I've never made stuffing from scratch either, so there will be quite a few firsts here for me. I'm looking forward to making this.

Thanks Barb and Lifesaver! It's great to make on a day when you're really pissed. It takes a while to pound out the meat and you can get out a lot of frustration! :lol:
