Hi All, I can't believe it's been since January since my last post. Ok, I can believe it. For me, it is hard to keep up on this blog thing. You know, there's always housework, work, kids, church, & of course, Facebook. I have so much catching up to do, I can't even believe it. So instead of looking back, which I'll do eventually do, I'll look forward to what is ahead of me. Starting with this weeks menu:
Sunday- Meatloaf, cheesy beans, hot rolls, & peaches. Meatloaf recipe below.
Monday- Fried steak, mashed potatoes, white gravy, fresh apples & veggies
Tuesday- Meatloaf sandwiches, veggie & fruit
Wed- crockpot pork roast(one of my favorites), roasted veggies, & fruit
Thurs- BBQ pork sandwiches, chips, apples
Friday- homemade pizza or leftovers
I love this time of year, when it's cool in the morning & evenings are just right for sittin' outside w/ a cup of joe or an occasional glass of wine. It also gets me in the mood for cooking yummy soups, casseroles, & MEATLOAF! I love meatloaf. Here is the best meatloaf recipe I've used. There's nothing fancy to it & there's no wierd stuff in it (like carrots). It's good ol' meat.
