Cranberry Sauce

I have always 


I have always eaten dried cranberries. This time I had the chance to taste some fresh cranberries. They were not as tart as I had expected it to be. Slightly sour but still nice to eat. I bought a large bag of cranberries that were on sale. I was the only one munching on the fresh cranberries and since I could not eat all of it I decided to make cranberry sauce.
Fresh Cranberries - just love the red color
