My comment is this--------------- first love your show. I have watched it for years. AND I USE YOUR recipes. The real reason for this note is. My hair was so gray and so I made it very white I like it. I went to a BD party Saturday and when I walked into the room, a very nice looking Man looked at me and said " Paula Dean" I smiled and said that is quite a complement kind Sir. He said you look like her and you are beautiful. It has only been a few days later BUT I think of you when I do go out and I feel beautiful. As Always Julee L Barrass 1886 Denison NW Warren Oh 44485

I just love you and the boys. I know you had a hard time raising two boys, but girl you rose out of the ashes like a Phoenix And soared higher. I believe you are still soaring and the boys are still with you. I lost my oldest son Todd last Sept. 21' 2012. He was 48 years old. Had Melanoma that went to his brain. Never married, no children. He and I were like you and your sons with a deep respect and love for each other. I' saving to buy a set of your pots. They look like a quality cookware. You look wonderful, keep up the good work and good cooking.

I never have used bread in my meatloaf and I have been making it for over 45 years. When I first made it for my husband when we first got married, I made it with oatmeal(1 cup), but now I use 1 sleeve of saltine crackers that I put in a bag and use a rolling pin until they are very fine. I read about 2 years ago that Martha Stewart makes hers that way and that it makes the best cold meatloaf sandwich, EVER! I concur. Two lbs ground chuck, 2 eggs, one finely chopped onion, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup cream, and the sleeve of crackers. Topping: 1/3 cup of ketchup, 2 Tbsp. brown sugar and 1 Tbsp. dijon mustard. Put in loaf pan and back @350 for 1 1/2 hr. tented with foil. Pull the foil off after 45 min. and put on the topping. DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is so delicious and super easy! I literally put it together and into the oven in about 10 minutes. I added a few things into the meatloaf mixture... - About 4 cloves of fresh garlic - 1/3 cup milk (instead of the ketchup) - a pinch of parsley - a pinch of garlic powder - pinch of onion powder Kept the glaze as is and the hubby loves it. My picky toddler will even give it a try!

This recipe is easy and delicious! We particularly like the glaze on top of the meatloaf. For some reason I never seem to have sliced bread when I'm making meatloaf so I've substituted croutons (about 1 cup) for the slice of bread, and it's been delicious still. Thanks!
