It looks like a tomato or a mini-pumpkin but actually this sweet, crunchy fruit is well loved by Asians and Persians, especially my family. It’s fall and my parents’ Persimmon tree is full of Persimmons. One year, they had close to 500 of these orange beauties on ONE tree! Then we had a late frost [...]

Jane: Anal Corn on the Cob Eater.
By Jane on June 6, 2011
You may remember me mentioning my two loves and must haves to survive in the summer…watermelon and corn on the cob. I LOVE LOVE LOVE corn on the cob and could easily eat like 4-5 (or possibly more) in a day! Now corn is one of those things I do NOT like to share with [...]

Need breakfast TO GO and don’t want McDs? A healthy alternative: Omelet pita sandwich.
By Jane on April 23, 2010
Most people I know are CRAZY busy these days. Hence fast food places like McDonald’s are making a killing! However, they’re KILLING you in the process. So unhealthy!!! Here’s my HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE to that and it’s EASY. What I love about an EGG SANDWICH is that it’s MOBILE. Granted, eating in the car is MESSY [...]

My THREE kids. More of the girls and their bro.
By Jane on July 8, 2011
Although we didn’t plan it this way, having a baby years after the older sister has worked out superb for us. I have the best helpers and big sisters a Mommy could ever ask for. Thelma and Louise just adore their little bro. I’m still not used to saying I have THREE kids, not to [...]

Next door to the place we had sushi was this cake shop. I don’t bake at all unless you count using Duncan Hines box cakes and Nestle Tollhouse Mini cookies. However, I wish I could make cakes like these.

Benz’s first bath, given by his sisters.
By Jane on May 27, 2011
The nurses at the hospital were just awesome. This one here is my favorite. She was so sweet and always making sure I was comfortable. She let the girls help give Benz his very first bath… The one where they wash on the amniotic fluid and placenta off. Look at Benz’s cone head! How funny. [...]

Another day, another park. Scavenger hunts, tag, and fun, fun, fun.
By Jane on October 14, 2009
Since we happened to be in downtown Metropolis, Dick and I decide to take Thelma and Louise to one of their favorite parks. It’s an amazing, great park built by community volunteers and the kids love it because it’s like a big maze for them.

Scammers change it up and still trying to fool landlords on Craigslist.
By Jane on March 1, 2012
I am now an expert at spotting scammers on Craigslist who respond to my rental property ads. Remember the blog I posted to warn other landlords of such schemes? (Click HERE for the article). It used to be they would post this long-ass response to my ad telling me how great they are, how flexible [...]

Every year I think, THIS is going to be the year I’m going to decorate for Halloween. I love Halloween but inevitably, each year, we’d be lucky if we have a pumpkin in the front yard. Consistently, this has been the plan for the last 5 years and consistently every year, no Halloween decorations. However, [...]

The next day after the girls best friend, Kristen Stuart, leaves, Thelma wakes me up early in the morning again (this time not AS early…around 7:00 am) complaining that her stomach is still hurting again. Whhhhaaaaatttt? I thought we were done with all that! (Sorry no pics today, it was hectic enough without having to [...]

Baby Boom in 2011: Celebrities who are also expecting a baby.
By Jane on April 16, 2011
It seems there is something in the air…people are getting pregnant left and right. I noticed there were a TON of celebrities who are expecting this year too. It’s the year of the Rabbit according to the Chinese/Vietnamese Lunar Calendar…the luckiest of all the signs. This is also my sign. So, maybe that’s it??? Anyway, [...]

Jane runs out of gas, literally, not figuratively.
By Jane on January 25, 2011
So I’m on my way to do a family photo shoot and it’s about 30 minutes away from my house. I’m driving the Caddie and I hardly every drive it…I’m usually just the passenger. I’ve never owned a Caddie before (Yes, this is the same Caddie that we got locked out of.). It’s not really [...]

Said the police officer: You have alot of naked art in your house!
By Jane on November 9, 2009
Most people I know aren’t comfortable with NUDITY. At least not publicly. So, if you’re not comfortable with nudity, go no further than this sentence. The same disclaimer that I put when I posted the song “My Dick”, this also applies. If you’re easily offended, if you’re around someone easily offended..etc…THEN DON’T GO ANY FURTHER IN [...]

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 [...]
