Meal No. 1096: Lamb Meatloaf with Smashed Sweet Potatoes


This past Sunday night was planned to be dinner with two first cousins on my mother's side of the family: Marilyn and Carla. We'd caught up with one another for a brief visit a week ago, out at Tate's Craft Cocktails, and that's when we made these Roediger House dinner plans so that we could talk without yelling over live jazz. But it turns out we got our wires all crossed: Carla's already on her way back to New York and Marilyn had a brutal day of traveling home from a retreat and then doing a continuing ed class over in Greensboro.

But the guys on the plaster crew the next morning seemed grateful for my cousins' absence, because that meant there were leftovers with their names on them.
