My kids love sushi. They’ll eat the raw pieces of fish too. But, we don’t do raw at home. Many years ago, one of my friends introduced me to Roasted Seasoned Seaweed. This stuff is DA BOMB! You can eat it plain or with rice…or with my homemade recipe for sushi at home. It’s easy, [...]

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 [...]

My favorite toothbrush. Economical and Ecological.
By Jane on September 9, 2010
It is reported that 50 million pounds of toothbrushes are dumped into landfills yearly. That’s alot of freakin’ toothbrushes. I’ve always wanted to recycle and have been just too lazy to. No more excuses and this family finally on the recycle bandwagon. In addition to recycling, I figure why not use ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY toothbrushes? Made by [...]

The girls are at the age where doing dishes is now part of their chores.

In addition to making their beds, cleaning up after themselves, setting the table and keeping the garage/classroom clean, dishes is now also a part of their chores. Since Dick and [...]

Thelma and Louise eating worms?
By Jane on November 11, 2010
Whenever I am lazy to cook and need something fast, I always check to see what kind of INSTANT RAMEN I have in my pantry. Today, we have Chapagetti. It’s a non-soupy, instant noodle that tastes like a black bean sauce. Very yummy! Image by www.homecookingdiary.com. (I threw away the packaging before I remembered to [...]

Airing out my dirty laundry, hitting the kitchen, and dumping into the war room.
By Jane on February 17, 2012
I continue with Day 2 of cleaning and I noticed that the laundry machines are all dusty so I decided to attack that whole area next. Between the machines are those reusable cloth/durable plastic grocery bags and coolers and more bags. I notice though that the ones on the bottom are moist and there’s dust [...]

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 [...]

My pathed walk-way leading up to my front door has been unusable since the end of summer. Remember my Fall Chrystanthamums that were so beautiful and took over the sidewalk? Well, they are no longer beautiful but instead are dry, brown and have since passed away…expired. That’s a nice way of putting it huh? Ex-pi–urd! [...]

We head to the LA Marathon Expo to get Dick registered.
By Jane on March 31, 2012
As I mentioned, Dick had just turned 40 and one of the things he wanted to do was run a marathon for his 40th. Definitely not on my bucket list of things to do when I turn 40 but since we were going to be in LA during the time of the LA Marathon, Dick [...]

Asian secret to strong, lush hair. Uh-huh.
By Jane on July 27, 2010
I came across this article titled: “The Asian secret to strong, lush hair.” and was intrigued. I’m Asian…what’s the secret? I didn’t realize we were holding back. Reading further, I discover what I already knew…there IS no secret! It’s GENETICS people! I have thick hair (I don’t know about luscious) and I don’t use OOKISA. [...]

We visit a beautiful garden belonging to a Historic House for Easter.
By Jane on April 5, 2010
My mom read in the news paper somewhere that this historic house was having an Easter thing for kids so we go. An egg hunt was held in the gardens, which are just beautiful here. I think that this place is used as a venue for weddings. It’s gorgeous!

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 [...]
