Lucy Lou-er

Alright so I'm still not doing good at keeping up on this! SOWY! But I'm here now!

Lots to catch y'all up on but I dont want to over load you so I'll spread it out (hopefully) through the next couple days! :)

MY LUCY LOU!




 My dad lives on a couple acres on a busy road. We usually just let her run free because she never goes in front of the house towards the road. Well one night I noticed her up by the road a few times and I called her back. Well later on I looked away for a minute or two, went to check on her and couldn't find her. I started yelling for her and running towards the road where I could see cars slowing down, stopping, and getting out. I asked them if it was a dog and they said yes so then I started running back to the house screaming bloody murder for Ricky. He came running and told me to get inside. As soon as I walked through the door I collapsed, praying, bawling, not knowing what to think or expect. One of the people that stopped had Ricky follow her to the Animal Hospital, which was super nice. 
 
At the hospital Lucy was sedated, given painkillers and put into an oxygen tank. Ricky then came and got me and headed back to the hospital. We either had a choice of leaving her at the hospital over night and seeing how she does or bringing her home and hoping for the best. Well we took her home, made a pallett on the living room floor to sleep with her and waited. It is a friggin MIRACLE! By the next day she was just about back to normal!! Eating, Drinking, Jumping, Barking, etc.

I'll tell you what, if Lucy was not a pitbull with her big, huge head, she probably wouldn't have survived. The lady said the driver hit her and she went flying 20 ft (which the driver did not stop GRR!) and all the impact was in her head! I prayed and prayed and prayed for my baby to survive and she is still here :) Thank God!
 
ANYHOW......
 
Sorry for the depressing story! Just something major in my life that I thought I'd share! So I'll just go ahead and leave you with anthoer recipe today:
 
 It's my go-to. Ricky and Shaylee LOVE IT! It doesnt have a name but when I explain it to people I guess it is like a shepherd's pie? Never had it... Anywho!
 
Ingredients:
1lb. Hamburger
1 Can Corn
1 Can Green Beans
1 Can Tomato Soup
1 Package of Instant Mashed Potatos
1 Packet of dry onion soup mix
Shredded Cheese
Any cassrole dish will work. I use a deep glass one 
 
Directions:
-Preheat Oven to 375
-Brown Hamburger and drain grease, once drained sprinkle on packet of soup and mix
                 (During this you can make the mashed potatos)
-Put hamburger in bottom of dish
-Drain Corn and spread on top of meat
-Drain Green Beans and spread on top of corn
-Spread Concentrated Tomato Soup on top of Green Beans
-Spread Mashed Potatos on top of Soup
-Place in oven for 30 mins, the last five minutes sprinkle cheese over the top and place back in oven until melted
 
...and VOILA!!! We eat big portions around my house so usually if the 3 of us are eating it, there is not much left. But the leftovers are just as good!
 
I also like to serve it with crescent rolls!
 
Let's see if i can keep this up for tomorrow ;)
