Went out to eat tonight - I had crab & shrimp cakes w. horseradish cream & roasted veggies. The kids had a variety of Italian dishes: pasta alfredo, mezza roma flatbread, etc. We are totally spoiled! Bunny tracks ice cream for dessert. smile

Did you remember the meat? (kidding) Hope it tasted GREAT! smile

My hair stylist told me her brother made a 'baloney meatloaf' for dinner one night. She (not-so) politely declined to partake...actually I think she said something after the first bite like, "What in the H*LL are the chunks? What is IN this thing!?!"

He swore he saw it on Rachel Ray.

The bread crumbs are indeed a binder, though if you want a healthier option, you can substitute oats.

Man, now I'm craving meatloaf.

I made a giant salad for dinner out of the huge head of romaine lettuce I bought from the local organic farm where my daughter's preschool went to pick strawberries a few days ago.

I had no dinner. Prisca and I were on a date, and we bought dinner at Subway and took it in the car, and I had such a good time that I FORGOT TO EAT MY SANDWICH. We just now discovered it, sitting there, hours later.

Your W may make 'better' meatloaf, but I will tell you I enjoy whatever DH makes just because it means I don't have to cook. Cooking is usually my 'job' in our house. If DH cooks it's usually Grill Cheese, Egg and Cheese, or PB&J with Bacon on the side, but it's some of my favorite meals. wink

Last night I had PB&J and milk. We took a 'nap' when we got home and DH never got up. When I woke up around 11 and I made me a sandwich and went back to bed around 3am. I don't understand how DH can sleep 12 hours in a stretch!

Tonight Spaghetti and garlic bread for the family and meatballs for me...and of course some veggies, haven't decided yet, maybe green beans.
