I love decorating things and meatloaf and mashed potatoes are favorites of mine. Your recipe is very much like mine but I never thought of the frosting with mashed potatoes. Very Clever! I'd love to take a picture of it when I'm done but I think I am the last person in America without a digital camera. I must get one.
