. I hate it. I miss my iMac greatly. It is true. Once you go Mac, you never go back. I need to get a Macbook Pro. Gods! Santa! You can add that to [...]

A Persian man who will cook? Yes, I’m lucky…but only sometimes…
By Jane on October 20, 2009
In our house, red wine goes really well with cooking. Sometimes Dick will cook for us (excitement!) …when he’s craving Persian kabob that is. Therefore, every once in a while, I get the pleasure of having my hunka-hunka burnin’ love (Thanks Sharon O.) cook for me. Unfortunately, when Dick cooks…I still end up being an [...]

Craigslist goes politically correct OVERBOARD.
By Jane on August 13, 2010
I was posting an ad on Craiglist for one of our properties that is rented by the room. There’s already one guy living in the house and so I put ” Currently, there is one male who occupies the master bedroom.”. Imagine my surprise when I get the following ERROR message: I can’t use the [...]

By Jane on February 21, 2012
So happy to report that we have surpassed over 10,000 pageviews for the month this last weekend. In the blogosphere world, it’s a drop in the bucket but it’s a huge step from just a couple hundred when I first started blogging two years ago. Thank you Jane and Dick fans! Apparently some of you [...]

Modern PAJAMA Family Photo Shoot.
By Jane on January 26, 2011
I’m finally at my friend’s house after running out of gas and being rescued, and ready to do the photo shoot for her family. When I do family shoots, I like to create a “mini-event” that fits the personality of the family where I’m just there to document all the fun, snapping away. I’m not [...]
