Thanks, I'm going to have to put this away for down the track when the
cranberries overflow.

It's very runny?

Not runny, no. Just not as congealed as cranberry sauce normally
is. Think of it as a chutney.

If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn’t
help the poor, either we’ve got to pretend that Jesus
was just as selfish as we are, or we’ve got to acknowledge
that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy
without condition, and then admit that we just don’t
want to do it.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm, I'll have to start compiling a list of different sauces/jams
etc to make.

That, along with the smokehouse I'm going to build to smoke my own
salmon/fish/chicken etc, should keep me busy and earn a few $$'s selling
them at the markets :-)

The cranberry and candied orange chutney recipe on Epicurious is quite
good if you double the cranberry component.

Cranberries freeze quite well. When they are plentiful at the stores of
the big box club, I buy a huge bag and freeze it. We are invited to have
a post-Christmas dinner at our neighbor's. She is making a turkey. I
offered to bring cranberry sauce. Her husband loves the cranberry sauce
I make. He uses it like preserves putting it on toast and biscuits.

My new house has a plethora of berry bushes, and I've been told there's a
ton of cranberries each year, so if you're willing to give up your private
recipe, I'd love to have it :-)
