Dick and I finally took the girls to go see New Moon. All weekend they were asking when we would go. I have to admit, I was very slow to get on the Twilight bandwagon. When Twilight first came out, I thought it was some scary vampire movie. I don’t watch horror movies so I [...]

Mountain of Laundry = Housework = Insanity.
By Jane on August 28, 2010
I’m not sure how it got to this point…well, yes I do. I just haven’t done it. Folded them that is. They’re clean. I dislike doing laundry very much. And, I have no qualms about sending my family out in public in wrinkled clothes. I may be anal about other things…laundry is not one of [...]

Japanese Lunch Boxes: Presentation is key. Food Art for your tummy.
By Jane on October 23, 2010
My mom sends me tons of forwards….some get read, some don’t. This one was a cute one, full of pictures of Japanese lunch boxes. The Japanese are all about PRESENTATION and it shows! But, who has the kind of time to put something like this together! They’re like pieces of art. Food Art!

Our hill has become like a sledding snow resort attraction.
By Jane on January 11, 2011
Dick and I take the girls to go walking behind our house to where all the shops are and to enjoy all this snow. To get there, we always take that hill that is right next to our house. You’ve seen this hill many times before… It’s the one we ride our bikes down and [...]

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.

A clean kitchen and good wine is a must.
By Jane on October 12, 2009
Cooking when the kitchen is dirty is just not fun. I just emptied the dishwasher, put away more dirty dishes, cleaned off the counters, have my wine and NOW I’m ready to cook! Anyone else must start off with a clean slate before a new mess is made? -Jane, Must-be-Clean Cook

Jane’s Maternity Wear: Planned Parenthood.
By Jane on January 7, 2011
My sister Lucy came across this shirt and thought it to be PERFECT for me since it describes us oh so well. Planned Parenthood. That’s us! This is not a maternity shirt. She just bought it in a large. Looks and fits like Maternity though! James Perse makes the most comfortable, supersoft Tees. Although he [...]

My eclectic sister-in-law finds herself a beautiful African dress at Ross.
By Jane on September 10, 2011
After coffee, we stopped by Ross as we were walking home. My sister-in-law has a great eclectic style. She spots these African dresses and just loved them. She decides to try them on right there in the aisle instead of the changing room. Sometimes one is just too lazy to go to the changing room. [...]

By Jane on October 28, 2009
I have a friend who is working all over the world. I’m so jealous. I miss traveling the world. We worked together at Ford Motor about 10 years ago. Shit! It’s been that long??? This is a picture of us at a Pimps and Ho’s party that my friend had. (Hostess Ho). So Traveling Pimp [...]

Swine Flu: To Vaccinate or Not to Vaccinate?
By Jane on October 1, 2009
I just read that a new H1N1 flu vaccination is on its way to the public so am I in high anticipation like everyone else? I don’t know too many people who are excited to be getting a sharp needle in your arm, or leg, or anywhere else! Lucky for me that I don’t like [...]

GOODWILL FINDS: A BMX girl’s bike for Thelma!
By Jane on April 28, 2010
About a week ago, Thelma told me she wanted her next bike to be a BMX. Girlfriend is way FIERCE. She LOVES to bike. After she said, it, I just kinda threw it in the back of my mind thinking it would be a WHILE before she got a BMX! Then, the other day while [...]

Homemade Sushi: Jane’s Tunafish Rolls. Not the raw kind. The kids LOVE it!
By Jane on February 28, 2010
My kids love sushi. They’ll eat the raw pieces of fish too. But, we don’t do raw at home. Many years ago, one of my friends introduced me to Roasted Seasoned Seaweed. This stuff is DA BOMB! You can eat it plain or with rice…or with my homemade recipe for sushi at home. It’s easy, [...]

We interrupt the current broadcast to give you the most recent update on a large hail storm that just hit Metropolis. I know, I’m stepping out of chronological order but I had to post the pictures from this crazy hail storm that just hit us. Every day we get a sporadic thunderstorm but today’s was [...]

Rusty Candle: Random pics for your enjoyment.
By Jane on March 13, 2011
After wacking all that monkey grass, I sat on my back porch to rest a sec and noticed this candle holder I have left outside a long time ago. This used to be silver but I think I like the rusty look much better now. I decide to put this cream floating flower candle on [...]

Tiger Woods teacher holds press conference. Another FAME WHORE seeking their 15 minutes.
By Jane on April 3, 2010
Tiger’s former GRADE SCHOOL teacher gave a press conference the other day and is demanding an apology. Woman, you need to get off your high horse and stop trying to cash in on your 15 MINUTES OF FAME!
