Happy Thanksgiving!

well, i don't know of any thanksgiving books... instead, my favorite cranberry recipes, one of which i am having this tday, the other of which i'll have to wait for til i get home. why do we only eat cranberries at the holidays? they're wonderful and such a pretty color!

Pumpkin Cranberry Bread (recipe care of KRB and what i made for KS's family as a thank you)

In one bowl, mix 2 1/2 cups flour, 2tsp baking powder, 1tbs pumpkin pie spice, and 1/2tsp salt.
In another bowl, mix 2 eggs, 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup oil, 15oz can pumpkin. Mix the two together and fold in 1 cup cranberries. Pour into two loaf pans and bake at 350 for 60 minutes.

Resist if you can! having to wrap the loaves up instead of eating them right away was terribly difficult...




Orange Cranberry Relish


1 bag cranberries, 1 orange (peel and all), 1 cup sugar. put through food processor. enjoy. So much better than the canned stuff. so gorgeous. so tart and sunny in your mouth. add more sugar if necessary.

hope everyone is warm and cozy and full of good food and love, or will be soon
