We are doing canned cranberry sauce, but that's only because I'm really the only one who likes it and making a whole batch of homemade just for me is a bit much. If you want a recipe, use equal amounts by volume of fresh cranberries and pomegranate juice with a cinnamon stick in it. Cook over medium heat until jelly-like in consistency.


I'm not a fan of cranberry sauce, but my cousin used to bring a cranberry relish to thanksgiving dinner. It was great. Cranberries, orange juice and zest, I think some lemon juice and sugar. Not 100% what else was in it. Just remember it being sour, sweet, and chunky.


That's how this one comes out. The pomegranate juice has a very complex flavor that replaces the citrus and the sugar while also re-enforcing the red color. I've made a version with orange juice, ginger ale, orange zest and cinnamon. It's also pretty easy to make, but not nearly as easy as just cranberries and pom juice and a cinnamon stick.

You know, a lower case 'm' looks a lot like like lower case 'rn'.

It's fairly distracting.

The Man and I went to Ken's House of Pancakes where he had their Thanksgiving Dinner special, and I had breakfast. Then I dropped him off at work and came home to give the puppy half of his left over turkey. I am now cooking a corned beef, and yummy corned beef sandwiches will be enjoyed muchly this evening.

We are thinking of going to see "Rise of the Guardians" tonight. He doesn't get off work until 5:30 so I'll be playing Sims until then, most likely.

My grandmother made some this time.

It had Cranberries, Apples, Oranges (I think it had rind and all), Sugar, nuts (walnuts maybe... I couldn't tell) and I think she said she put some gelatin in it. She put it all through a meat grinder and then just put it in the fridge. Not cooked.
