We still don't have consistent heat in our house. This problem has been ongoing for more than two weeks now. I don't want to go into all of it. Let's just say that the home warranty people have been less than cooperative and that it flat out drove me to tears on Saturday. Funny how they got so much nicer on the phone when I was crying and shivering uncontrollably. Keep your fingers crossed that we may have a solution on Wednesday.

My butt hurts because I fell down the stairs on Saturday carrying two big boxes of Christmas decorations. That also flat out drove me to tears.

Sunday has become soup day at our house. I make soup in the morning and then let it cook all day in the crock pot. There isn't much that soup won't fix – except furnaces. It might have even made my butt feel better. Here is yesterday's offering.
Brown 1 lb. hamburger with a chopped onion.
In crock pot, place:
1 box beef broth
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 can northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 can tomato sauce
1 can corn, drained
1 package Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix
1 package taco seasoning
Add drained hamburger to pot. Cook on low 5-6 hours. Season with salt and hot sauce to taste.
I was a little skeptical the first time I tried this recipe but it's really good. Especially when your house is 58 degrees. And your butt hurts.
