  • 3/4 lb. shaved Virginia baked ham

Cut loaf of French bread in half to use it for a sandwich.  Butter both sides lightly.  Apply meats and cheese.  Can also add mushrooms.  Put top of sandwich back on, set aside.  Melt one stick margarine.  Add:

  • 1 teaspoon poppy seed
  • 1 tablespoon minced onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried mustard

Stir.  Put sandwich on large piece of aluminum foil.  Pour the melted mixture over top of entire sandwich, not just the meat.  Wrap sandwich up in foil.  Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.  Cut up to serve.

Third district Democrats Adams, Mowrer, Sherzan appear at Asian-Latino forum

News

May 10th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

The three Democrats seeking their party’s nomination for Iowa’s third district congressional seat agreed on each issue raised last night in a forum hosted by the Iowa Asian and Latino Coalition. It was when the candidates told stories about their backgrounds and how they would campaign against Republican Congressman David Young that differences emerged.

Desmund Adams of Clive is a high school dropout who wound up earning a teaching degree and a law degree. He touted his ability to “build coalitions”. “To be able to reach across aisles by not only aisles politically, but aisles both ethnic, racial, cultural, economic, business, workers,” Adams said. “It’s going to require that in order for us to win this seat back.” Mike Sherzan, of West Des Moines, sold his successful Iowa business to his employees last fall. “That doesn’t mean I’m a better person here,” Sherzan said. “That just means I know how to get things organized. I know how to work with people and that will make me a better legislator and, ultimately, a better person to organize the defeat of David Young.”

Jim Mowrer touted his experience running unsuccesfully against Congressman Steve King in 2014. Mowrer told the crowd he understands how to govern after working in the Pentagon and Mowrer closed the forum by suggesting his two Democratic rivals were ill-equipped to run against Young. “I don’t think it’s a retirement job. I don’t think it’s a job for someone who has no experience governing. It’s not going to be easy,” Mowrer said. “This is one of the closest districts and races in the country.” The third congressional district covers 16 counties in the southwestern quadrant of the state.
