(Also, anyone have any stellar stuffing recipes? I have a generic, boring one. I also have one that requires baking in a sugar pumpkin, but everyone seems to have discarded their pumpkins already  )

Corn bread stuffing.
1) take left over corn bread and cut them into 1/2-inch sized cubes.
2) Season lightly to your liking (I like a little bit of dried rosemary, basil, and thyme)
3) Bake until crispy (essentially you're making croutons, here).
4) Chop an onion, some celery, and carrot to smaller-than bite-size cube/squares.
5) Grease a pan with butter.
6) Throw in the onions and saute until translucent, then throw in the celery and carrots.
7) Saute for a couple minutes. Season lightly with some salt and pepper.
8) Sift in about a half a handful of flour and mix.
9) Add maybe a quarter cup or less of chicken broth slowly and mix.
10. Add in a small can of Cambell's cream of chicken condensed soup.
11) When the whole thing looks like a decent rue, throw in the croutons, dried cranberries, and pine nuts if you've got 'em.
12) Bake--you can do it as dressing (outside the bird) or as stuffing (shoving it into every crevace takes some elbow grease). I dunno about temperature. I tried at 325~350 (my oven is very finicky) but got decent results.
It's a little Sandra Lee-ish but the results are okay.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
