She’s Cooking Again
Today I’ve decided to make homemade cranberry sauce. It’s really good, and so easy to make.
I like to have it for holiday dinners, and also for any leftover turkey meals that may linger.
This recipe is straight from the bag of cranberries we bought yesterday.
Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 12-ounce package Ocean Spray® Fresh or Frozen Cranberries, rinsed and drained.
Combine water and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to boil; add cranberries, return to boil. Reduce heat and boil gently for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cool completely at room temperature. Refrigerate until serving time. Makes 2 1/4 cups.

Not a Good Day
Yesterday was a difficult day for me. About 2 miles before I got to work, and at about 6:15am, I hit a deer – rather a deer hit me.
I didn’t even know anything was happening until the deer hit and shattered my windshield.
The car continued to operate, and I just drove on to work.
I couldn’t get out of the driver’s side - the car was well hit.
The guard at work called the police, and I called all the other folks, insurance and towing company. Don came over to rescue me, and the car was taken away. I won’t see it for anywhere from 2-4 weeks while it’s in for repairs.
I have been reasonably ok, but walked around with a red face and talking fast for several hours. I am fine, just a little shaken.
The poor deer and my poor car didn’t fare as well.
