LOVE love this recipe, I came up with when craving Runzas (its a nebraska thing, that most people dont know even exists)......<br />
Start with 1 lb ground beef - put in skillet with about 1/2 cup water and 1/2 - 1 packet dry beefy onion soup mix. Mush it all up, doesn't look appetizing, but just trust me :) I use my <a href="http://www.pamperedchef.biz/philipsmom?page=products-detail&categoryId=96&productId=15658&itemId=2583&parentCategoryId=8">mix-n-chop from pampered chef.

My little boy, Talen, has always always been obsessed with MY laptop. He is constantly posting random stuff on my facebook, or just pounding the keys; which has a time or two almost froze it completely up. So, we got him his own and he absolutely loves it! It says ages 3-6 but for now he just likes hearing the music and talking and carrying it around..... Super cute<br />
<br />
Also, one more thought - I AM SO THANKFUL THAT I HAVE TWO WONDERFUL KIDS AND KLARISSA IS THE BEST BIG SISTER EVER! She is absolutely amazing with him and he adores her<br />
