18 December 2009 By Jane 0 In Monk & Friends, Thelma & Louise
Three years ago we were blessed to have Monk join our family when Dick gave her to Thelma as a gift for her 5th birthday.
Thelma reminded us today by having us celebrate Monk’s birthday.
Um, we didn’t have a cake so I had to improvise. Watermelon it is…and healthy too!
Happy 3rd Birthday Monk!!
Looks like Thelma let Monk borrow the peace heart earrings that Louise gave her for her birthday. How sweet.

Babies and Doggies…Benz and Oscar’s forced photo shoot.
By Jane on September 26, 2011
One day Auntie Lucy was spending some time with her nephew Benz. Benz was quite happy and content to just hang with Auntie. However Aunt Lucy got this “brilliant” idea to try to take a picture of my baby with her baby. (Hmmm…Does that make them “cousins”?) She thought, what a great picture it would [...]

Thelma after she just woke up…
By Jane on November 8, 2009
These are the moments to treasure. I was just taken aback by how lovely my Thelma looked on this morning after she woke up. So innocent and peaceful. I hope she will always be this way. If you look closely, you can see she has a little beauty mole too just like her Mommy, except [...]

Jane and Dick Censored! Blocked in the UAE.
By Jane on December 21, 2010
I posted a video on You Tube last March when I had done a mini-makeover for the girls’ room. I had painted some flowers and butterflies, which took me ALL night and probably around 10-12 hours but I put the video in fast mode and shrank it down to a few minutes. Here’s the video [...]

Tryin on clothes at Kohls, boobie cleavage, and blockage in customer service.
By Jane on June 7, 2010
Lucy Lu, my dear sister is in town to visit. Good thing because I was all depressed about J Lo, Will and Carlton leaving us. Of course, I’ll be sad again when Lucy leaves but whatever, can’t think about that now. So, we go to Kohl’s because I need to return some swimming goggles that I [...]

One night, our family gets hungry and since we had nothing at home and I was too tired to cook, we decide to grab some dinner uptown. The girls want to go to Jason’s Deli, which is a new franchise that we love to go to and they offer all natural/organic ingredients in their food. [...]

Here comes the NEW GEEK SQUAD!
By Jane on April 25, 2010
We’re at BEST BUY and they, too, have gotten in on the CUSTOM BUGGY bandwagon. My kids love these cars and will snag one at every opportunity…even if we just need a couple of things that I can just as easily carry. However, Mommy gets suckered into pushing this heavy thing. I’m just wondering when they [...]

I saw this on one of my friend’s Facebook wall and found it QUITE amusing. A woman is standing in front of a mirror, nude, staring at herself and not liking what she’s seeing one bit. Turning this way and that, she says to her husband, “I feel fat, old, ugly and saggy, and I [...]

Potato Crusted Basmati Persian Rice with Saffron.
By Jane on February 21, 2011
Persians love a crispy crust (tadik) when they make their rice. Oftentimes, it is the MOST SOUGHT AFTER part of the rice. Now Persians use Basmati rice, which are long grains of fragrant white rice that don’t stick together like Asian Jasmine rice. Now it’s best to go to your local Middle Eastern or Indian [...]

As I have mentioned before, Lucy and I are pretty silly and have our own accent/language. We find humor in the play of words. We’re stuck in LA traffic – surprise surprise – and want to turn left. In LA, it is extremely common if not expected that if you are turning left with the [...]

We walk to Chinatown for some late eats with my Uncle Diddy: Star Athlete.
By Jane on July 21, 2010
After Eminem, MIA and I closed down Andy’s Pool Hall, we walked back to my Aunt’s place to find UNCLE DIDDY was still awake. DIDDY: THE STAR ATHLETE Back in the day, Uncle Diddy was a STAR ATHLETE in his youth and exceptionally good-looking for a Vietnamese boy. Most are short and he’s almost 6-feet…quite [...]

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 [...]

Louise gets called in to do another modeling job. The last job we did together as a family when we did the Bayliner Shoot but it’s been a year since Louise had a job by herself. Remember the Denktek flossers? I’m trying to figure out all the logistics because Dick is out of town, I [...]

Sorry for the sparse blogs. I’m not quite sure but I think having a third child is taking up all my time. Blogging seems to have taken a back seat to enjoying time with my new son, kids, husband and and taking care of our daily meals, clean-up, homeschooling, businesses, and Starbucks. With everything going [...]
