Normally my mom makes a couple pumpkin pies. Dad buys several cream pies from a local bakery plus makes an authentic cherry cheesecake. His cheesecake takes like 6 hours and 50 million steps to make. I doubt he will make it this year though. I guess I can offer to do it. It isn't hard, just very very time consuming.

Here ya go. I posted it back a few posts but for your convenience here it is again HEHE!!

Cornbread Dressing

First, make cornbread one to two days before.

2 cups white or yellow cornmeal mix (White Lily or Martha White) NOT the little jiffy packages
1 cup flour (self-rising)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
1 cup milk (may take a bit more)

Bake at 375 degrees until brown and a toothpick comes out clean....about 30 minutes or so.

Dressing

Crumble cornbread and toast (4 pieces of white toast) and mix together. In a separate pan, cook 1 large onion (chopped) and 4 to 5 stalks of chopped celery in a little butter, until onions turn clear. Add to cornbread mixture. Then add 4 raw eggs and 4 hard boiled eggs (chopped fine). Add salt, pepper and sage or poultry seasoning to taste. (Sage gets stronger as it cooks, so add just enough to taste it and it should be ok when it is done.) Add 1 can cream of chicken soup and 1 can cream of celery soup, then finish up by adding broth from the turkey or chicken broth to make it moist. Put in a butter or Pam sprayed casserole and cut up 1 stick of butter over the top of it. Bake at 350 degrees or until nice and brown. Most everything, except the eggs are done anyway, so when it is hot all the way thru and a little brown on top it is done.

LOL!! Naw I just called her and asked for it and she sent it. She knows I love her dressing and probably just thinks I want to make it at home. Don't get me wrong I love my wife to death but her idea of dressings comes out of a box LOL. It is hard for me, because I grew up eating my grandmothers cooking and my moms, and let me tell ya both those ladies sure know how to cook. Then I get married and my wife has no clue ROFL!!! She is getting a bit better in the 11 years we have been married but she is no Martha Stewart HAHA!!! My son the other night told her that he cooking was bad, I though I was going to bust a gut trying not to laugh. He even went so far is to fake death!!!
