what could the ingredient they say she described as chopped parsley Be?
The article says she described it as chopped 'parsalry'. They are bringing her spelling error to your attention.

It was probably Italian parsley. Mary Jane doesn’t work too well in recipes as poor Alice B. Toklas found out.

Someone has her “thoughts” of what she used? They finally found Marilyn’s diary?

I find the concept of Marilyn being an actual great cook dubious. From the story, she just wrote down the recipe. There’s nothing to believe she actually made it, even once.
I remember a story Robert Mitchum told about Marilyn making him a drink.
She took a glass, and put some vodka in it, then some tequila in it, then some whiskey in it, then some Mogan David wine in it.
I asked her
“Marilyn, what are you doing?”
She replied
“Isn’t that a cocktail?”
I said to myself, if she cooks like she tends bar, I can’t handle it.

Didn't Robert Mitchum used to pull the orange trick? When producers/directors would ban alcohol from the set, he'd get a basket of oranges delivered to his trailer and fill them with vodka using a syringe.

In any event, either way, I'm very confident you got the message.
I occasionally use voice recognition software. Sometimes it screws up. It's really good, but not perfect.
Interesting you would take the time to PM me about that?
Cheers!

I PM’d because I didn’t want you to think I was publicly criticizing. Voice recognition software explains it, though. Have a nice weekend.

I just like to keep things out in the open, in public...I have a thick hide and I’m never embarrassed by the misuse or misspelling of a word. It’s just no biggy.
You too, have a great weekend.

Sorry, but when I think of “stuffing” and Marilyn Monroe, I get a different vibe than anything from the kitchen.
This article must have been written as a pun.
