1/2 c butter

8 c dry bread cubes or about 14 pieces of bread (half white/half wheat).

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1 tsp poultry seasoning*

1 tsp sage

1/4 c chicken broth

1. A few days before...cut bread into 1/2" cubes, place on baking sheet.  Place in 200 degree oven (turn off).  Let sit in there a few days.  Use a sticky note so you don't preheat your oven with them in there!  Or bake at 250 for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.  When completely dried and cooked, place in airtight container.
2. Cook onion and celery in butter.  
3. Add bread crumbs and seasonings and mix.
4. Toss with enough broth to moisten.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes covered, or in crockpot on low for about 2 hours.

1/2 tsp sage

1/4 tsp thyme

1/4 tsp marjoram
