Sounds like Sheldon added too much liquid, too. Regardless of whether I
make stuffing from scratch or do a Stove Top stuffing "cheat", I never
add all the liquid the recipe calls for at once. I will say, while Ed's
sounds like a fine cheat, I have never liked apples in stuffing. I ate
it at my brothers' house a couple of times, but just to be polite.
