I wanted something old fashion for supper tonight and decided on making turkey meatloaf. And I'll tell you the whole truth...I even bought a can of gravy to go with it. Yep. Canned. It's Campbell's. Making steamed spinach with butter and couscous too. And somebody (Teddy) loves turkey. So I made a baby meatloaf for him without the onions in it. I hope he likes it.
I got my first issue of Taste of Home magazine today. I subscribed. Gourmet went under and I am not in the mood for Food and Wine magazine these days. Just looking for comfort on the farm. And I think this will fit the bill nicely.
These are sitting on my drainboard. Aren't they beautiful They are the Rainer variety. They are almost as big as apples. Teddy likes them too. I bite off a piece and give it to him. The season is so short so I better get them in while they are here...because before I know it...they will be gone.****************************************************************************************

things 'kids say' at the back.

i like taste of home and buy it often. what a lucky little fellow teddy is! i bet he loved the meatloaf. our rainier cherries still look awful. i used to get the really big ones when we lived in canada.
ReplyDeletehi there...visiting from soul aperture...so glad i found you!
ReplyDeleteTeddy you are such a lucky little boy to have such a loving and thoughtful momma. I know in return you offer such comfort and joy, you are Kari's little blessing. Oh, and Winslow Homer says to try cherry tomatoes, his personal favorite.
ReplyDeleteWhat is is about "comfort food?" Even in the summer we crave comfort. This sounds delish and I love Teddy's liitle one.

ReplyDeleteHey, we had turkey BURGERS last night! It must have been the eve of ground turkey :)
ReplyDeleteI bought bakery-style buns, seasoned the paties with crumbled feta, garlic, onion powder and S&P.
Then I topped each burgers with a spicy peach preserves mustard sauce, sliced fresh peaches, toasted walnuts, and fresh spinach.
They were superb!
yum!! i bet teddy just LOVED that! roxy is officially jealous ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are back to normal, dear Kary, and I realize I am not keeping up with your many blog posts! This meatloaf looks delicious! So cute that you made a little one for Teddy. Winslow often gets a piece of what we are eating if it's good for him... He'd love a meatloaf all to himself! Love, Silke
ReplyDeleteTeddy's meatloaf looks delish....and I'll be he enjoyed it too! Makes me hungry.
