It looks like a tomato or a mini-pumpkin but actually this sweet, crunchy fruit is well loved by Asians and Persians, especially my family. It’s fall and my parents’ Persimmon tree is full of Persimmons. One year, they had close to 500 of these orange beauties on ONE tree! Then we had a late frost [...]

The Best Chinese Buffet I’ve Ever Been To. Jane overindulges.
By Jane on April 1, 2010
Whilst in Gotham City, we go to the BEST CHINESE BUFFET I’ve ever been to. It’s HUGE, packed, and has everything! Inside there is one huge center bar and then 4-5 other bars lined up. We had to wait for about 30 minutes before we were seated because it was so crowded. I spot some [...]

Boursin Cheese and Mamma Mia starts off 2010 for us.
By Jane on January 1, 2010
It’s about 10:30 when we’re done eating our yummy sushi at Katsuya so we head to Lucy’s house to chill. We’re watching the countdown on CNN but I think it’s a replay of the dropping of the ball in NY’s Time Square. Whatever, it’s still almost midnight for us so we use it as our own West Coast [...]

By Jane on August 18, 2010
I’ve never been one to be mistaken for a celebrity until one day, this girl at a grocery store says to me: “Hey, you look like…like…that girl on TV…what’s her name?…” I’m clueless and just waiting for her to spit it out because no one has ever mistaken me for a celeb. “Oh! You look [...]

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 [...]

An attempt to meet my favorite blogger, Perez Hilton. No, I’m not a celebrity stalker!
By Jane on December 12, 2009
As I have mentioned, I have yet to meet a celebrity in person or even see any roaming around LA. So, I’m on the lookout for some celebrities while I’m in LA. I found out that my favorite pimp daddy blogger, Perez Hilton, was doing a book signing to promote his new book, True Bloggywood [...]

The girls are crazy about their daddy and whenever he travels, we all miss him dearly. The girls leave messages on his dry erase board to show how much they’ve missed him. They also know how to write their names in Persian. -Jane, Mommy to Thelma and Louise.

After the co-op, we rushed to bring Thelma to the training academy she attends. Louise and I decided to be out in the sun, rather than sit in the car and wait, so that we can get our Vitamin D and enjoy the beautiful weather. Kids never get sick of bubbles. And look, Louise found [...]

Thelma and Louise eating worms?
By Jane on November 11, 2010
Whenever I am lazy to cook and need something fast, I always check to see what kind of INSTANT RAMEN I have in my pantry. Today, we have Chapagetti. It’s a non-soupy, instant noodle that tastes like a black bean sauce. Very yummy! Image by www.homecookingdiary.com. (I threw away the packaging before I remembered to [...]

Going to ballet picnic but end up on paddleboats.
By Jane on April 21, 2010
The girls’ dance school was having a parent appreciation picnic at the park so the entire family headed to the park. There were hotdogs, drinks, popcorn and activities for the kids, like bowling, face painting, etc. We eat, hang out a little, then decided to walk around the park, let the kids play on the playground.

Article: “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”: Words from a militant mom who is full of crap.

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 [...]

I Hate Fucking Making the Juice!
By Jane on August 31, 2009
Recently I’ve reverted to dropping f-bombs like the old days of working in manufacturing car plants. Well, maybe not as bad as before, but I find great satisfaction in using this word to express myself. I know it’s considered vulgar and profane but it’s so FUCKING expressive. It gives just the uummph I want for emphasis!
