...and Now, The Final Word:
Leaving home of friends who had us over for Thanksgiving dinner.
Tall blonde Midwestern hostess hands me two containers. One is empty.
TBMH: Here's your Servin' Saver. I kept the rest of that cranberry sauce. It was delicious.
The second container is full of a different cranberry sauce DIH thoughfully provided.
DIH: Don't you want to keep the rest of this?
TBMH: Oh, nobody liked that one.

After much reluctance, my public has come to acknowledged that my cranberry stuff beats the daylights out of that pectin-engorged stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe classic stuff always beats the new, kinda like the Tridentine Mass having it all over the bongos-and-tambourine-and-kumbaya stuff.
I'm just sayin'.

Joke: there is one respectable use for the canned stuff.
ReplyDelete1 can whole cran. sauce, a quarter cup chopped onion, 3/4 c. orange juice, 1/4 tsp. each cinnamon and ginger.
Simmer 30 -40 min. Ooh la la.
OMGosh I can't believe she said that to you. Back to charm school with her. Did you reply to her?
