Yes, it seems like it's time for meatloaf. Nice homey smell and taste for
the Fall.

I just put 36 stuffed cabbage rolls in the electric roaster to simmer in
tomato/sour cream gravy. Will freeze it in portions after we have some for
dinner tonight. Also have a big pot of spaghetti sauce with meatballs
simmering on the stove, to be divided and frozen.

In the past several weeks I've baked and eaten enough pies to feed a small
army...not good for a diabetic, so no more real desserts for a while. I
just made some sugar-free Jell-O with fresh orange segments and a few
chopped fresh mint leaves. That will have to do.
