For some reason, kids just have this inherent need to have pets. They just want to take care of something and call it their own. Like most kids, my kids wanted to be the parents of their own puppy. Fanny Mae had bought an adorable little Pekingnese for herself, so when my mom brought the [...]

Dear Santa. I hope you “egxist”.
By Jane on December 26, 2010
Louise is very inquisitive and very smart. She’s very logical and thinks in detail and again, this year I was posed with the question “Is Santa real?”. I was already faced with this question last year (Click HERE for that post.) Oh the dilemma! Again, I responded this year with “Well, I’m not sure honey. [...]

Just an average day in the life of Jane and Dick.
By Jane on October 7, 2009
Our days are not like most people’s. We don’t have 9-5 jobs. We don’t send our kids to school. So, here’s a glimpse into a day in the life of Jane and Dick. Every day is different, which makes for a less boring, less monotonous life. We started our day at 11:15am this particular morning [...]
Daddy combing baby Benz’s hair. Really???
By Jane on January 29, 2012
Dick was going to take Benz for a short walk around the block using the Baby Bjorn. Prior to leaving and being the pretty boy that he is, he stopped by the bathroom to make sure he was looking good now that he has an added accessory…our son. I then glance over and see Dick [...]

I get a loaner while getting a car inspected. Testing out the Lexus IS250!!!
By Jane on April 25, 2011
The other day I had to take a Lexus in to get a 46-point inspection done on it. Not having the time to wait around for it, I asked Lexus to give me a loaner…and boy did they! Lexus gave me a choice of either a RX (the small SUV) or the ES (mid-size sedan) or [...]

The “Other” dish that Dick can cook: Meat-Sauce Spaghetti with Baby Bella Mushrooms.
By Jane on November 19, 2009
We’re trying to figure out what to eat (as almost every night) and decide we haven’t had spaghetti in a while. I actually make a very good spaghetti but since this is the OTHER dish that Dick is good at making (Click HERE for the pan-seared Kabob recipe), I let him do the honors. I [...]

My parents invest in a plot of land and we get to reap the benefits of the amenities.
By Jane on July 16, 2011
Without even knowing how to play golf or even having an interest in it, my parents recently bought a piece of land at a golf community that is about 30 minutes away from us. No, they’re not planning on retiring or building a house here…its strictly an investment. But, even though we don’t have a [...]

Thelma and Mommy Alone Time: Biking to Pier 1 and Starbucks.
By Jane on February 17, 2011
Lately, Thelma and I don’t get to spend that much time alone. Her and Dick have alot in common and tend to gravitate toward each other. However, she’s still my baby and I thought we could use some ALONE TIME together. So, we decided to go hang out while Dick and Louise went for a [...]

By Jane on January 5, 2011

Except, getting that messy look takes work! Here’s my version of how to get that look. WHAT YOU NEED What you’re going to need is [...]

Request for the Hubby to do the dishes…
By Jane on September 12, 2010
After I made dinner last night and after we ate it, it was quite the disaster area, like usual. We were watching a movie so I didn’t realize how much of a disaster until I came back into the kitchen later. Ugh. Not wanting to have to do them, I mentioned it to Dick, in [...]

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 [...]

An unconventional Christmas Day spent at Santa Monica Beach.
By Jane on December 27, 2009
We spent Christmas Day this year chillin’ at Santa Monica Beach. Somehow it doesn’t really feel like Christmas when you’re at the beach on a sunny day and its about 60F.

Ludacris’ “My Chick Bad” is ridiculously STUPID!
By Jane on April 17, 2010
I was riding in my car the other day, listening to the radio and Luda’s song “My Chick Bad” came on. And while I SOMEWHAT like his other latest hit “How Low”, “My Chick Bad” is the MOST RIDICULOUSLY STUPID SONG! It ranks right up there with “Bed Rock” – “I, I, I can make [...]

Biking to Five Guys for some burgers.
By Jane on October 13, 2010
Another beautiful day and we are going to SEIZE it! Actually, we’re hungry and decided to bike out back to our fave burger joint, FIVE GUYS burgers. We get sidetracked for a second when the girls decide they want to go inside the pet store to see if there are any puppies. Sorry, no puppies [...]

Enjoying Nature: A picnic by the river in the mountains.
By Jane on September 26, 2009
Every summer we go to the mountains to chill by the river and enjoy the beautiful nature that we have access to. We unplug ourselves for the day since there’s no TV, computers, or cell phone reception. This year, we’ve been so busy that the girls and I have made a few trips with [...]

Dick and I just happened to be at the Country Line Dancing Club for a short drink. While we were watching everyone dance, I caught sight of one white boy man who totally surprised the hell out of me with his awesome moves. I was surprised, I guess, cause I was judging him and based [...]

People camping out at the mall for iPad 2.
By Jane on March 14, 2011
While at the mall the other, I notice some people sitting outside the Apple Store. They were camping out for the iPad 2. The only time I ever camped out for anything was for New Kids on the Block tickets…but really, it was just to hang out with my friends and was something to do. [...]
