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 [...]

CLOSET CLEANSING: Getting rid of bad CHI and organizing the kids closet!
By Jane on November 9, 2010
It seems every couple of months, we have to go through a CLOSET CLEANSING. This time it’s for the kids’ closet. As you know, I can’t stand a chaotic mess so I make the girls clean out their closet. They’re complaining of not having enough space so we also decide to get rid of anything [...]

Thankful that we are unscathed by record hail, rain, thunderstorms, and tornados.
By Jane on April 28, 2011
The South was hit SUPER HARD by a tremendous amount of thunderstorms, tornados and crazy hail. Some of my friends were reporting baseball and golfball-sized hail, dinged-up cars, damage to their houses, and leaking roofs. Dick was out of town so we went to my parents’ house. As soon as we heard the pounding of [...]

Tryin on clothes at Kohls, boobie cleavage, and blockage in customer service.
By Jane on June 7, 2010
Lucy Lu, my dear sister is in town to visit. Good thing because I was all depressed about J Lo, Will and Carlton leaving us. Of course, I’ll be sad again when Lucy leaves but whatever, can’t think about that now. So, we go to Kohl’s because I need to return some swimming goggles that I [...]

I love going to garage sales when I can find the time. It’s true. One man’s junk is another man’s treasure. To me, if I can find something I love and need cheaper than if I were to buy it new, it’s even more valuable! It just so happens that Fanny Mae’s neighbor is having [...]

Starbucks Moment: Mommy needs her ME-TIME!!
By Jane on July 23, 2011
This Jane is in need of some serious ME-TIME. I’m not the kind of person that can’t be alone. I love my time ALONE. Some people feel like losers sitting alone at a table. I know I used to. Especially if you’re in high school and you’re sitting somewhere alone…you’re a loser. No, these days, [...]

We’ve caught a skunk. Now how to get rid of it???
By Jane on July 8, 2011
My mom had set out a trap to catch a pesky groundhog that keeps ravishing her garden. I can understand her pain because I have a few myself but I don’t have a vegetable garden this year so I don’t mind as much as usual. In past years though, my wonderful neighbors (Sharon & Ozzy) [...]

G20 Summit “Peaceful Protests” at Queen Street.
By Jane on July 12, 2010
At the beginning of my trip in Toronto, all the news coverage was about the G20 and how Toronto has gone ALL OUT to secure their city and the multitude of World Leaders who are coming together for this Summit. The reason for the extensive security is because there were protests at the last G-summit [...]

Caught in the rain, in the convertible!

Towards the end of summer, we were at the pool for one of our final times to enjoy it while it was still open. We were only there for about 30 minutes when the dark clouds start rolling in. Still savoring the moment, the girls and Dick were enjoying their peaches. Not sure why she [...]

By Jane on October 23, 2010
My mom sends me tons of forwards….some get read, some don’t. This one was a cute one, full of pictures of Japanese lunch boxes. The Japanese are all about PRESENTATION and it shows! But, who has the kind of time to put something like this together! They’re like pieces of art. Food Art!

After a fun-filled day of splish splash at the waterpark, I take MIA out to LADIES NIGHT at the local sports bar. You know the one where I was PROPOSED TO last time. I invite my girl June Cleaver as well, seeing that we all had such a great time together the last time we [...]

We are so thankful for all that we have and all the blessings in our lives…most importantly FAMILY, HEALTH, and HAPPINESS. I’m glad to say there is nothing that I neither [...]

My girls inherited their Dad’s dominant “curly-hair” gene. Well, Thelma more than Louise. Thelma’s hair has this lovely curl at the ends of her hair that makes her hair look effortlessly stylish. Super cute. I love it! The curls are even more prominent in the summer. Asians, because most of us have naturally straight hair [...]
