Meatloaf Night – How Presidential can it be?
This meatloaf recipe is my grandmother’s and the only one I ever make. I will admit I have tweaked it a bit. Instead of baking it in the oven, I use the microwave. Moist and perfect every time.
1 lb. Ground Beef
1 Cup Uncooked Oatmeal
1 Egg
1 Small Can Tomato Sauce
1 Small Onion Chopped
Salt and Pepper
Mix together well; get your hands in it and really work it together. Take a round glass baking dish (cake pan size) and invert a custard bowl in the center. The custard bowl acts like a vacuum and all the fat from the meat just goes right into the bowl. Spray the glass dish with Pam and then gently place handfuls of the meat mixture in the dish to form a ring. You don't want to pack it in.
Cook in the microwave for 8 to 10 minutes. While it is cooking mix together the glaze.
Glaze:
1/2 Cup Ketchup
1 Teaspoon Mustard (your favorite kind)
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
Remove Meatloaf from microwave after initial cooking time and top with the yummy glaze. Return to microwave and cooking for 3 more minutes.

Hair Now, Hair Then
This memory was triggered by a recent picture posted by my dil on Instagram. The picture was of my grans giving their father a “pretend” hair cut as they watched General Conference together. Not sure what it is about kids and hair; but it does provide entertainment. Apparently I was no different. I remember combing and brushing my dad’s hair while he played cards with my grandfather and uncle. I remember it like yesterday. It is a fond memory of mine.

The First Weekend in October
The first weekend in October will find us watching this, General Conference! It is our weekend to be inspired by our leaders. It is a weekend of renewal. It is a weekend I look forward to every six months. Happily this great weekend will happen again the first weekend in April.
This stay-at-home weekend will find us working on small projects around the house as well. It is a blessed weekend.
