When playing in the snow calls your name!

The snow is flying and if you didn't have to go out, you didn't! I love these kind of days. The kids did have school, but not too much homework. As soon as snack was over and homework was done we headed outside to play. 5 neighborhood kids came to play and everyone had a good time for a couple of hours! It was great! The moms and I were all amazed at the little things that kept all these kids busy for so long!!!
I was lucky that I had had dinner simmering all afternoon. A very simple dinner of Swiss Steak and mashed potatoes. Yummo!!!! Great dinner that uses things that most have in either their fridge or pantry. Try it, you'll like it!!!!
Swiss Steak

Round steak, thin cut. However much you need to feed your family!
3 Carrots, thinly sliced
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1 small onion, diced
2-3 cans tomato soup
I use an electric skillet for this recipe, but you could easily put this in a dutch oven in a very low oven. Place steak in electric skillet, top with carrots, celery and onions. Then spread the tomato soup over the top and allow to simmer for several hours. Yum!!!!!
I serve this over mashed potatoes and my family loves it!!!
