While Lucy was in town visiting, she rented a movie for us to watch. OKURIBITO or in English…DEPARTURES. Winner of the Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film, this was an EXCEPTIONAL movie. Moving, tender, loving, funny…it is an emotional-filled movie that is food for the soul!! The story tells of a young cellist who’s [...]

The girls put on Make-up for Mommy.
By Jane on January 19, 2010
Like most girls, mine love to play with make-up. I don’t really like for them to wear make-up because I think it looks silly on kids…and only for rare occasions. They are so beautiful naturally. Instead, I let them put some on me the other day for fun. Tres chic no? -Jane, Made-over by her [...]

Serial Cheaters. Tiger Woods…Surprised / Not Surprised?
By Jane on December 4, 2009
I’m reading all this stuff about Tiger Woods and it’s surprising, yet not really surprising. SURPRISING I guess because Tiger Woods is a mega-superstar who has this clean/good boy image, a gorgeous wife and two kids. I think he’s fugly and lucky to have such a beautiful wife. People always wonder why men stray when [...]

How fast can I clean up this HUGE PILE of dirty dishes?
By Jane on June 8, 2010
So, it never fails. One minute my kitchen will be spotless, and the next thing I know, it looks like a TSUNAMI has hit it. I mean seriously, how many people live here? How long would it take you to clean all this???

3-D Ultrasound! Meet our little alien sea monkey.
By Jane on December 9, 2010
The last time I went through the pregnancy process, 3-D Ultrasounds were a novelty and not many doctor’s offices had them. It took me a while to get around to finding a doctor but I finally got an appointment and the girls wanted to tag along. I made them bring their school work in case [...]

Remember our little alien sea monkey? Well, it’s grown a little since then. Our latest ultrasound…and 4-D this time. Last time I went in, the technician couldn’t get a good shot but this time, we were more lucky. Although I’m not really sure what the difference between 3-D and 4-D is…even still, it’s WAY better [...]

Auntie Lucy Lu sends cards with super cute stickers from Hong Kong.
By Jane on January 17, 2011
The girls are missing their auntie and are constantly asking when is the next time Lucy is coming to visit us. So, they made a special request to their Auntie to send a card with a calendar, so they could mark down the days until she arrives. Being the awsome Aunt that she is, Lucy [...]

The Paparazzi are hanging out at the Ken Pave Salon waiting for Jessica Simpson .
By Jane on January 8, 2010
We had just gotten back to Lucy’s house and there’s a huge crowd of paparazzi outside of Ken Pave’s Salon. I’m wondering who they’re waiting for but given that it’s Ken Pave, I’m assuming it’s either Eva Longoria or Jessica Simpson.

Suburbialites take the family downtown for fun with fountain geysers.
By Jane on May 18, 2010
We had a scorching hot day the other day so we took the kids downtown to play in the water fountain. This is an interactive fountain that has POWERFUL geysers. So powerful that I’m told a kid sat on one of the geysers when it was at it’s most powerful and had his intestines all [...]

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 [...]

Jane and Dick: Part-time actors/models.
By Jane on October 13, 2009
Remember I mentioned that Dick and I do some acting and modeling on the side? Well, we almost never get to see the work nor do we hardly receive copies of our work. Occasionally, friends will see our commercials and mention it to us but since we hardly watch TV, we almost never see the [...]

Green Tea, Apple Cinnamon Cake & Art Time
By Jane on November 7, 2009
The girls recently came across a drawing book that I had when I was a kid, saved by my dear Mom (she keeps EVERYTHING). Inspired, they wanted to learn how to draw like Mommy. I told them it just takes practice and explained some basics. Try not to draw from memory (which usually turns out [...]

Toddler days: Fighting over a banana? And a kiss from a boy…Uh oh.
By Jane on November 8, 2009
I just found these old pics of when we were in Toronto visiting family and friends. The girls are probably about 3 and 4.5 yrs of age. They are so chubby and cute. Gosh I miss their baby fat.

Recipe: Pan Seared Red Snapper and Stripe Bass and Sauteed Snow Pea Leaves. (Ca Chien)
By Jane on March 2, 2010
We just went shopping at our local Asian grocery store and bought some fresh fish. Now to cook it up! The fancy way to say how we’re preparing this is “pan searing” the fish. Basically, we’re frying it in a pan. In Vietnamese, fried fish is called “Ca Chien” and it’s quite simple. I picked [...]

Shopping at the market for a unique gift.
By Jane on September 22, 2010
Lucy’s birthday was coming up and I wanted to get her something unique. What I wanted to get her was a nice apron, since my dear sister (who never used to cook) is now cooking. (Lucy often even uses my recipes.) But, when I shopped around, I found all the aprons I looked at to [...]

Swine Flu: To Vaccinate or Not to Vaccinate?
By Jane on October 1, 2009
I just read that a new H1N1 flu vaccination is on its way to the public so am I in high anticipation like everyone else? I don’t know too many people who are excited to be getting a sharp needle in your arm, or leg, or anywhere else! Lucky for me that I don’t like [...]
