Recipe Lost

I have a cornbread dressing recipe that I have had for more than 30 years.  I can visualize, written on an index card, in the handwriting of the co-worker who gave it to me.  It is a fairly simple recipe.  And, I have used it, sometimes more than once a year. Some years, though, I do other things.

My employer, last year, gave out gift certificates for turkeys, and I did not redeem mine until this month.  So, I am cooking a turkey for Thanksgiving.  And, I am making cornbread dressing.  I was a little unhappy tonight when I could not find the recipe card, but decided it did not matter. I know what I am doing and how to make this dressing.  I know the recipe card is somewhere, I just did not go through every piece of paper I have to look for it. 

My dressing will be fine.
