If you’re looking for something healthy to eat, then look no more. Everything below is cooked in the oven (minus the salad) so it’s not FRIED. Here is my recipe and directions for making Steelhead Trout, sweet potato fries accompanied with a salad and brown rice. Remember, I do not include amounts as I do [...]

Ewwww Pink! Going through a tomboy phase.
By Jane on September 19, 2010
We’re going through a tomboy phase where PINK is no longer favored. These days, I often hear: “That’s too girly Mommy!” So I guess we’re into the “tough chick” mode…especially Thelma. I’m not sure I can even get them in a dress or skirt. Kids and their phases. I guess I have mine too. Whatevs, [...]

Lucy: Sous Chef. We’re making a Persian Chicken Spinach Dish.
By Jane on December 18, 2009
I’m hanging out with my dear sister at her place. She invited me over for dinner and would like for me to cook her some Persian food. I decide to make a Chicken Spinach dish (Aloo Esfinage only without Aloo). We’re all starving because it’s already dinner time and we’re just getting started. I declare [...]

Adult Halloween Time: We’re going out!!
By Jane on November 2, 2009
So Dick and I haven’t been out in months. We’re just too busy and we enjoy time at home with our girls or playing ping pong. This year, Halloween fell on a Saturday so I was thinking of having a Halloween party at my house. But, like I said, we’re super busy and I just [...]

Some added PIZZAZZ: More Custom wall painting
By Jane on March 11, 2010
In addition to painting the walls, I also wanted to add something “extra”. I went online and found some inspiration for the room. The flowers are just beautiful. I love the colors but decide to replicate it in a simpler form. I pencil the drawing on the wall first. This is where the bulk of [...]

Starbucks Moment: Mommy needs her ME-TIME!!
By Jane on July 23, 2011
This Jane is in need of some serious ME-TIME. I’m not the kind of person that can’t be alone. I love my time ALONE. Some people feel like losers sitting alone at a table. I know I used to. Especially if you’re in high school and you’re sitting somewhere alone…you’re a loser. No, these days, [...]

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, [...]

The Motor City, the border, kilometers versus miles…and finally, Toronto.
By Jane on July 7, 2010
We’re in the Motor City! Home of the Pistons! And my old place of employment, where I lived some 9 or 10 years ago, working for Ford Motor Company. This is a picture of one of Ford’s plants but I didn’t work here. I worked in the offices close to headquarters. After traveling around for a [...]

3-D Ultrasound! Meet our little alien sea monkey.
By Jane on December 9, 2010
The last time I went through the pregnancy process, 3-D Ultrasounds were a novelty and not many doctor’s offices had them. It took me a while to get around to finding a doctor but I finally got an appointment and the girls wanted to tag along. I made them bring their school work in case [...]

Jane and Dick celebrate 15 years together! How we met and how I hit the “jackpot”.
By Jane on February 3, 2011
Fifteen years ago, I meet Dick at an International Party at a nightclub. Yes, a nightclub. I broke at least one if not several of “The Rules” from that dating book written by Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider by accepting to go on a date with him the very next day. Plus, I’m pretty sure [...]

Sarah Palin to run for President? God help us all…
By Jane on February 8, 2010
In a recent interview on Fox News (surprise surprise), Sarah Palin said that she would consider running for President in 2012. WHAT?!?!?! I think it’s absurd and ridiculous that this rinky-dink Former Alaskan Governor think she can be our President. She didn’t even know where the hell Russia is. I mean, I’m not that great [...]

SPRING IS HERE! Using Fanny Mae’s fresh flowers to decorate and liven up my house.
By Jane on March 20, 2011
Since SPRING is HERE (Officially on March 21st) and we have guests coming from out of town coming to visit (nothing like having guests to make you want to clean), I go raid my mom’s garden for some fresh flowers to decorate the house. Now, it’s time to arrange them. Flower arranging is a Japanese [...]

Jihad Jane? Definitely a case of mistaken identity here.
By Jane on March 10, 2010
Apparently this JANE was conspiring with terrorists and was hired to kill that controversial Swedish political cartoonist Lars Vilks. JIHAD JANE. I don’t know anything about him or her but reading “Jihad Jane” on CNN.com completely caught my eye. Click HERE for the full story. -Jane, Not Jihad Jane.

The girls are at the age where doing dishes is now part of their chores.
By Jane on September 16, 2010
My lovely ladies were helping me out with the dishes the other day. They’re getting older and as such, I want them to start helping out. In addition to making their beds, cleaning up after themselves, setting the table and keeping the garage/classroom clean, dishes is now also a part of their chores. Since Dick and [...]

Our tribute to Sunday Dim Sum Brunch
By Jane on October 4, 2009
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 [...]

So now that you know our plans to have a natural child birth, you’ll understand our thought process when it came time. As I mentioned, when I hit 36 weeks my OB started to talk to me about the possibility of induction, even though she knew I really wanted to have a natural child birth. [...]

Boursin Cheese and Mamma Mia starts off 2010 for us.
By Jane on January 1, 2010
It’s about 10:30 when we’re done eating our yummy sushi at Katsuya so we head to Lucy’s house to chill. We’re watching the countdown on CNN but I think it’s a replay of the dropping of the ball in NY’s Time Square. Whatever, it’s still almost midnight for us so we use it as our own West Coast [...]

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 [...]
