Every year at Thanksgiving, my family makes two proper dressings: one oyster dressing and one sausage dressing. Why we don’t combine the two into one to keep it simple (and save space at the table), I’m not sure, but I’m not mad about the abundance of dressing. It’s my favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal, next to my mom’s homemade cranberry sauce, and I enjoy how everything ends up mixing and mingling on the plate anyway.
