I'd love your meatloaf recipe! I never had meatloaf as a kid and I experiment with a new recipe every few months. I like it, although I'm not sure what my husband thinks. :)
ReplyDeleteNice questionnaire. It's always fun to find out a bit more about people.
ReplyDeleteYou're getting up really early! I thought my 6.30am was early! I'm a silver girl too (rather than gold).
What the problem with the underwear? I've got two types: black and white. Some of the black have narrow white stripes. There. :-)
Rebecca -- It's a very simple recipe, just ground beef, an egg, a chopped onion, a few glops (the technical term!) of ketchup, and salt & pepper. Throw it in the oven for an hour and you're done.
ReplyDeleteThat and homemade scalloped potatoes will be my last meal if I am ever up for execution.
Judith -- yeah 4:50 is early, but it's really the only time that I can consistently exercise. Some days I just can't do it, but it is slowly getting easier.
