'Serenity'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
They sugar-coat craisins? Crazy.
cranberries are way too tart to be mass-marketed to the public without sugar. Which is why it is harder (IME) to find unsweetened cranberry juice, and why it tastes godawful (IMO). Ocean Spray probably uses as much sugar as cranberry in their assorted products.
Although, what do I know. [link]

Yeah - you generally have to go to a natural foods store to find it. I think Trader Joe's carries it, too.
It would be nice if they could sweeten them less. When I substitute them for raisins in cookies, I have to drop the sugar added quite a bit. Thought I could eat them straight out of the bag, but no can do.
Dude, steph--does your cell phone work? I can never get a hold of you!
Though, on my original point, that Craisins have sugar, on the Ocean Spray website, they are listed as "Sweetened Dried Cranberries."

Oh, crap, I'm sorry. I tend not to answer it at work, because I get the Personal Call Dirty Look from the boss. And then the not-returning-calls-after-work thing is just because I am lazy and a shitty friend. Sorry.
I can't believe I didn't know there's a restaurant called Monkey Noodles. I have to go there.
Off to mail my Bitch Blanket, yay! Then on to visit the hospital, where there may be a chance of Ugly Familial Drama. May the powers that be allow that I behave in a dignified fashion when I would rather kick knees and pull hair.
Ugh.
Is my life over yet? I am so sick of this asthma. I am so sick of it disrupting my perfectly good life. I am so thankful that I have therapy this afternoon so I can go bitch and bitch and bitch.

Right. So not for the weakwilled. But given the alternative, I'll take having my mouth pucker so badly my lips end up in the back of my mouth in exchange for the shaky, fevery stuff. I'm tough that way.
And I'm psyched about the 'more cranberry products coming' link. Good for my health, good for the bog farmers!
