We love to eat Dim Sum but there are no restaurants that have this in our area. So, I have the next best thing. Frozen dumplings. So, I whipped up these fried vegetarian leek gyoza for our Sunday “brunch”. It’s fast, you just follow the directions on the bag, and voila! Serve with some sauce [...]

Surprise visit on my birthday.
By Jane on April 10, 2011
I’m 36 this year. Not a major milestone. And, with me being pregnant this year, no dress-up party like last year. Remember mine and June’s joint birthday bash… Pimps N’ Ho’s? I just wasn’t feelin’ it this year and just wanted to chill with my family. My birthday started out with Dick and the girls making [...]

Backtracking a bit to Benz’s 4-month doctor visit.
By Jane on October 27, 2011
Benz is now 5-months old but, since I’m so behind on blogging, let’s backtrack to his 4-month doctor visit. Dick is in town and wants to come with us to the Doctor’s office. Such twins, ey? So, like many things we do…it’s a family affair. Thelma even brought her school stuff along. Such good girls [...]

No, it’s not one of Michael Jackson’s kids. It’s Thelma in a mask.
By Jane on November 4, 2009
This is a mask Lucy Lu gave me to wear for my Goth birthday party. Thelma is going to be using it for her costume for her skating competition coming up. She liked it so much she decided she was going to wear it out while we’re running errands.

Lucy and I look for the perfect short and fat Christmas tree.
By Jane on December 3, 2011
We usually do Christmas at my mom’s house so the Christmas tree goes over there. Every year, it’s Lucy and I who go shopping for the tree. Don’t let the picture fool you into thinking Lucy is taller than me…Lucy is sporting 3″ heeled boots. In actuality, she’s one inch SHORTER than me, even though [...]

Remember our little alien sea monkey? Well, it’s grown a little since then. Our latest ultrasound…and 4-D this time. Last time I went in, the technician couldn’t get a good shot but this time, we were more lucky. Although I’m not really sure what the difference between 3-D and 4-D is…even still, it’s WAY better [...]

Fine, compromise mother f****r. U happy now?
By Jane on June 17, 2010
If you’ve noticed that I have gone back and put a bunch of asterisks in between words like f**k and f*****g or mother f*****r in recent stories, it’s because my dear husband, who loves to read about himself, does not like to be referred to in this manner. I told him that’s they way I [...]

CLOSET CLEANSING: Getting rid of bad CHI and organizing the kids closet!
By Jane on November 9, 2010
It seems every couple of months, we have to go through a CLOSET CLEANSING. This time it’s for the kids’ closet. As you know, I can’t stand a chaotic mess so I make the girls clean out their closet. They’re complaining of not having enough space so we also decide to get rid of anything [...]

Robert Downey Jr in Sherlock. Super Sexy.
By Jane on December 19, 2009
A bus in LA pulled up next to me and oh what a happy surprise that was…a lovely ad for Robert Downey Jr.’s new movie, Sherlock Holmes. Um…cam we say YUMMY! He has a tinge of Hugh Jackman in this picture.

I see one of my ads at a rest area, of all places.
By Jane on August 14, 2010
On our four-hour drive home from Gotham City, it was almost midnight and time for a potty break. We stop at the next rest area. It’s one we’ve been to many times. We do our thang and then Thelma wants to look around. She goes ahead of me into the next room that has all [...]

Jane schools some boys in ping pong and gets a marriage proposal too.
By Jane on June 19, 2010
The other night, my cousins and I decide to go to the local sports bar since it was Ladies Night. You may or may not know that I love to shoot pool. It’s one of my favorite pastimes. I started playing in high school, used to skip class in college to go play (A couple [...]

Your daily Benz: Sleeping Beauty.
By Jane on June 14, 2011
My little man is changing daily and I’m just barely keeping up with all the pictures. I love taking pictures of babies when they’re sleeping. There are so many facial expressions and positions…it just never gets old. And, depending on the angle the picture is taken, Benz can look so different in each picture. Sometimes [...]

I just tried this for the first time the other day…Fried Pickles. Actually, it’s really good. If you like pickles at all and if you like fried food, then you need to try this! -Jane, New Fan of Fried Pickles

I was at Starbucks the other day with June and ran into a good friend of Dick’s, VINNY. Dick has known him from 15+ years ago. I used to run into him here all the time but it looks like he takes his coffee to go now. A super funny Persian guy in his 40s who [...]

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 [...]

As I have mentioned before, Lucy and I are pretty silly and have our own accent/language. We find humor in the play of words. We’re stuck in LA traffic – surprise surprise – and want to turn left. In LA, it is extremely common if not expected that if you are turning left with the [...]

Jane finally pops! Our baby has arrived!
By Jane on May 19, 2011
Introducing our new SON!!! I can’t tell you how over the moon we are that he has finally arrived. And because our family can’t do anything the “normal” way, it’s quite a story (to come). But first, I thought you would like to see him. At 6lbs 4 oz, 19 inches long and coming about [...]

We head to the public market…where the funnel cakes and hot dogs is all that catches my attention.
By Jane on August 17, 2011
During coffee with Lucy (and watching her super brilliant Oscar get his momma to give him a treat even if he didn’t have to obey her command…that was genius.) I had remembered that my mom told me they had taken an old run down mall and turned it into a public market but I couldn’t [...]

Ladies Night at the Sports Bar never ceases to disappoint.
By Jane on August 24, 2010
June and I hit LADIES NIGHT at the local sports bar again and this time, we bring Eminem out with us so I can properly SCHOOL him in ping pong in public. Dick actually would love to join us but due to his injury, he’s not quite that mobile yet. The table is open and [...]
