Fruit of the week

Last week's "new" fruit/Veg of the week was cranberries. Not Craisins, not Cranberry sauce, not cranberry juice cocktail. Tart was an understatement, so I wasn't sure if maybe they just weren't ripe enough... Today I got a bottle of unsweetened Cranberry Juice from Whole Foods to compare. Nope, the berries I have are fine - that's just what real cranberry is all about, I guess. : ) I did find that cranberries did very well in salad and will probably be good for cooking, but I can't handle more than 4 or 5 at a time by themselves. : ) I wonder if they'll explode when heated?

Next week (aka this week): Sugar (pie) pumpkin. Can't wait!
