Jane stalks a LOTUS ELISE. What a sweet little sports car!
By Jane on April 28, 2010
The other day I was driving home and I spot this BEAUTIFUL SPORTS CAR. I didn’t know what it was so I tried to speed up so I could get a closer look at it. It’s a LOTUS. Of course, immediately I think ESPRIT, like the one in Back to the Future. The back is [...]

By Jane on September 26, 2009

So, for those young Persians who don’t know how to cook or for those who just want to try some Persian yumminess, here is a picture-filled [...]

The Paparazzi are hanging out at the Ken Pave Salon waiting for Jessica Simpson .
By Jane on January 8, 2010
We had just gotten back to Lucy’s house and there’s a huge crowd of paparazzi outside of Ken Pave’s Salon. I’m wondering who they’re waiting for but given that it’s Ken Pave, I’m assuming it’s either Eva Longoria or Jessica Simpson.

Attraction to others based on Survival.
By Jane on April 9, 2010
One night while we were over at my parents house, we were watching TV. We don’t have any channels at our house because: (1) We don’t have time to watch TV. (2) I would use it as a babysitter too much. (3) My kids would harass me constantly to buy every toy advertised. (4) I [...]

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 [...]

It is so true that when something goes wrong, everything goes wrong. What’s that law called? Mitch’s Law? Michael’s Law? I hate it when I can’t remember something I know I should know! It drives me crazy until I do remember…Oh yeah… Murphy’s Law!! It seems that Murphy has decided to make examples of us [...]

By Jane on July 1, 2011
It’s our first real swim meet of the season. The girls are excited because their best friends from Gotham City are here, you know…the ones where we had the meltdown in the parking lot?

Ancient Mystical Palace: Tomb of Tu Duc in Hue City.
By Jane on March 2, 2011
This tomb boasts one of the most intricate royal architecture from the Nguyen Dynasty, dating back to the mid-1800s. You may recognize the name NGUYEN…almost every Viet person has this difficult-to-pronounce-if-you’re-not-Vietnamese last name. Freddie Mac is so cute. What chu lookin at??? Great pic of my mom in between that arch. The weather was perfect [...]

Dinner at Katsuya Sushi on low key and fabulous New Year’s Eve.
By Jane on January 1, 2010
I have never really partied on New Year’s Eve. I always spend it at home, chillin. I think it’s because it’s cold and I really don’t want to venture out. Plus, with all the drunks out there, I would rather be with my family. As you can imagine, there’s tons to do in LA for [...]

Our first snow this year! It WAS a Winter Wonderland in Metropolis!
By Jane on December 5, 2009
Thankfully, Thelma and Louise got to see some snow today. They were starting to think it didn’t exist. Metropolis doesn’t snow often but it used to. Growing up, I remember the snow coming up to my knees…albeit, my knees were closer to the ground then. Still, we got snow and it was always SUPER exciting [...]
