terri zollinger the brush story is soooo my daughter and i !! i was cracking up .and Uggs are the BEST !! thanks for sharing and for the smile. 12.02.09 - 2:10pm

Synda Funny...I was reading and thinking, wow...my daughter is a little Jasmine. She is just like you described yourself as a child. She is curious and strong willed which is hard for me sometimes but I know she will grow up to be a very cool, strong woman...just like you. She also LOVES her Uggs. 12.02.09 - 8:31am

cassandra m LOL...this made me remember my Mom brushing my hair so hard there were tears in my eyes...I always had the most tangles from running, but refused to cut my hair short. :)) 12.01.09 - 11:03pm

Rachel Jasmine, I read your blog everyday from Google reader so I don't ever post comments, but I just had to let you know that today you really did make me laugh out loud! The thought of your mother with the hairbrush just cracked me up. Especially since I'm dealing with a three year old with lots of questions. Thanks for all the smiles you give me throughout the weeks, but especially today. 12.01.09 - 4:20pm

Lauryn Galloway My friends little girl doesnt like brushing her teeth either. She is three and one night she said to her mom," Mrs. So and So(her preschool teacher) said that my teeth are going to fall out anyway." HA. Can you imagine? 12.01.09 - 3:52pm

Frances LOL!! I was the same way as a kid. Come to think of it, I'm still as inquisitive as ever but now my poor husband has to deal with all my questions. 12.01.09 - 9:32am

Trazanne Norwood This brought back such a rush of memories from my childhood, I nearly cried. Well every morning was a crying & screaming match when my mum brushed my hair anyway. I constantly got taps on the head. Maybe its a photographer thing as I was a "why" child also. Your blog always rocks! Tz 12.01.09 - 7:14am

Events by Evonne I love my UGG boots too! Can' wear them here on Maui, but I can't wait to pack them with me when I head out to San Francisco and Toronto to visit family next month! :) 12.01.09 - 5:58am

Sarina Love funny...i never even heard of cyber monday until today. I wonder who coined that term?! Great kiss and diss!! 12.01.09 - 5:06am

Cristina I subscribe to the `Turkey` part. I never understood it why americans cook with so joy on their faces that bird on thanksgiving. I am European, Eastern European to be more exact, and here, they cook pork on Christmas and lamb on Easter. As for me, I think that there is no blessed bird like the chicken, cuz` it tastes great and I love UGG too, in this world, there aren`t any goodlooking, comfortable boots than UGG. on my Honour! Sorry for your LCD, you will fix that soon. Bye 12.01.09 - 4:14am

Brian Fletcher In regards to UGG boots: as a man, I must say there is nothing hotter than UGG boots on a girl in jeans! :) 12.01.09 - 1:33am

Chris c. Uggs...my new love : ) I was not an Uggs girl before 2 months ago. I'm not trendy enough to wear what the 'youngsters' wear. Besides, they look like house shoes. UNTIL, my aunt introduced me to them. O...do they FEEEEL good. After trying them on, I had to have a pair. Thankfully, they now have dressier kinds that actually look like 'going out' shoes. Worth every penny! 11.30.09 - 11:14pm

Allison I can't agree more, Uggs are strait from heaven!! Cozy goodness that keep my feet warm and happy all winter! 11.30.09 - 11:13pm

Leyla Oh Jasmine... you always manage to make me laugh! I love the story, and the reason for you being as cool as you are today, is because you were a curious kid, which is awesome in my books. Your poor mommy was probably just having a bad day... lol And as for Uggs, I love them too! I don't care who says what, they are the comfiest and warmest things ever, and I'm not giving mine up.. EVER! ;) 11.30.09 - 8:56pm

s h e r r y Haha, I love how curious you were/are about brushes. I'd say GOOGLE will yield the answer... Maybe. 11.30.09 - 8:34pm

Rose Ugh. No Uggs here. I'm a Harley Davidson boot girl, like you, I love when Fall arrives and I get to wear my Harley boots. And if you saw me, you would probably never peg me as a Harley Davidson boot wearing kinda girl. But I admit, they aren't as light and cozy as Uggs - some day maybe Uggs... Love the cookbook idea, lost my mom to cancer and I still love her recipes. 11.30.09 - 7:58pm

Vanessa Tuau It seems like only yesterday I cracked my daughter, Cindy on the head with a brush. Brings back memories :) 11.30.09 - 7:56pm

Cathy Crawley Your love for the Ugg boot is just another reason why us Australians and Kiwis will embrace you with open arms, you know we've been wearing them for decades! As for the Chinese torture of asking 100+ questions in the space of 5 minutes I can relate to your poor mother and I would have found myself chasing you down the street with a brush in my hand too! I might put you in the car with my 4yo for 10 minutes when you visit as payback ;) 11.30.09 - 5:48pm

feuz The only spanking I ever really got from my mom was when I let the little rich neighbor girl cut my piggy take, my mom was so mad and angry, she made me eat hair, no lie, I will never forget that day, lol and then I spend the next 10 years looking like a boy, those and the teen years were ugly years then she became a hair salon owner and now takes care of my hair every week but yeah I dont really use brushes :-) 11.30.09 - 5:46pm

Raquel Guerra J* did you see the sales on the apple store handbags for the new macbook pro's? Only today on cyber Monday :) 11.30.09 - 5:19pm

alex.kruk I am so sorry for your camera, I don't like turkey and I think it smells too ! I don't know how many years already I want ugg boots and for some reason I always quit...maybe this year . Christmas should get a big kiss all along with christmas lights which my kids ( and me ) love so much ! 11.30.09 - 4:51pm

Bree I cracked the LCD screen on my Sony P&S a couple years back and cried. Proof in the link... 11.30.09 - 4:45pm

Becka @Studio222 Photography I think I'm putting Cyber Monday in the diss category today. I couldn't find any worthwhile deals. Tragic. ;) 11.30.09 - 3:53pm

Molly W. I just bought Ugg boots and it may have been the smartest thing I've ever done. AND, my 5D M II fell out of my car and onto the sidewalk the other day -OUCH!!!!!!!!!! I'm still recovering. Sigh, I feel pretty stupid. 11.30.09 - 2:23pm

Michelle O You had me smiling the whole way through! So funny...and yes, the Holidays...pure bliss! 11.30.09 - 2:11pm

Mariana Maya OMG! & I thought I was the only child who got smacked for asking "Why?" so much. Seriously and for answering "What?" as annoyed as could be to my grandmother upon being called in lieu of "mande usted (literal translation- demand upon me). Because if I answered "Mande usted" I would be given a laundry list of things to do ;-) Ahhh the good old days of being a kid. 11.30.09 - 1:21pm

Otto Rascon Parents are the best for putting up with such strong willed kids. I am living through it right now with my 2 year old. And sorry about your LCD screen. Dang, that really stinks. Rock on! 11.30.09 - 1:18pm

B Dear Jasmine, thank you for making me look like the perfect child. Compared to you, Mom and Dad thought I was Mother Theresa :) 11.30.09 - 12:11pm

LEOLAK LOL! Thanks for sharing your memories...that was cute. I'm with you on this whole brushes thing! Sorry about your cracked screen...bummer. Hope you had a great holiday! Your blog ROCKS! 11.30.09 - 11:59am

Diandra Oh my gosh! I WAS THAT KID! Only I dont think it ever got to the place of my mother running barefoot down the street after me with a hair brush... but maybe I've just blocked those memories out of my head :) Good thing you turned out so well! 11.30.09 - 11:57am

Tina That is sooo me too! One of my teachers in high school said my senior quote should be WHY? I could understand hard stuff but easy stuff, always Why?? We are truthseekers :) But gotten better at just letting it be with age. But watch out you will spawn a child just like you. My daughter drives me nuts with her whys but some are very intuitive! She asked for a popsicle for breakfast and I said NO. She says Why? And adds "You know it is just made out of water". Seriously?? All my kid talk.....will you and JD just have a baby already :) 11.30.09 - 11:18am

Jennifer O. Man, I'm not a huge fan of the way Uggs look but they sure are comfortable! Now to convince my husband that they are worth the money! Do they come in men's so he can experience this joy?! 11.30.09 - 11:05am
