So happy
Well, we bought a Ford Expedition. It's going to take some used to parking that thing, LOL. We also just found out this am that we got the apartment. Can't wait to move and have my own space. The girls can't wait to get their own room. All is well.

Salsa Sloppy Joes
Another great one. I think I got this from Taste of Home or Simple and Delicious cooking magazines, highly recommend. 
I made this for our nephew and his ex-gf when they had their last baby. She wasn't nursing, so the spiciness was fine. Not too spicy. It was a great hit! Quick and easy.
Salsa Sloppy Joes
1 lb ground beef (I only use ground turkey now)
1 jar (11 oz) salsa (I used Pace Picante Mild)
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 small can tomato soup, undiluted
8 hamburger buns, split
In a large skillet, cook meat over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in rest of ingredients except buns. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until heated through. Spoon 1/2 cup mixture onto each bun. Serves 8.
