Recipe(tried): Can't Get Enough of Meat Loaf!! - 72 Market Street Meat Loaf with Meat Loaf Gravy, Glazed Lemon Sour Cream Pound Cake

Menus
Hi Everyone!

Seems like we just had meat loaf a while back, I believe I made Cottage Meat Loaf which is awfully good.

Yesterday while at the grocer's I saw a beautifully packaged container of ground chuck and pork. It was a full 2 pounds and right away I knew I wanted to make meat loaf. There is nothing as versatile as a meat loaf, as you all well know, on the next day you can have great sandwiches! The recipe I am going to use is the 72nd Street Market Meat Loaf which is AWESOME. I have made it before and everyone loves it!!! I am going to serve this with baked sweet potatoes and green beans for me and mashed 'taters and peas for DH. For dessert, sliced strawberries and cream!!

I am also including a recipe for a Lemon Glazed Sour Cream Pound Cake that I promised a neighbor of ours. He is such a swell fellow and he and his wife are very kind to me. It's a great pound cake with milk or coffee!!!

Here are the recipes:
