Cover Cucumbers and onions with liquid. Mix together. Refrigerate overnight. These will be sweet and very crisp.
Mix two cans mushroom soup and 1 cup sour cream; pour over turkey, but don’t stir. Mix large package Pepperidge dressing with butter and water. Put on top. Bake at 325 degrees until bubbly. You can use Stove Top too. I use my own homemade stuffing – works great!
Southwest Iowa residents who have an opinion about the current state of education in Iowa, and Governor Terry Branstad’s latest education initiative, may want to attend one of several town hall meetings being held around the area today (Tuesday) and tomorrow (Wednesday). Branstad and Lt. Governor Kim Reynolds will hold town hall meetings focusing on their education blueprint today in Mount Ayr, Bedford, Clarinda and Red Oak, and on Wednesday in Creston and Greenfield.
The Governor has proposed the boosting of beginning teacher pay and holding entry-level teachers to higher academic standards. In his initiative, which was unveiled October 3rd, the Governor set a goal of Iowa becoming the top-performing state in education, over the course of the next decade. To do that, he’s proposed: linking aspects of teacher pay to classroom performance; treating beginning teachers as “at-will” employees, who would have their contracts renewed annually by their local boards of education; requiring a minimum 3.0 college G.P.A to enter teacher prep programs; and, requiring 3rd graders to demonstrate their reading ability before being promoted to the 4th grade.
You can hear about his initiative and offer your input at these meeting places and times…

Saint Albert has officially become the 11th member of the Hawkeye 10 Conference. The St. Albert school board voted unanimously Monday night to join the conference making it official that the school will join the Hawkeye 10 in the fall of 2013. The Council Bluffs school was invited to the conference earlier this summer following a three to four year process that involved the Hawkeye 10 sending out surveys to several possible members. St. Albert had been a member of the Centennial Conference in Nebraska. This is the first change in membership for the conference since 1993 when Denison and Kuemper Catholic joined to turn the Hawkeye 8 into the Hawkeye 10. The Hawkeye 10 Conference Board of Directors voted unanimously June 10th to accept St. Albert as its 11th school.
