Did You Hear Us Screaming?

Did you hear us cheering for the New Orleans Saints tonight from Mesquite, Texas?

The first time we ever ate chicken spaghetti, we ate it with the Brees boys. Their mom worked at the same law firm that employed my hubby, and while we were poor seminary students, their family needed some weekend housesitting/childcare. (My husband is convinced that throwing the football in the back yard with Drew helped him clinch New Orleans's victory today.)

In honor of tonight's win, we'll be making Mina Brees's recipe. It's one of the staples at our Texas table. You might like to make some too:

MINA'S CHICKEN SPAGHETTI

1 chicken boiled and deboned and chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can water
parsley, salt, pepper to taste
1 pkg (12 oz) spaghetti, cooked
Mix all together and serve in skillet. (I add garlic salt too.)

No matter who you rooted for tonight, isn't it fun to see a city go from devastation to celebration?
