Forty years ago there was a sweet little old lady named Emma, who lived in the apartment upstairs of me and she would come over to chat now and then. One day she came and brought a plate of meatloaf surrounded with carrots and potatoes in a very tasty gravy. She was just bursting with pride because she had just come back from a cook-off contest at the senior center she attended and had taken first place with the meatloaf. She shared the recipe with me and I have enjoyed it all of these years. It is made in a skillet on the stovetop.
