Our swim team had their first mock swim meet. Since we’ve never been on a swim team before, this was interesting to see and experience.I was amazed at how much work has to be done for a swim meet.

By Jane on November 8, 2009
These are the moments to treasure. I was just taken aback by how lovely my Thelma looked on this morning after she woke up. So innocent and peaceful. I hope she will always be this way.

Thelma cleans the bathroom. No, this is not another Cinderella Story.
By Jane on January 18, 2010
My lovely Thelma thought she would help her Mommy out and clean the bathroom. No, I did not force her…She totally did this out of her own will and the goodness of her sweet little heart. Actually, I wasn’t supposed to see any of this. Thelma wanted to surprise me. Thelma is wearing a vintage dress from [...]

By Jane on November 2, 2009
So Dick and I haven’t been out in months. We’re just too busy and we enjoy time at home with our girls or playing ping pong. This year, Halloween fell on a Saturday so I was thinking of having a Halloween party at my house. But, like I said, we’re super busy and I just [...]

So many socks, so little matches…annoying.
By Jane on February 12, 2010
I don’t understand how we could have so many socks… And come up with still SO MANY without matches. Yes, these are ALL DIFFERENT. I hate it when I don’t have the matching pair to socks. -Jane, Non-Fan of Non-Matching Socks

Garden Show: Blooms Day for Mother’s Day.
By Jane on May 13, 2011
One of my favorite things to do with my Mom is to go to Garden Shows together so it was really nice to be able to go to our local Blooms Day for Mother’s Day. Both my dad, Freddie Mac, and Dick opted out of this one. Go figure. The Garden Show is held on [...]

Early Maternity Wear: Sporty Maternity and layering clothes at 4 months.
By Jane on December 29, 2010
Being around 4 months pregnant, I kinda still fit in some of my clothes. Kinda. Being in that in-between stage where one does not yet look fully pregnant and is thicker in the middle than usual makes it difficult to find clothes to wear. I want to be able to use whatever clothes I have [...]

Giving our guests the bike tour: Movies, Starbucks, Greenway.
By Jane on March 23, 2011
The weather was perfect for biking so we decided to give our guests the bike tour, as we do with many of our guests. Like when Lucy went with Oscar, or when I went biking in my 4-inch heels, or when we went with the cousins around the suburbs or to get some burgers. Luckily, with [...]

By Jane on January 19, 2010
My favorite ice cream is Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia. It’s so perfect with bits of chocolate chips and red cherries. YYUUUUMMM! Well, I made Dick go for a late night run for some the other night. No, I’m not pregnant. I just really wanted some Cherry Garcia! Dick obviously wanted some too otherwise he [...]

Thelma and Louise: Bjork Doo and Bubbles
By Jane on November 28, 2009
Thelma and Louise are girly girls and love to play with their hair. They found these curlers and had me put them on. I love the Bjork look girls. Not sure why but Louise was keeping her eyes shut on purpose while I was taking pictures. DONNING THE BJORK

By Jane on February 12, 2011
Louise loves art and had seen my sketches of the stick figures I draw laying around. So, she took it upon herself to try to copy my drawings. Here’s what she came up with: She did so good! I love her adorable stick figures! Here’s the comparisons: She also did a few of her own, this [...]

These heels were not made for walking. They were made for BIKING.
By Jane on May 27, 2010
Over the weekend, Dick and I decided to take J Lo out for some drinks. We picked the Wild Wings Cafe because it has a great outdoor patio/bar area overlooking a pond and the weather is just SPECTACULAR and perfect for chilling outside. Parking is a bitch at this place (see all the cars wrapped [...]

Sade’s New Video: Babyfather. Just the nostalgia I was talking about!
By Jane on May 6, 2010
Yet another great video introduced by my beloved Perez. It’s SADE’S new video for her latest release, Babyfather. The song is SPECTACULAR! Before this Album, Soldier of Love, Sade had not released an album since her hit, Lovers Rock. I loved this album! Sade’s voice is EFFORTLESS, SOOTHING and ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. The video is also [...]

Our first trip to the mountains this summer.
By Jane on June 3, 2010
Every year since I was a kid, we go the mountains during the summer for some FAMILY FUN. Our tradition is that we go to the same spot, pack lunch and just CHILL. My parents, Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac, usually go with us and they always have the MOST FABULOUS lunch ready for us. [...]

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.” [...]

I’m hanging out with my dear sister at her place. She invited me over for dinner and would like for me to cook her some Persian food. I decide to make a Chicken Spinach dish (Aloo Esfinage only without Aloo). We’re all starving because it’s already dinner time and we’re just getting started. I declare [...]

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. [...]
