We were 2 different dishes of stuffing family too. My nephew started demanding the boxed stuff (Stovetop Stuffing) when he was about 5 or 6 while the rest of us loved my mom's giblet rice stuffing. These days I combine the two recipes into my favourite part of the Thanksgiving meal. I even cheat by using Zatarain's dirty rice boxed mix along with the Stovetop.
I liked having the leftovers to eat all week too especially as I only ever had a sliver of turkey at the main meal while I gorged on the pounded and then breaded veal cutlets. My brother used to make a sandwich with the dinner rolls/buns and the cutlets. And I ate the garlicky, paprika sausage that she baked in a small casserole dish.
In later years my brother and SIL were not shy about asking for leftovers to take home and by the time they left, there wasn't much left over for US.
