Canned Cranberry: Love It or Hate It?
When I was growing up, canned cranberry jelly was a part of our menu every Thanksgiving. With it's rich color, cylindrical shape, and smooth coolness, it was one of my favorite parts of the meal.

This story was written by member jadenirvana and comes from the Savory Sights group in the YumSugar Community.
