Because I still have some chalkboard paint left, I decided to paint the garage door of our “multipurpose room” with it. It’s white and boring and ugly. I outline the edges with a thin brush.

“Tiger” Mom’s article still causing an uproar.
By Jane on January 21, 2011
I came across a great article written by a Chinese/Vietnamese man , Mr. Lac Su, who had “Tigers” for parents. “Tigers” being what Ms. Amy Chua calls herself and her tactics on raising “successful” children. Mr. Su is a psychologist and business executive and despite being seemingly “successful”, explains how years of abuse and strictness affected [...]

We take the kids to see the latest Karate Kid flick with Will Smith’s son, JADEN, and JACKIE CHAN. The girls have already see the originals and LOVED them. The latest rendition was actually decent and Jaden was surprisingly a very good actor! Of course, the storyline was completely predictable and almost exactly like the [...]

Enjoying Nature: A picnic by the river in the mountains.
By Jane on September 26, 2009
Every summer we go to the mountains to chill by the river and enjoy the beautiful nature that we have access to. We unplug ourselves for the day since there’s no TV, computers, or cell phone reception. This year, we’ve been so busy that the girls and I have made a few trips with [...]

If you’ve never tried Lenny’s Subs, you really MUST. It’s so deliciously yummy. I don’t really even know why…it’s so simple yet I absolultely crave a good Lenny’s Sub. However, when I’m too lazy to leave my bubble and head to the nearest Lenny’s, I make my own version of it at home. Using a [...]

Amidst rumors of a threesome with a prostitute, Beckham suing mad and “charitable”. I smell a spin.
By Jane on September 29, 2010
So I was on Perez (surprise, surprise) and the most recent story is: “Money From Beckham Prostitute-Lawsuit Will Go To Charity” If you didn’t know, Becks, being the HAWTNESS that he is (and only when he DOESN’T speak), is recently rumored to have had a THREESOME with a PROSTITUTE (Irma Nici). Of course, he’s TOTALLY [...]

Mother’s Day Start: Breakfast at McD’s and a Flat Tire.
By Jane on May 12, 2011
Mother’s Day started off with breakfast with my girls. Mommy was craving some McDonald’s…which would come as a surprise to those who know me but pregnancy just brings about the incredible need for JUNK! Dick was still in bed so I took the girls and we headed to McD’s for breakfast. (In Dick’s defense, he [...]

Stomachs are hurting BIG TIME but Louise and I refuse to do #2 in public.
By Jane on June 22, 2010
After Louise’s shoot is done, we are heading home…it’s two hours remember? We had just been on the road for about half an hour when my stomach started hurting and starts to gurgle. You know the kind where you’re like “Hmmmm…not good.” It’s the kind of gurgle that one gets when THE RUNS (A.k.a. Diarhea) is [...]

Every once in a while, I like to go to the auction to check out the cars. Dick usually does it but I like to see what’s there and test drive them. I thought that Eminem, being a young man, would enjoy seeing all the different cars. He did. AUDI When we check out cars, [...]

Red wine, dark chocolate, and a fireplace…ahhhhhhh.
By Jane on October 18, 2009
It was a SUPER cold day in Metropolis. Cold weather makes me want to hibernate and I’m less apt to leave my house to go anywhere. Therefore, when one is hibernating, make sure to have some good red wine, some semi-sweet dark chocolate, and a warm, cozy fireplace. Cuddle with a book or your loved [...]

With having had a new baby, I decided we would take it easy over the summer and so only one sport…SWIMMING. And although last year was our first year on the swim team, we missed quite a few practices due to the burn that Thelma got but we also took time off to go to [...]

The family gets paid to spend a day on the lake for a Bayliner Boat shoot.
By Jane on August 11, 2011
Our family was fortunate enough to be selected to do a shoot for Bayliner, the boat company. I guess they liked our family’s International look. Except, poor Benz is too small to be on a boat so I had to make arrangements for him to stay home. Luckily, as I may have mentioned, my parents [...]

Summer may be over but I just got the greatest new dress and I plan on wearing it to the max! This dress gets the CCC (Triple C) rating – chic, comfortable, and CHEAPY! Take from the racks at Ross, the Bohemian style and pattern totally caught my eye. Just my style.
Ross’s is like TJ Maxx where you have to really look through all the racks and if you find something you like in your size, you better get it or someone else will! Imagine my surprise to find out that this small dress is actually an X-large. Yes, X-large!! This hurts the ego but I decided to try it on anyway. Come to find out,BIGGER is sometimes BETTER! It was a super cute DAINTY summer dress.

Translations from Aussie to American English.
By Jane on April 15, 2010
Whilst (Aussies say this alot, which is where Lucy picked it up from when she lived in Melbourne and has permeated into this Jane’s vocabulary.) my cousin was here visiting us from Australia, it was difficult understanding her at times. Not because of her accent, which is supercool, but because they have their own vocabulary! [...]
