I actually like this one too!!! That does not happen very often. Usually because I am too scared to try new foods, but I had a pound of hamburger and a few mouths to feed so I thought what the heck lets try something different. I was even able to use only one pan!!
Ingredients
- 1lb ground beef
- 6 sm. cubes of beef bullion
- 8 c. water
- 4 cubed potatoes
- seasoning salt
- salt
- pepper
- 1 can corn
- 1 sm. onion
- 1 c. instant white rice
So what I did was (This is a combination of a few recipies)
- Brown the beef with the season salt
- Drain it
- Add the water with bullion
- Add cubed potatoes and chopped onion
- Let simmer covered for about 10 min
- Add can of corn
- Let simmer covered another 10 min
- Add the cup of instant rice
- Remove from heat and cover
- Serve when the rice is fully cooked
- Salt and pepper to taste
Like I said it was really easy, but it is enough to feed at least 6 or more, pretty cheaply.
If you try it I hope that you enjoy!!
I was just leaving my weekly Dr. appointment at the hospital this afternoon when I saw a woman hit two vehicles while she was trying to park. So let me set the scene for you…
My dr appointments are at the Family Birth Clinic at the hospital here in Salem, Oregon. There is alot of construction work going on around there so parking is in the garage thing quite a ways away. (Far enough that they have a shuttle)
I had parked on the ground floor because it is easier to get in and out of but also because I am huge and fat and I just don’t want to walk anymore than I have to. So I was headed back to my van with my son Alex in his stroller. (Too far for him to walk) when this lady in a red land rover was going the wrong way down the isle. Needless to say in a parking garage there is barely enough room for a car going the right way down the isle to navigate between the huge monster trucks that park in there let alone go the wrong way and try to swing into a spot. Well that is what she was doing or at least attempting to do. So she finally figured out after like 6 attempts that she could not get her car in the spot, so she decided that she was going to turn around. That was proving to be difficult because of the lack of space, as I was getting Alex in the car I was watching her through the back window and watched her back into a medium sized white Dodge Dakota. She I don’t think realized that she had hit it because she was still backing up. I jumped out of my van and started waving my arms telling her to stop, she did and when she looked back she looked embarrassed. Then she pulled forward almost hitting MY van, (thankfully for her she didn’t I am not in the best of moods and she might not have liked what I would have had to say) and tried to back up again this time hitting a silver Subaru outback.
After about 5 min of maneuvering she finally was able to get in to the parking spot, (going around would have been much easier) when she emerged from her vehicle she just looked at me then went on her merry way. I could not believe it… She just hit two cars not one but two and was going to walk away? All I could think was amazing just amazing.
So knowing that if someone had hit my car I would want to know I waited for her to leave and drove around to get the plate information, make and model of all three vehicles. I just hope that someone would do that for me. Now that I had the information I wasn’t sure what to do with it, so I went to the security guard by the doors to my dr office and gave him the information. The only thing about that is I was the ONLY witness except the person that did I , so I had to give over my license and all that good information so that if the owners wanted to do something they had a way of contacting me.
It’s kind of scary when someone would do that and not even tell you. I know I have only refeered to the person as a woman in this post but when she got out of her car it was not what I would have expected. She was a distinguished looking lady in her late 40′s early 50′s if I had to guess. Not that I expect that kind of behavior from anyone but I would have more expected a teen or young driver to do something that stupid. Now I am just wondering how many other people she had hit and ran on and they are just stuck with the bill.
I guess this is just something that I will reflect on next time I get in or walk behind my car.
