It was the night the two Dads had to work late so the 2 Moms and 6 kids got together for "Meatball Tuesday". They were three doors down from us and we took turns hosting. There were always meatballs, but the other items on the dinner menu changed each week. Anyway I grew up loving meatballs. It was such a fun night!GardenOfDaisieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03110646840082802721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782420427425397917.post-13519124866772341132010-04-16T19:54:49.970-05:002010-04-16T19:54:49.970-05:00I don't eat meat that much, and yes those froz...I don't eat meat that much, and yes those frozen meatballs can kill it for me..~✽Mumsy✽~https://www.blogger.com/profile/10644719969613080399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782420427425397917.post-87725655758185986352010-04-16T17:23:16.091-05:002010-04-16T17:23:16.091-05:00LOL i was all geared up to hear about delicious m...LOL i was all geared up to hear about delicious meatballs ... i am not an "out of the box" devotee so i can appreciate how disappointed you were.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03270665398498790951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782420427425397917.post-91331573394936721472010-04-16T13:22:56.130-05:002010-04-16T13:22:56.130-05:00Oh, I don't like those frozen meatballs, eithe...Oh, I don't like those frozen meatballs, either! One year I was attending a party and needed to bring something and didn't want to go to the store. So I went online and found a recipe for meatballs, and cobbled together a sauce made with pepper jelly and I don't know what else. Well, they were a huge hit. Everyone wanted the recipe and have requested that I bring them to other parties. But I don't remember how I made them!Amanda Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11734403350649651877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782420427425397917.post-77582075274462658482010-04-16T13:18:18.601-05:002010-04-16T13:18:18.601-05:00I love good meatballs, and I'm like you I neve...I love good meatballs, and I'm like you I never make them the same way twice. But it cracks me up that you rub it in for those who arrive to late for the "famous" meatballs.
