Grandma's Dressing

My grandma has made this dressing every Thanksgiving since I can remember. There was no recipe, just all done on instinct until I forced her to tell me how she did it! :) Here is what we got:

1/2 an 8 inch skillet of cornbread
1 loaf of bread (think American sized loafs!), crumbled
2 packages Monaco crackers
1 c. chopped onion, cooked
1/2 c. chopped celery, cooked (if you can get this, if not, it's okay, you can throw in some dried celery if you have it, or nothing...)
Rubbed sage, till it smells good :) (That's what Grandma said!) (approx, 1 tsp)
3-4 cups of drippings, broth, almost boiling (I use chicken broth)
1/2 stick butter
1 egg

Toast half the loaf of bread. Crumble all the breads and crackers together in a 9x13 pan. Add the onion and celery and sage, combine well. Add enough liquid to look soupy, and the butter. Stir the egg in the hot mixture. Bake at 150 for an hour.
