Lyn, I know exactly what you mean...I never order meatloaf out. My hubby and daughter do, but I'm a much pickier eater than they are. Never know what's in it.
Once my daughter order chicken and dumplings and it was the most disgusting meal I have ever seen. She tried to eat it but it was bright yellow...don't know if that was food coloring or what !!! I still almost gag to think of it. YUCKO Only eat my mom's c & dumplings and she is 95. Mine never turned out like hers. She's a wonderful cook but I guess those days are over now. Such a shame, too. The end of my cooking days will not be mourned by many.LOL....I try...I really do just too many good cooks in my family and I could never quite live up to their cooking.
