We’re Persian, so we drink a lot of Persian Black Tea. We like to drink it hot and iced. My container for the iced tea is stained pretty badly. But, it’s impossible to clean and is only getting worse. How do I scrub this out with a sponge? I’ve tried and it doesn’t work! OXY CLEAN [...]

Let me tell you about my girl Confuchsia. Similar to Confuscius but it’s ConFuchsia, like fuchsia, the magenta color. Who even knew that fuchsia was even spelled like that?!?!? I’ve been getting it wrong all this time! Confuchsia and I clicked right off the bat. What I like about her is that Confuchsia speaks her mind and she [...]

My painted face: Jane’s simple, unchanging and much-needed make-up style.
By Jane on September 14, 2011
I used to be the kind of person that would just be MORTIFIED if anyone saw me without make-up but over the years, I’ve become more comfortable with myself and I realized that people really just don’t give a shit. They may think in their head, “Da-ang, girlfriend look like ass without her make-up on.” [...]

Laguna Beach: No, I’m not talking about the teeny bopper show.
By Jane on December 30, 2009
We recently were down in the OC…that’s short for Orange County if you don’t know or watch those teeny-bopper reality shows on MTV. We decided to head to the Laguna Beach so the kids can play. I’m so excited because I got a bunch of great shots. Enjoy!

By Jane on March 6, 2011
Louise and I are waiting for Thelma while she’s at the Training Academy. We drove the Caddie today, so to keep ourselves busy and kill some time, we decide to thumb through THE MANNUAL. I’m just a ball of FUN to hang with, aren’t I? Actually, there are pictures of some really beautiful Classic Caddies. [...]

Do your kids love going to the dentist? Mine do.
By Jane on October 28, 2010
Unlike some kids, my girls LOVE going to the dentist. This is not something they got from me. I hated going to the dentist as a kid. Every time I went, I feared that the Dentist would discover yet another cavity. Eating healthy was not a concern growing up in the 80s. Wasn’t JUNK FOOD one of [...]

Using our fire pit to make Chelo Kabob the old school way…
By Jane on March 21, 2011
This time of the year is perfect for a fire pit at night so we’ve been enjoying a warm fire in the crisp evenings. Last night, we were craving Chelo Koobideh (ground beef) Kabob, one of the staples of Persian food. The MEN decided they would use the fire pit to grill our kabobs the [...]

Family time at the park full of tangles, pedometers, and feet.
By Jane on June 11, 2010
We’re at the same park again. It’s the kids’ favorite. This time, we bring the whole family. Fanny Mae, Freddie Mac and Lucy Lu are all with us. Freddie Mac is enjoying to his iPod versus listening to Fanny Mae yammering on about how he talks too loudly when listening to his iPod and can’t [...]

Louise not feeling well. A LAZY DAY is just the cure.
By Jane on April 8, 2010
Louise was not feeling well at all the other day, can you tell? Girlfriend had a cough and stomach ache. Since it was a co-op day, Thelma went to class while Louise just rested at home. Most of the day Louise spent in bed. However, it was such a beautiful day, too beautiful to let go to [...]

It’s SO hard to find a good mechanic. Well we have found one!…kinda.
By Jane on December 2, 2009
Our garage is a multipurpose room for us. When we first bought the house, there was no room for a “playroom”. So, Dick sealed up the garage, cleaned it and painted the concrete. We layed down a couple of rugs, put our spare king bed out there, all the kids toys, and later the ping [...]

Been listening to my Pulp Fiction CD alot lately. Here’s one of my favorites that I like to sing along to, pretending that I’m a fabulous singer. No, I am not singing along in this video. Enjoy! Quentin sure does know how to pick the best songs for his soundtracks. So GROOVY! This Jane digs [...]

Osho on Love: Stop looking for that PERFECT man or woman. They don’t exist!
By Jane on February 9, 2011
I’m reading another Osho book in tandem with my Everyday Osho. It’s called Being in Love. I’m already in love but I still wanted to read this book since I bought it about two years ago and haven’t gotten around to reading it. Plus, it’s not just about loving a mate but being loving in general. [...]

By Jane on August 11, 2010

I’ve compiled a list of typical things a scammer will tell you in their email. CRAIGSLIST RENTAL SCAM CHECKLIST: Usually, they are some kind of FOREIGNER who writes in somewhat [...]

The girls find fun in a sparse playroom at the local community center.
By Jane on December 7, 2010
Usually whenever we stay at our condo, the girls are always begging me to take them to the Community Center that is also right around the corner from our condo. So one day, we walk over there so they can play in this small playroom that they have there. The playroom used to have those [...]

The girls see their room and kinda help with the closet.
By Jane on March 10, 2010
I held off as long as I could to surprise the girls with their “new” room. Even though I wasn’t finished, I was dying to show them. Plus, they had to come home from my parent’s house at some point. THEIR REACTION Louise was screaming like a crazed girl in love with some teeny-bopper celebrity. [...]

Article: “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”: Words from a militant mom who is full of crap.
By Jane on January 14, 2011
One of my dear friends sent me a link to an article about “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”. Already from the title, I knew what this article was going to be about but I read it anyway to see what kind of crap was going to come spewing out of this woman. She starts out [...]

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.
