Sausage Bake (6-20-2017)

Mom's Tips

June 20th, 2017 by Jim Field

  • 1 1/2 lbs. sausage
  • 2 cups sharp cheese (cubed)
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 3/4 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 1/2 cups seasoned croutons
  • 1 cup mushrooms, drained
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/4 cup milk

Brown and drain the sausage.  Add the cheese, beaten eggs, mustard and milk, then the seasoned croutons.  Mix and place in a 9″ x 13″ pan sprayed with Pam.  Refrigerate over night.  In the morning, mix and pour 1 can mushroom soup, milk and drained mushrooms over the sausage dish.  Bake at 350 degrees for an hour.

Do not stir in the mushroom soup and milk, just pour over top.  Check the outside edges if done.  The milk will look wet, but this is how it should look.

Record ticket sales reported for Solheim Cup

Sports

June 20th, 2017 by admin

Officials report record ticket sales for August’s Solheim Cup. The Des Moines Golf and Country Club will host the women’s version of the Ryder Cup which will feature three days of competition between the top golfers from the United States and the best from Europe.

Chris Garrett is the tournament director. Des Moines Golf hosted the 1999 U-S Senior Open which shattered attendance records.

Julie Inkster is making her second run as captain of the U-S team after leading the Americans to victory in Germany two years ago. Inkster says the event more closely resembles a team sport than a golf tournament.

Inkster says the team aspect and the chance to represent your country makes the Solheim Cup an emotional event.

Three days of competition begins August 18.

Medical incident leads to 3-vehicle crash in Red Oak

News

June 20th, 2017 by admin

The Red Oak Police Department believes a medical incident led a man to cross traffic and crash into two parked vehicles on Monday afternoon.  At 2:51pm a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado driven by Richard Leroy Clark of Red Oak was traveling southbound on North Broadway in Red Oak when he crossed two lanes of traffic, jumped a sidewalk, and ran into two parked vehicles in the Kum and Go parking lot.  Clark left the scene of the accident and officers found a license plate at the accident site. Officers then were able to locate Clark and his damaged vehicle at his residence. It is believed Clark suffered a medical incident and alcohol was not a factor.

No one was injured during the incident and Clark was checked out by Red Oak Rescue. Clark was cited for traveling on the wrong side of a two-way highway. The two parked vehicles that were struck suffered a total of $6,000 estimated damage. Clark’s vehicle sustained an estimated $5,000 damage.

Montgomery County Sheriff’s officials and Red Oak Rescue assisted the Red Oak Police with the incident.

Motorist stopped in western Iowa going 115 mph

News

June 20th, 2017 by Ric Hanson

The Iowa State Patrol is reporting another “extreme speed” incident. A trooper on Sunday clocked a vehicle on Interstate 80 near Council Bluffs going 115 miles per hour in a 65 mph zone. A picture of the radar reading and the car that was pulled over was posted by the Patrol to Facebook. Patrick Hoye, Chief of the Iowa Governor’s Traffic Safety Bureau, says THAT motorist is not just putting their own life at risk – but many others on the road.

“When a driver is going that fast, there is just absolutely no reaction time for them to stop,” Hoye said. “They’re in and out of lanes…it’s an extremely dangerous situation.” Other motorists who spot another vehicle traveling at such an extreme speed are encouraged to safely report it to police. “What we ask citizens to do is pull over at the next exit, call the local sheriff’s department and alert them of that vehicle traveling at that extreme speed,” Hoye said.

“A lot of times, that’s how law enforcement is notified if there’s no officers in that area.” In recent months, the State Patrol has posted several photos of traffic stops on Iowa interstates involving vehicles clocked at speeds over 100 miles an hour.
