Meatloaf

I grew up with out of sight home cooking. My nana was an awesome cook, my mom was an awesome cook and so I got use to good wholesome home cooking. Nana cooked most of the meals for grandpa and thier 2 girls. Every so often though gramps would cook meatloaf. And it was always phenominal. Even today we refer to our Meatloaf recipe as "Grandpa's Meatloaf". And i always think of him when I make it.

Heres to you Grampa!
