  1. Well Kim, all very commendable but wouldn't a real chef make their own REAL stuffing by using fresh herbs, sausagemeat flour, eggs etc etc And while on the subject of real....Have you yet to learn how to "make" gravy from meat stock... Tut Tut I Only 7 out of 10 this time. I would hope to mark higher for your next attempt
