We only eat out occasionally when I’m lazy to cook or there’s a special occasion. Today was a lazy day so we decide to take a bike ride out the INTERNATIONAL HOUSE OF PANCAKES for breakfast. Now, I’m a mediocre, well almost novice bike rider. My limited riding in my childhood involved a used Pink Panther bike my mom Fanny Mae bought at a garage sale. My sister and I shared it and we took turns riding up and down my neighbor’s 200ft driveway. Back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. You get the picture. Fanny Mae didn’t allow us to ride on the neighborhood streets for fear that we would get hit by cars.

Robot representative vs. Live Person. Both frustrate the living hell out of me.
By Jane on August 10, 2011
It’s been a while since I had a Jane Rant (last one was to rant about the way Dick eats his corn on the cob) I guess it’s my loving, pleasing, wonderful personality beaming through and not my other bitchy personality. Ha! Bitchy Jane usually comes out when school starts (ugh). The kids are just as [...]

Currently picking my foot and ped-egging to smooth it over while I’m blogging. Slightly bleeding. Dayum. At least it’s somewhat getting better. The left foot is healed. -Jane, Ped-Egger.

Bed Time! (For Late Nighters).
By Jane on September 21, 2010
Getting to bed always takes a good thirty minutes if not an hour for the girls to get to bed. I’m sure I’m not alone in this. We are late nighters, which is also another reason why we homeschool. Now that school has started, the girls go to bed “early”…around 10pm. And yes, sometimes, it [...]

It is through my own mental anguish and inner turmoil throughout my life that I have always sought to understand my pain and sought to relieve it. I am a firm believer that one can only grow from having experienced hardship or pain. “Many people dream of the hope for success. To me, sucess can [...]

Dick braves riding the Greyhound. We need high speed rails in the US people!
By Jane on October 15, 2009
Dick has to go to Gotham City to pick up another car. He decides at the last minute to do this and so airfare is ridiculous. With no other options, he decides to brave the Greyhound. I am fearful because just last year, I read this horrible story about an innocent bus-riding young man who gets [...]
Through the eyes of an innocent child.
By Jane on June 2, 2010
We take J Lo and the boys to the pier of one of our favorite parks. It’s sunset and gorgeous. I love the way these pics turned out.

Jane: Korean Tofu House and Bibimbab Newbie
By Jane on January 9, 2010
Lucy, Martha and I decide to go to Korean Town close to downtown LA to a Tofu House for lunch. I love Korean food and I’ve had Korean BBQ before but have never been to a tofu house. There are quite a few of these tofu houses in LA, especially in Korean Town but Lucy [...]
Jane’s Maternity Wear: I recycle Lucy’s black shirt and match it up with some Gap Maternity Jeans.
By Jane on January 3, 2011
Lucy has a lot of old clothes at my parents house that just sits there…day after day, month after month, year after year. So I’ll often go through it to see what I can use since she isn’t! Why waste I say. Recycle! Take this black shirt for instance. Actually, Louise found this shirt in [...]

Queenie Quote Update: Queenie responds to my blog about her.
By Jane on January 8, 2011
Upon reading the blog I just posted about her: “Why she do like that?” LOL. Yesterday. Queenie is like everyone’s GODMOTHER. People come to her for advice or many times, she just gives it. Quote yesterday, on people giving you shit: “Now you learn lesson for people give you shit.” And she don’t take SHIT from [...]

Jane and Dick: Country-bar Halloweeners.
By Jane on November 4, 2011
I love going out for Halloween because I love to dress up but I also like to see everyone else dressed up too. And, instead of having a party, I like to go out where there are lots of people who are dressed up. Remember when Dick and I hit the club dressed as a [...]

Surprise visit on my birthday.
By Jane on April 10, 2011
I’m 36 this year. Not a major milestone. And, with me being pregnant this year, no dress-up party like last year. Remember mine and June’s joint birthday bash… Pimps N’ Ho’s? I just wasn’t feelin’ it this year and just wanted to chill with my family. My birthday started out with Dick and the girls making [...]

Here’s a Valentine’s card that Dick sent me in 1999 when I was living in Detroit. In case you can’t read Dick’s wonderful handwriting: “This is for you & Barfi (our dog). You guys are the best, especially you, only you, always only you. Happy Valentine’s Day.” Yes, he can be quite a sweetie. Hope [...]

Oink Oink. We have been plagued with the Swine Flu. :(
By Jane on September 25, 2009
You never think it’s going to happen to you, until well, IT DOES. Also known as H1N1, flu from pigs is what it is. Sounds disgusting huh? Now it’s spreading from human to human. Google Health says the following about Swine Flu: Swine influenza is flu virus usually found in pigs. The virus [...]
Healthy Lunch: Tuna Fish Sandwiches.
By Jane on August 29, 2010
We love tuna fish at our house. Tuna is a great source for Omega 3s and aside, from the mayo, it’s pretty healthy…even then, you can use LESS mayo. Remember how I like to make the Tuna Sushi for the girls? They also like tuna fish sandwiches, where I substitute regular mayo for the Japanese [...]

Kwik Kwote: Dude at the Country Bar. Does a fat baby’s fart stink?
By Jane on March 30, 2010
I totally forgot about a particular conversation that totally threw me off and gave me a damn good chuckle. DUDE 1: “Does a fat baby’s fart stink?” Me & my girls: “Umm…what?” (We’re all looking at eachother confused.) DUDE 1: “Does a FAT baby’s fart stink?” Me & my girls: “Uhhh….yeah…” DUDE 2: “Well of [...]

A match for my New Year’s frame.
By Jane on January 15, 2012
We had so much fun painting on New Year’s that I decided to make a match for the first frame. The girls wanted to paint something else as well. So as they painted, I made a mate for my frame. I likes! Now where to put them! -Jane, Ah-Tiste.

Traditional Japanese Ramen in Little Tokyo.
By Jane on January 2, 2010
One of my absolute favorite meals when I used to live in Japan is the traditional, not instant, Japanese Ramen (Pronounced by the Japanese as La-men because they can’t say “r”s.). I miss this ramen SO SO MUCH that sometimes it makes me all achy inside.

It’s a very quiet and chill Christmas for us and we love it! Time to recuperate, regenerate and get ready for the NEW YEAR! 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 [...]
