We’ve all eaten meatloaf. We probably all complained a few times when we saw it on the lunch menu at school, or found out it was what mom had planned for dinner that night, yet remarkably when we make it into adulthood there comes day — we all know that day — when we find ourselves craving this once lackluster dish. Why? Researchers are still unsure. My guess is it’s the same impetus that moves us to at once desire and reject our blankie when we were five.
The time has come to pay up for all this bad mouthing and give this dish its due. Announcing: MEATLOAF APPRECIATION DAY. Yes, our favorite loaf get’s a day to shine. You have some time but start preparing now. Polish the pan and grind up the bread crumbs. Post your dish to your blog by Tuesday and Thursday you may join the meatloaf roundup for the official day. Yum Yum.
