We eat cornbread dressing for Thanksgiving & Christmas. I cook a skillet of cornbread (buttermilk, no sugar) add chopped celery, chopped white & green onions, salt, pepper, a little sage, eggs, a package of chicken Stove Top and chicken broth. Put it in a 350 degree oven and bake for an hour to 1.5 hours. You can make it up a day or two ahead and refrigerate and then do the actual baking on the day you need it. Same with most other things and I agree on asking others to bring their own "specialty" be it a dessert or a side dish. Setting the table ahead is something I wish I had thought of myself.

My mother in law also has a fantastic cranberry sauce with strawberries and pineapple in it. (I'm not crazy about plain cranberries). It is now 4:06 am and if you are interested I will get these recipes for you. Let me know.

I also agree to cook the larger turkey (you can also cook them in a bag for a really shortened time).

My recipe is similar tear up bread, cut up onion, celery, add some seasoning and chicken broth mix thoroughly, I always make lots of it, so that I stuff the bird and also some for the side. Sometimes I add chicken to it, it is really good.
