Great Grandma Schwieder's Tomato Hamburger Noodle Soup

1 qt tomato juice
1 qt water
about 1 1/2 c macaroni
1 lb hamburger
1 tsp dried onion flakes
2 stalks minced celery
2 Tbs butter or margarine
1 Tbs seasoning salt
1/4-1/3 c brown sugar

Bring the tomato juice and the water to boil in a pot. While waiting for that to boil brown the hamburger with the onion in a skillet. When the liquids boil add the macaroni-- it won't look like much, but the noodles will expand a lot as they sit in the liquid. Add the celery at the same time. Add the butter and seasoning salt. Cook until the noodles at done-- they still won't look like much, but they will expand even after they are done. After the noodles are done add the hamburger and brown sugar. I put in a little less than a 1/3 of a cup when I made it and it was a little to sweet, so maybe a little bit more than a fourth or a very scant third of a cup.
