On Thanksgiving we took the MIL to her brother’s for dinner. I sat next to the better-half’s aunt who said, “I don’t like stuffing”. I gave her the WTF face. I thought she just didn’t serve stuffing for dinner because she considered the potatoes and dinner rolls to be enough carbohydrates. These people are good hosts but their food tends to be bland and unimaginative.
Bland and unimaginative are all fine and dandy, but no stuffing for Thanksgiving is a sacrilege.
Last night I made a batch and can’t wait for leftovers. I used weirdo 9-Grain bread so you don’t have to go with white bread. Next time, I’m going to try it with a mix of white bread and cornbread. I have to tell you that cooking bacon and then adding sage into the mix makes your house smell so good that you’ll want to walk outside just so you can come back in to take a big sniff (true story).
Yup. Stuffing and mashed potatoes are enough for me.
