Sweet and Sour Hamburger

This is one of my favorite meals (as well as Josh's and Garet's). Mel requested the ingredients for it, but this is the actual recipe not the "I don't know 4 or 5 tablespoons" or "until it looks the right color".

Sweet and Sour Hamburger

1 lb. hamburger
1 c catsup
4 T. Worchestershire sauce
5 T. vinegar
5T. sugar
1/3 c. water

Brown hamburger, drain off grease. Add all other ingredients and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Serve over rice.

Broccoli Cheese Soup

This is a recipe my sister-in-law gave me when I first got married. I usually half it for my family.

6 medium potatoes, cut into bite sized pieces
6 carrots, peeled and sliced
1 crown broccoli, cut into small pieces

Cook these separately while I am putting together the soup base, which is

1 c. butter
1 c. flour
1 medium onion, chopped
8 c. milk
4 c. cheese

Melt the butter in a large soup pot. Put in the onion and flour. Stir in the milk and continue to stir so it doesn't scald. Add a small amount of cheese and see if it melts. If it does, add the rest of the cheese. If it doesn't, let it get a little hotter. Continually stir until it starts to lightly boil. Remove from heat. Add vegetables. My kids like it with Ritz crackers. If it is too think, just add a little water.
