Home Cooking….. Meatloaf, Mashed Taters, Peas and a Salad.

Oh myyyy…..Comfort food.

I heard some of you shriek and run from the room. And then I heard some of you say “Yum, memories”.

When I was younger ( yes, they had electricity) we weren’t able to eat junk food or frozen meals. You ate dinner at the table every night with the family. Did any of you grow up the same way?

I love to cook with love so this meal is necessary on days when someone is having a bad day. It made you feel better when you thought life was dealing you a bad hand. *wink*

 

I make sure there is enough to have cold meatloaf sandwiches the next day. Yum!  Do you like cold meatloaf sandwiches? If you do what do you put on them?

 

Yummy……..

Mmmm mashed taters with gravy…….

 

There are so many people that “hate” peas.  I think it is necessary to have these items together.

You scoop up some taters and gravy on your fork, then you tilt it to the side and push it on top of the pile of peas. Now you don’t have to worry about the peas falling it off your fork, they’re “stuck”. *smile*

OK, I don’t eat like that anymore, but I think I will the next time I make it. *wink*

Ahhh, memories !!

 

 

You can’t break the “dam” of gravy. Take your fork and around in a circle around the potatoes. You then dip your fork full of taters in the gravy. That way you have enough gravy for all your potatoes.                                          * shaking head*  I don’t know why I needed to explain that. *laugh* But you know what? I will be that there are some of you out there that know what I am talking about. *snicker*

Hey, why didn’t I take pictures of the salad? Oh I know why….. A bunch of hungry people.

 

I am coming back to write the recipe in recipe form.
