Cook ground beef and onions in a skillet and drain off grease. Add mushrooms, flour, paprika and salt. Stir in soup and sour cream and cook three to five minutes. Serve over cooked noodles or rice. Serves 4.
May have to use a little water with the soup if cooked on the stove. Can be made in the microwave oven. This recipe can be cut in half for two people. I sometimes leave out the sour cream and add just a little water with the soup to make a nice gravy. This is a quick, easy recipe.

Creston Police report 20-year old Jeffrey Arnold, of Creston, was charged Monday with Theft in the 4th Degree. The charge stems from an incident that took place Jan. 24th, during which a TV was stolen from the Creston Wal-Mart. Arnold was being held in the Union County Jail on $1,000 bond.
FORT DODGE, Iowa (AP) – A pontoon boat company plans to close its Iowa plant and move production to an Indiana location. The Messenger reports that about 45 employees will lose their jobs at the Misty Harbor plant in Fort Dodge. Misty Harbor President Jeff Miller says the work done in Fort Dodge will be moved to the Bristol, Indiana, plant to “optimize operational efficiency and reduce logistic costs.” He says the Fort Dodge operations will wind down over the next two to three months. He didn’t provide an exact closing date. Misty Harbor was founded in Humboldt, Iowa, in 1989. It moved to Fort Dodge in 1993.
(Radio Iowa) – The candidates who had Caucus Night celebrations in Des Moines put their own spin on the unknown results. Pete Buttigieg addressed about two-thousand supporters in a Drake University gym. “So we don’t know all the results, but we know by the time it’s all said and done, Iowa — you have shocked the nation,” Buttigieg said, to cheers. Buttigieg wasn’t referring to the delayed Caucus results — but was instead making a suggestion about his finish in the caucuses. “By all indications, we are going onto New Hampshire victorious,” Buttigieg said.

Joe Biden’s legal counsel sent Iowa Democratic Party officials a letter, citing “considerable flaws” in the caucus reporting system. Biden told supporters the results — once revealed — “would be close.” “The Iowa Democratic Party is working to get these results, get ’em straight and I want to make sure they’re very careful in their deliberations,” Biden said.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders addressed cheering supporters before 11 o’clock last night. “I imagine, have a strong feeling that at some point the results will be announced,” Sanders said, to cheers, “and when those results are announced, I have a good feeling we’re going to be doing very, very well here in Iowa.”
Elizabeth Warren offered this explanation to her supporters. “It is to close to call — so I am just going to tell you what I do know,” Warren said, and then one of her supporters yelled, “You won!” and the crowd cheered. Warren began her speech by thanking Iowa and her supporters here. ”You came together, you organized, you showed that we are united in our conviction that hope defeats fear,” Warren said.
Amy Klobuchar was first to speak once it became clear results would not be released. “You’ve probably heard we don’t know the results, but I did not want to let another minute go by without thanking all of you,” Klobuchar said. “…We know there’s delays, but we know one thing: we are punching above our weight.”
Klobuchar suggested the results — whenever they may be announced — will show she is “on the board.”

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – For Americans following along on cable TV, Monday’s Iowa caucuses were a bewildering carnival of democracy _ until it all went sour. The failure of Democrats to report timely results meant viewers went to bed not knowing what it all meant.

During the coverage, reporters used to sifting through reams of scientific voting data were instead wandering around rec rooms and auditoriums, counting raised hands or estimating the size of clusters of people in bleachers. The Iowa caucuses sneaked up on television viewers, with all the attention paid to President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial.
