I've got a problem with cranberries...too many childhood utis, too much forced cran juice. I have the best of all possible worlds here. Not actually having money or a place in society from a job. But still getting to feel what it's like to lose one. Awesome. I know you're all jealous.
We're in love. We're ... lovers. We're lesbian, gay-type lovers.

Any allspice or mace, Plei? I like the warm sound of yours-- not that I have anything against orange, it just doesn't always agree with me.
I'll throw in a few complimentary spices depending on the mood, and often those are among them. It's a nice, rich flavor.

I'm getting the pig!
Yay, Erin! Congrats!
Put me in the canned cranberry gel corner.
buffistas have some sort of weird magic power
That's what I'm counting on...
If'n y'all could cross your fingers for me between 3:30 and 4:30p MST, I would really appreciate it. This will be the first showing on my townhome since I put it on the market, and I'd really love it if it sold relatively soon.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
I'm sorry, Erika.
Go Erin! Congratulations!
I love cranberries! Either canned or fresh is fine with me. I do have a soft spot for the canned stuff, though. My younger brother and I would fight over the last bit of it every year.
Now I'm having to substitute a craving for the stuff with a glass of cranberry juice.
IOmemeN: The amazing thing about having a day off is being able to take a nap and not feel guilty about it! I slept for about 3 hours this afternoon. It was awesome.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Yay Erin!
Sorry about the bad news, erika. Good luck finding something to fill the void.
I love cranberries in all the way you can make them, from gelled to whole to cookies to pie. Mmmm, pie.

Sorry, erika.
Yay, Erin!
Someone over in HR posted the wrong text for a job we've got open here. I'm trying not to kill or maim anyone, but it's so hard.

Erin, that's wonderful!
I usually do my cranberries with port, a healthy amount of nutmeg, and a dash of vanilla. I believe I still have a jar from last year (when I got smart, and actually canned the stuff instead of having to rush to make it before the big day).
Plei, I think you should make more of that particular recipe and can lots of it. I will buy you jars.
Am at the office. DO NOT WANT. Why am I not in the Haunted Mansion, which is clearly where I belong?
