Thanksgiving Stuffing (revisited)

Everyone says their Mom makes the best 1. Chocolate Chip Cookies 2. Potato Salad 3. Thanksgiving Stuffing. Well... my sister-in-law actually makes the best Chocolate Chip Cookies and I make the best Potato Salad. But I swear, my Mom makes the BEST Thanksgiving Stuffing ever! The funny thing is, it was until I was in my late 20s when I realized she was using the recipe on the back of the Pepperidge Farm package of stuffing. It was like that episode of Friends where Monica realizes Phoebe's Grandma's cookie recipe was from the back of a Nestle Tollhouse package of chocolate chips. Anyway, I didn't care. My Mom's stuffing is still the best.
