First turn on some music.
Saute diced celery, green pepper, and onion (around 1/2 cup each), and one diced garlic pod in olive oil.
Brown meat. I did probably about a pound of hamburger and half a roll of Italian sausage. Drain grease. Mix meat and veggies.
Add 1 cup of water, 2 small cans of tomato sauce, 1 can of tomato soup (I substituted about 1/3 jar of Ragu since we didn't have tomato soup), 1 small can of tomato paste, 1 can cream of mushroom soup, 1 small can mushroom stems and pieces, chopped. Stir Well.
Finally, add Italian seasoning (I just shake some out - lots!), 1 tsp. of salt, black pepper, and a shake or two of dried parsley. Let simmer for four hours stirring occasionally. (I simmered it for about 2 1/2 hours because we ran out of time - and it was still very good.)
P.S. Interview tomorrow (Wednesday) at Panera at 2:30 p.m.!! :)

I'll be right over! Looks really delicious, Alanna! The radio picture is hilarious - why are they so tempermental?! What's really aggravating is when the reception is clear when you're standing right next to the it, but as soon as you walk away, bye-bye reception and hello static!!
The food looks lovely!
BTW, you must read Pride and Prejudice. It is also lovely. :) Then you can watch the movie again, and it will make more sense. :) Another thought: while I do enjoy the movie version you watched, I don't believe that it will ever compare to the earlier version with Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy and Jennifer Ehle as Elizabeth. I think it was done by the BBC perhaps? A&E? Anyway...much longer, but truly lovely!!!
"Lovely" is my word of the night.
Yum yum!!! I love making my own sauces!!!
I like the way you did step by step pictures. Almost as if you were planning to blog about it. hehe.
And the radio set up is funny. "This particular set up is how I best receive KLOVE".
Good stuff.
I like spaghetti. When it's done right. I recently made chili. I love making it. Well it was chili like. Anyway.
