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. [...]

By Jane on April 7, 2012
Despite less than a couple of months training, doing shots of tequila the night before, only 3 hours sleep and everyone’s doubts that he would not run…my Dick stayed focused, positive and determined that RAIN OR SHINE he was going to run and finish his first marathon in Los Angeles at 40 years old…and he [...]

After the modeling shoot, we stop to smell the fall air.
By Jane on November 7, 2010
After the modeling shoot, the girls discover that there is a scenic area with pond with walking path. “Mommy, can we go check out the pond?” My first inclination is to say NO because it’s cold and I thought about ALL the things I still needed to get done since we spent a lot of [...]

Recipe: Pan Seared Red Snapper and Stripe Bass and Sauteed Snow Pea Leaves. (Ca Chien)
By Jane on March 2, 2010
We just went shopping at our local Asian grocery store and bought some fresh fish. Now to cook it up! The fancy way to say how we’re preparing this is “pan searing” the fish. Basically, we’re frying it in a pan. In Vietnamese, fried fish is called “Ca Chien” and it’s quite simple. I picked [...]

The cold Pacific water of Santa Monica Beach and fun in the sand.
By Jane on March 15, 2012
Our first full day in LA and we hit the beach. Mostly we hit the beach because Dick ran from Lucy’s house in West Hollywood, took Santa Monica Blvd all the way to Santa Monica Beach and then wanted me to meet him there because he wouldn’t want to run back home. It was a [...]

How to keep your mobile baby safe at the pool. Just plop him thru a lounge chair!
By Jane on April 24, 2012
The girls love to swim so when Prince Abubu said that his apartment had a pool, the girls were all about going. Since he lives not too far from Lucy’s, we decided to walk there. The pool is at the TOP of his building. With a great view of LA. I hate it when the [...]

We check out of the Hotel Carmel in Santa Monica but before we left, I asked the Concierge, “Where’s the closest busstop and which bus do we need to take to get to West Hollywood.” The gentleman didn’t know but asked the valet gentleman to assist me. He happened to be Latino so in his [...]

If you have not met Monk, you’re about to now. Dick gave Monk to Thelma a couple of years ago for Christmas. Bought from Justice Girls, she came hugging one of those comfy matching monkey flannel blankets. Monk is sassy and is one of the most traveled Monkey stuffed animals I know because Thelma just [...]

Jane refuses to be FORCED to pay the Smartphone data package and opts for a NON-SMART phone.
By Jane on March 14, 2011
So, I’ve had my LG phone for about 2 years now and I HATE it! The touch screen sucks and I fat finger and call random people all the time. Dick has been bugging me to get a new phone…imagine that! A husband who has to beg his wife to buy something new! Well, I [...]

I lose Dick’s keys and make PROPER use of Lucy’s “Apology” note pad she gave me.
By Jane on April 22, 2010
All day I’ve been pressure washing the deck, putting away stuff in the shed, cleaning, blowing leaves off the roof of the house, planting flowers…and in between all that, I lost Dick’s keys. (Because I went to get gas for my machines and didn’t put the keys back where they belong.) RUMMAGING THROUGH TRASH SUCKS [...]

Tall Caramel Macchiato, extra shot, in a for-here mug please?
By Jane on September 28, 2009
Today, at Starbucks, I didn’t distract myself with a book or crossword puzzle or cigarette like I usually do. I just sat there and enjoyed the view, happy to be out of the confines of my house, breathing the fresh air and away from the memories of illness that has plagued us lately.
