I love meatloaf with scalloped potatoes.

I've never had corned beef & cabbage for New Years, but I am this year. I thought, why not? I don't think the leprachauns are gonna get me. Sounds like a good luck meal to me.

and yummy.............

Mmm I just snuck a little slice of the corn beef. Love the stuff. I don't enjoy the black eye peas but they are required if you have dinner with my parents.

Our tradition is pork and sauerkraut with scalloped potatoes on New Year's day for good luck. Must be a southern thing to do cornbread, blackeyes peas and cornbread as I have never heard of it here.

I haven't thought about ribboncane in years. I don't remember seeing it anywhere....

Brings back memories..

10 Minutes ago I got word that we're expected at the In Laws at 5 for supper.

NO idea what we're having... or if I was poda make something or... ?

Ah there's the phone and it's MIL...

Edit... she's not ready and is asking to move it to 5:30... or 6:00... said she's got the ham ready and all but not her own hair and makeup (this is normal)... knowing about the ham (and the extra hour or two) I offered mashed potatoes (the thing I'm usually asked to bring) and some devilled eggs... and she got that SO relieved/happy voice so that's awesome.
