Happy thanksgiving (with recipe)

Thanksgiving is one of the reasons November is my favorite month. The food, the family, the camraderie, the laughter...it's a wonderful holiday. An unspoiled warm moment in life, and I hope everyone has a good one.

For those in a last-second bind, below is one of my favorite recipes of all time:
Apple Pecan Stuffing








1/3 cup Butter, divided 1/8 tsp Ground sage
2/3 cup Diced onion1/8 tsp Ground marjoram
2/3 cup Diced celery1/8 tsp Ground thyme
3 cup Diced apples1/2 tsp Dried parsley flakes
3 cup Day-old bread1/2 cup Chopped pecans
1 tsp Salt1/2 cup Water
1/2 tsp Black pepper


1. Melt 1/4 cup butter into skillet
2. Add onion and celery. Cook until tender.
3. Add to bread.
4. Melt remaining butter in skillet.
5. Stir in apples.
6. Cook until golden.
7. Add apples to bread mixture.
8. Mix in salt, pepper, sage, marjoram, thyme, parsley, and pecans.
9. Add water and mix thoroughly.

Makes enough for a ten pound turkey.
