Yes, it’s that time of the year where my body decides it needs to pack on about ten more pounds (Hopefully that’s it!) in order to stay warm in the winter. Hibernation mode like the bears, ya know. Actually, it started last month…right around Halloween, surprise surprise. I realized this seasonal pattern a few years [...]

Thundershowers keep me stranded at the Starbucks.
By Jane on August 13, 2010
I know, tough life right? Stranded at the Starbucks. Don’t be hatin’ cause I be chillin’! With all that we do and all that we got goin’ on, this is one of my simple pleasures in life. Gots to keep Momma happy…cause EVERYBODY knows… IF MOMMA AIN’T HAPPY…AIN’T NOBODY HAPPY!! And if you don’t know [...]

Sometimes a tom boy but still a princess at heart. Thelma was cleaning up her room and well, it needed it! I guess dressing up makes cleaning more fun. She looks just absolutely radiant in this dress. More pics below…

Fulfilling my bet with Thelma: Camping in the Minivan
By Jane on September 16, 2009
Thelma made a bet with me that if she was able to fast and abstain from eating for a day, I would then camp out in the car with her overnight, in our yard. This is not something I’m too excited about doing and I thought hoped maybe she would forget about it but alas, [...]

If you have allergies or are prone to stuffy noses, try the Neti Pot.
By Jane on February 4, 2011
As you know, I’ve been plagued with Rhinitis (aka Stuffy Nose) but it has since gotten better in the second semester (thank the Lord!). Winter time and one is also more prone to stuffy or runny noses, sinuses, congestion, etc. One thing that helps immensely is the NETI POT. You may have seen it promoted [...]

Jane: Almost a FOOL but not quite!
By Jane on April 1, 2010
Yes, my birthday is shy of April Fools by one day. Therefore, this Jane is ALMOST a fool but NOT QUITE. Except, it’s possible I am quite GULLIBLE. My cousin sent me a text this morning: “Surprisingly, I’m getting engaged with my best friend from high school around August. We will send the invitations around [...]

Biking and Hill-Climbing Preggar.
By Jane on January 21, 2011
The other day, we were blessed with unseasonable warm weather for this time of the year so we decided to take our bikes out and enjoy it! Plus, we had to go get some groceries. The hill next to our house was still iced over in parts so we had to be super careful. Dick’s [...]

I have been DUPED!! So this is what crack is like.
By Jane on December 3, 2009
I recently ran out of my favorite mushroom seasoning that is an MSG substitute. Although MSG makes everything takes SUPER yummy, it’s been linked to cause cancer and is not good for you. I love this mushroom seasoning and put it in almost everything.

Two of my favorite things and in combination: Louise Skipping and Cherry Blossoms.
By Jane on April 9, 2010
Louise and I were admiring our CHERRY TREE that is in FULL BLOSSOM. We thought we would enjoy it a bit since this will probably only last a few days.

Not your every day Jeep. Gun included.
By Jane on September 6, 2010
While coming out of the grocery store, I see this in the parking lot. I wonder if they get tickets for not wearing a seat belt. And what’s this? Are you sure that little tie thing is going to be sufficient? Why not just put a sign on it that says TAKE ME. -Jane. Just [...]

Queen Latifa in all her GLORY. Queenie is not going to be happy with me. Thank goodness she’s not technically inclined and doesn’t navigate to my blog. Crack runs in the family. -Jane, Niece to Cracked-up Queenie.

Impromptu photo shoot while picking up Lucy at the airport for Labor Day.
By Jane on September 21, 2011
I’m so utterly behind on blogging that I’m just now posting our Labor Day weekend pics. This is me, waiting for dear sis to arrive at the airport. Today, I’m donning my Princess Leia hair look. The girls always want to come with me to pick up their Auntie. Somehow we ended up getting there [...]

Roadkill: Graphic and Gross. Do not look if you have a weak stomach!!
By Jane on November 16, 2009
So, I’m driving back from my parents house and I see a dead skunk in the road. It always makes me sad to see dead animals that have been hit by cars on the street and I always try to remember to say a small prayer for them. But, it’s weird because any time I [...]

Life is extremely busy for us these days. I’m not sure if it’s good or bad but…it is what it is and we’re rolling with the punches. There’s never a dull moment, at least not for me. The girls may disagree but, whatever, kids are always complaining about being bored. Well, today was definitely not [...]

Teenage years are back, and not in a good way.
By Jane on July 29, 2010
Just when I thought the days of acne and zits were long behind me, a substantial one pops up on my face. It seems that around the same time I am possessed by the evil monthly demon, the demon rears its ugly little head, reminding me of what is to come. There’s nothing worse or [...]

Homemade chicken noodle soup to stay warm in this cold weather.
By Jane on January 16, 2010
My kids love chicken noodle soup, especially when it’s cold. You don’t need a ton of ingredients and can easily throw it together. This time, I just used what I had. Since I had some chicken thighs in the fridge, I used that to make the broth. It’s fattier, but unfortunately, that’s the fat that makes it tasty.

The girls make sweet potato casserole and apple pie!
By Jane on November 27, 2011
The girls wanted to help cook this year. Louise wanted to make the Sweet Potato Casserole. And Thelma was making an apple pie for my girl June Cleaver and her kids. Thelma and Louise learned how to make apple pie in their co-op cooking class. Louise was then done with her sweet potato casserole so she [...]
