  3. I'll be over at 6:00! That sounds great.

    I usually use barbecue sauce in my meatloaf, but I like the combo of worcestershire and the red pepper flakes. I'm going to have to try it your way.

  4. Sounds like fun. I don't do menu planning since a) it's just me and b) I usually only have enough time to run through a drive through on my way from work to some meeting or another!
