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, [...]

Jane has no qualms about child labor. Everyone helps clean the house!
By Jane on August 23, 2011
We had spent our first night at Mr. Bean’s house so the kids could play. The next day, it was time to get to work on our rental property. The first thing we always do when we stay at one of our properties is give it a good cleaning. I don’t like to stay where other [...]

Birthday anticipation started months and months ago but just kicked into high gear.
By Jane on December 1, 2009
The girls always talk about what they will do for their birthdays sometimes almost 6 months in advance but when it gets down to the last 2 months, the anticipation is high. They start asking how many days until their birthday and planning every detail of it. This year…I want a pinata. This year…I’m inviting [...]

We venture out of our bubble and head to the MALL…it’s only been two years!
By Jane on March 7, 2011
I never go to the mall because everything I NEED is at the back of my house. So, I hardly ever leave “the bubble” and the mall is OUTSIDE “the bubble”. Plus, there’s nothing I NEED at the mall. Lots of stuff I WANT but not really NEED. And, if I am actually allow for time to spend at [...]

We woke up early morning in order to hit the road to head to Gotham City. The girls brushed their teeth. We packed up the car and we was OUT! Along the way, we stopped for breakfast at none other than Waffle House. Don’t let our International looks fool you, we are totally Southerners at [...]

Using our fire pit to make Chelo Kabob the old school way…
By Jane on March 21, 2011
This time of the year is perfect for a fire pit at night so we’ve been enjoying a warm fire in the crisp evenings. Last night, we were craving Chelo Koobideh (ground beef) Kabob, one of the staples of Persian food. The MEN decided they would use the fire pit to grill our kabobs the [...]

Ice covers Metropolis. Schools are out…well…not all of them.
By Jane on December 16, 2010
It’s been damn cold here in Metropolis. Last night, we just got covered with a blanket of ice. One of the great things about homeschooling is that if there is inclement weather, it makes no difference to us. My kids are quite dissaapointed by this. “What do you mean we’re still having school?” -Jane, Homeschool Mom.

In the Mountains: Memorial Weekend Fun.
By Jane on June 8, 2011
You remember every summer we head to the mountains with the family? We have been going every year since I was a kid…that makes for many, many years. I feel very fortunate that we are so close to one of the most visited national parks in the country. People come here to camp, to tube, [...]

Asian secret to strong, lush hair. Uh-huh.
By Jane on July 27, 2010
I came across this article titled: “The Asian secret to strong, lush hair.” and was intrigued. I’m Asian…what’s the secret? I didn’t realize we were holding back. Reading further, I discover what I already knew…there IS no secret! It’s GENETICS people! I have thick hair (I don’t know about luscious) and I don’t use OOKISA. [...]

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 [...]

Apparently, anyone can call a salad a “Greek” salad these days simply by adding some crumbled feta cheese on top and some olives. FETA CHEESE + LETTUCE + OLIVES = GREEK SALAD What’s really weird when you order a GREEK salad and then the guy behind the counter says… “Would you like Ranch or Italian [...]

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? First are warm-ups. This is before all the chaos starts. Swim meets are usually pretty crowded. You have the swimmers and [...]

Starbucks to change their logo and it’s UGLY. WTF?!?!?!
By Jane on January 6, 2011
So I was just browsing CNN.com and noticed that Starbucks was changing their logo. Check out the story HERE. So UGLY! I am not a fan. They need to keep the old logo. Seriously, did they use the same marketing company as the GAP? GAP got a huge backlash when they announced they were going [...]
