I started dying my hair when I was in college. I HATED my original hair color and wanted look different so started coloring my hair. It’s been all kinds of crazy shades of black, brown, red, orange, and even blond highlights. Although I used to get it professionally done, this is extremely pricey for one [...]

KWICK KWOTE: Let’s Plant Some Flowers and Drink Some Wine
By Jane on April 4, 2010
Besides using the chalkboard paint in the girls room, I also used it on our pantry door…an ugly white eyesore. Originally when I thought to use the chalkboard paint, it was intended for this door. I wanted to be able to write grocery lists, our favorite wines list, maybe even homeschool while I’m cooking, writing [...]

I just adore my little booboo. And he’s even yummier when he’s sleeping. Such an angel. We’ve weened and moved on to the bottle. Organic rice milk. He loves it! I can’t believe he’s 10 months already. -Jane, Mommy to Sleeping Benz.

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 [...]

Persian, German, English Slow Song: “I can’t breathe.” Beautiful.
By Jane on December 9, 2009
This was a song sent to Dick from his cousin. The song “I can’t breathe” is by a German Band named Bruz where the lead singer is Persian. Actually, I don’t understand the song at all but you won’t need to in order to like the song. It’s a beautiful slow rap ballad with a [...]

Getting Out Tea Stains with Oxy Clean
By Jane on February 15, 2010
We’re Persian, so we drink a lot of Persian Black Tea. We like to drink it hot and iced. My container for the iced tea is stained pretty badly. But, it’s impossible to clean and is only getting worse. How do I scrub this out with a sponge? I’ve tried and it doesn’t work! OXY CLEAN [...]

Homemade Sushi: Jane’s Tunafish Rolls. Not the raw kind. The kids LOVE it!
By Jane on February 28, 2010
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, [...]

Your daily Benz: Sleeping with Mommy and Daddy.
By Jane on June 23, 2011
Because I’m the Mommy AND the photographer, I am doubly doomed not to get any pictures of me with the baby or me with my family at all for that matter…even though I am the one person who currently spends the most time with the baby. However, I’m torn because even though I want to [...]

Biking and Hill-Climbing Preggar.
By Jane on January 21, 2011
The other day, we were blessed with unseasonable warm weather for this time of the year so we decided to take our bikes out and enjoy it! Plus, we had to go get some groceries. The hill next to our house was still iced over in parts so we had to be super careful. Dick’s [...]

Family time at the park full of tangles, pedometers, and feet.
By Jane on June 11, 2010
We’re at the same park again. It’s the kids’ favorite. This time, we bring the whole family. Fanny Mae, Freddie Mac and Lucy Lu are all with us. Freddie Mac is enjoying to his iPod versus listening to Fanny Mae yammering on about how he talks too loudly when listening to his iPod and can’t [...]

It’s Friday! You ain’t got not job. You ain’t got shit to do.
By Jane on October 28, 2011
I’m so behind on blogging. Benz is now 5 months and I’ve still got stuff to write about that happened a month ago. Pregnancy and having children contribute greatly to my rapidly disappearing brain cells, whereby the count is drastically depleted with each additional child. That and, of course, aging. Pregnancy amnesia doesn’t go away [...]

Big boobs aren’t all that. I’m loving my new mosquito bites.
By Jane on October 2, 2009
There are some benefits to having had that dreadful SWINE FLU. It’s the all-new Swine Flu Diet! Great results! Surprised that I’ve lost about 5 pounds in the last week, I’ve hit an all time low of 113! This is pretty insane for me since I haven’t been this small since I was like 12. Now, [...]

Jane: Shooting a commercial for HGTV Fine Living.
By Jane on January 18, 2010
As I mentioned, occassionally, Dick and I and the girls do some small-time modeling/acting on the side. It’s fun and it’s really nice to unexpectedly get a check in the mail every now and then. I get a call last week from my agent saying that HGTV would like to use me for another Fine Living [...]

Blast to the Past: Speaking of Cousin MIA, we had quite a summer.
By Jane on February 16, 2011
Since I was thinking of MIA because she had sent my kids that great Mind Blowing Science Kit, I was going through my old posts of her and realized, we did quite a bit this summer! 1. We hung out with the fam and I took you to the Country Bar. 2. You left to travel [...]

We find a rodent in the shed. Opossum or Rat?
By Jane on November 8, 2010
DISCLAIMER: To start, down here, we call OPPOSSUMS just POSSUM and all future reference to this rodent will be referred to as such. I just didn’t want to confuse those who don’t know this from the onset with the title. So I was in the shed getting some trimmers for the hedges when I spotted what I thought [...]
