I think I cabbaged the original recipe from a "Southern Living" magazine I spirited away from a doctor's office. I've made this several different ways over the years and it's always good. Whitebread stuffing with sage is good too. I've put apples, raisins and pecans in there also. I don't think there is any way to mess this up.

Emailed this to Mrs. Cow who is sitting about 30 feet away at the moment.
Just e-mailed to my wife who is sitting about five feet away 🙂
About an hour later I heard, "So, when did you start collecting recipes?"
You actually "TOUCH" the magazines in a physicians office?????? :skull:;)

Scary isn't it? Touched the doorknob to get in there and put my hands on the reception desk and signed in with a pen with some sick-o's drool all over it...it's a real wasteland out there...
Though this isn't a food & wine forum, I decided to give this recipe a try as I fancy myself as half way competent in the kitchen, mostly from necessity for someone who enjoys good eats. The significant other is thousands of miles away taking care of her Mom and I don't do Swanson TV dinners, ever.
Cheers and in my best Julia Childs voice, bon appetite!

I guess we could discuss whether red or white would be an appropriate libation to enjoy with the recipe. I'll dispense with all that and make the 'wine' question simple: When should you drink white wine? Easy answer: when all the red wine is gone.
As for the squash recipe I had wished a cold Miller High Life with mine, and thought there was one in the fridge. But I had forgotten that bottle went away when Rodgers and the Pack put a whoopin' on the Detroit Kittens last week.
I had to settle for a room temp Guinness from the pantry. It was perfect and eloquent.
What's the problem? Don't want to change out of your jammies for the second time in a week just to go buy some adult libations?

Well, you can't buy beer in Oklahoma...real beer anyway. If I want a Miller I have to drive south of the Red River. And we all know how friendly people down there are toward folks with plates only on the rear bumper of their car.

I'm not really against "govt. regulations", just the stupid ones. If I wake up in the middle of the night and unauthorized personnel are moving about within the confines of my domicile the government regulations allow me to blow their gizzards all over the dining room wall. That's a good regulation.
Writing me a ticket for my dead leaves in the fall that have blown into the street is silly.
Personally, I would consider this no real beer law be considered stupid, but maybe there is some stats that it has reduced drunk driving or something. I also read about no refrigerated beer allowed to be sold in OK. This doesn't make sense either, if you're an alcoholic, you'll drink that beer right away, luke warm or ice cold. If not, you can break them up and get em' cold in the freezer in about a half hour.

One of the inane local regulations around here was the sign regulations. There are very strict regs on commercial signs and even stricter in the historic district. I have no problem with that. But I have had some problematic encounters with the "Sign Police". I did some volunteer work for nonprofit and semiannually would have to post notices and some signs around town that would be confiscated. I would be threatened with fines but I would remind them that they overlooked some other groups. I would also play the game with them to bust their chops.
The final straw was when they confiscated some signs for a lost dog by some elderly woman.
After the big storm 10 years ago, lawn signs proliferated around for roofers, construction,carpentry, satellite tv etc. so the city passed the strict law basically banning every type of sign except real estate and political signs.
Lost pets, yard sales, charity events signs temporary in nature etc were illegal.
But when they popped the old lady who lost her dog and some reporters and social media got on the story, they were faced to amend the law.
It still a little asinine but one can find the loopholes

A few months ago I was contacted by one of the adjacent county's incumbent sheriffs who was running for re-election. An adversarial City official had picked up the torch and was "policing" the sheriff's "re-elect me!" signs that he felt were NOT on private property. City ordinance does not allow them on R/W.
I explained actually determining the location of the signs by a survey could get expensive and we chatted a bit more (I admit it, I was kissing ass). I finally got on Google Earth at a location he was most interested in and could tell, at a minimum, the fence was well outside of the actual R/W line. I told him I could meet him out there. We got lucky and found a couple of pins and "flagged" a rough R/W line. The sheriff felt the removed signs had been outside of that line.
He contacted the City and the "sign police" brought the signs back out. I told the sheriff to NOT mention my name...
btw - he was re-elected
