Mom's Meatloaf
As a new member of the family, I loved spending time with Midge shopping, chatting, and dining. On one of my first invitations to dinner, she mentioned she was going to make meatloaf. I politely smiled and said, “Looking forward to it,” while thinking “meatloaf, yuck!” Once I tasted her delicious meatloaf, I immediately asked for a copy of the recipe. It has become a favorite and memories of Midge always brings a smile to my face.
