Once all these ingredients are well combined add hamburger to the bag, knead until the hamburger is well combined with mixture.  Form into a loaf and place into loaf pan, if you prefer you can use a larger corning ware dish and put potatoes and carrots around the meatloaf.  Set to the side.  In a small bowl combine ketchup, brown sugar and worstershire sauce, stir until well mixed making sure there are no sugar lumps.  Spread about half of the glaze over the meat loaf and bake for 1 hour 15 minutes.  When you remove the meat loaf from the oven allow to rest for 10 minutes before cutting.  Use remaining sauce as needed when serving.
