Tuesday, October 29, 2013. How to Make Restaurant-Style Salsa. You just can't buy anything like it in a store. And it's so easy, once you make your own, you'll never go back to buying it in a jar.

Mama Brightowl: November 2013
http://mamabrightowl.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 28, 2013. I am so thankful for my family, for my husband, and each one of my kids. I am thankful for friends and neighbors. I am thankful for an abundance of food, for this wonderful country we live in, for our beautiful state of Washington, and for my goofy dog. This was our attempt to sort of recreate the Norman Rockwell Thanksgiving painting. The tablesetting before we all sat down to eat. Each person had a pumpkin and a tealight candle at their place (except the 4yo and 2yo! I didn...

Thursday, April 24, 2014. Please visit my new blog for the recipe to Buttery Yeast Rolls here. Links to this post. Wednesday, April 23, 2014. I know, it seems a little late, but as Catholics, we are actually in the Easter season for 50 days, so see? I love you so much I just wanna squeeeeeze you! Sweetie pies. They would never misbehave. Holy Thursday mass was nice (this is the mass that the priest washes the feet of 12 parishioners - to represent Christ washing the feet of his disciples). Saturday was s...

Mama Brightowl: March 2013
http://mamabrightowl.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 25, 2013. 21 Years and Counting. Last week, my husband Andy and I celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary! I can hardly believe we have been married that long. Twenty-one years ago, we chose March 20, the first day of spring, to tie the knot. Spring represents new beginnings, and for me, that's what our marriage represented. A new beginning - a new chance at love, a new chance at a happy marriage. The Bacon Mansion, Seattle, WA. We left the kids at home with our oldest daughter Whitney.

Mama Brightowl: May 2014
http://mamabrightowl.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 14, 2014. Steak and Veggie Stir Fry. Here are the frozen vegetables I used. If you have leftover steaks, this will only take about 15 minutes! And it's so good that it's worth just grilling some extra steaks during a cookout to have ready for a meal later in the week. This is an easy supper to throw together on a busy night. 1 tablespoon oil (I used olive oil). 2 or 3 boneless cooked steaks, sliced thin. Coarse Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper. 1 package (16 ounces) frozen vegetables.

Tuesday, February 26, 2013. A Neat-Freak Teen: Every Parent Should Have One. From the time my 9th grader, Sky, was a preschooler, she has demonstrated the preference for neatness and order over messes and chaos. She was my only child who never really needed a bib, because she refused to get her face and hands messy. She happily put her toys away at the end of playtime, and even tried to make her bed when she was as young as 2. I love her wall collections - notes and drawings from friends, favorite movie ...
