Just Plain Cooking is BACK!

Do you think I used a bookmark to find my stopping place in Memaw's cookbook? As a former English teacher I never use a bookmark ( well almost never). And I never know where I stopped reading! Pretty stupid, I know. I have the most beautiful and interesting bookmarks, so don't send me one. I won't use it. In fact, I have begun to regift my bookmarks. Be warned.

After searching my blogs for the last couple of months, I think I have found my place. If this is a repeat, sorry.

Company Meat Loaf (Memaw's)

1/2 cup bell pepper (chopped)

1 toe garlic (minced)

2 onions (chopped)

1/2 cup celery (chopped)

1 cup bread crumbs

1 pound veal ( ground)

1 pound beef ( ground)

2 eggs

1/2 cup milk

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

1 can cream of mushroom soup

3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

3 tablespoons horseradish

((((Mom, is this the meatloaf that my son loves? I use Ann Lander's recipe, and he likes that, too.))))
