I spotted this pimp car the other day. A green Toyota Celica, suited up with a great body kit. You almost can’t even tell it’s a Celica. Nice!! -Jane, Sports Car Fan.

PAINTING FRENZIE: The front porch gets an uplift too.
By Jane on May 11, 2010
It’s spring and since it’s still somewhat nice outside and not too hot, I like to do some work around the house. Not only did the back porch need some lovin’, the front porch does too! See where I went pressure-washer crazy?

Back to Metropolis and back to my regular Starbucks.
By Jane on September 9, 2011
So we’re back in Metropolis and where else are we going to go but my regular Starbucks. Every morning Julia goes for a walk and comes back so we can go have coffee. It’s still early morning (early for me) so it’s nice and cool…so we decided to walk. The girls haven’t ridden their bikes [...]

One of my favorite cars is the Porsche 911, especially the older model ones. I came across one yesterday…a beautiful, silver, newer model, but with some of my personal touches. Green is one of my favorite colors so I think Porsche should consider this lovely shade of green…let’s call it “Green with Envy”. It would [...]

Jane: Post Partum Nester and Closet Organizer.
By Jane on June 18, 2011
Since I was just taking things in stride prior to the birth of Benz, I didn’t really get a chance to nest much. Therefore, after he came the clutter in Dick and my closets were annoying the crap out of me. Here’s a glimpse of Dick’s closet. Our house is an older house so we [...]

Grocery shopping with a baby carrier.
By Jane on July 6, 2011
I had forgotten how going grocery shopping with a baby carrier leaves no room for actual groceries. You in there Benz??? I could use a baby carrier, as I’ve seen some women do, but the baby is asleep and I don’t want to wake him. I know I’m always talking about eating healthy but it [...]

Not a fan of spring mattresses, how about a futon mattress?
By Jane on December 29, 2010
The bed frames that we got for the girls are like platform beds where a box is not needed. Dick has a thing for futon mattresses and so wanted to get that particular kind for the girls since he believes they give you better support for your back. He hates spring mattresses. The girls were [...]

At the rate I’m going, and especially after nursing, I’m sure I’ll be needing a contraption similar to this. Which then reminds me of a song that my dear loving sister, Lucy Lu, adapted just for me. Some of you may know the song, Do your EARS Hang Low, the kiddie song. Except, where the word EARS [...]

Recycling things I already have to accessorize the room.
By Jane on March 9, 2010
Most of the stuff I’m using to accessorize is stuff I already have. Like on some of those decorating shows on HGTV (I love those!) I decide to use stuff that is around my house because I have plenty. You remember I painted the tray. The picture is of Dick’s late Grandmother. The candles came [...]

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 [...]
