We always overkill a Holiday Meal Cook but I guess that's what it's all about. So this morning I got busy fixing some snackin stuff and also chopping up stuff that will go into the Cornbread Dressing and Giblet Gravy.

Last of the Pre-Game Ceremony for the Kawn-Bread Dress'n - - - got the main players suited up and ready for crumblin action tomorrow mawn'n. Still tryin to decide whether I want to pre-sautee the chopped veggies in oleo or bake them raw in the mix ? I've done it both ways but I can't remember which "everyone" (an important word for tomorrow) liked the best. :scratch:

Got to sweat down the veggies prior to mixing if you follow my old family recipe. Just get em translucent and throw it all together.

I think that's the way I'll do them this time - - - some like the slight veggie crunch in the dressing and some don't - - - tomorrow they ain't getting no crunch :salut:
