Happy Cransgiving

Ryan and I were put on cranberry duty for this year's "widows and orphans" thanksgiving, hosted by my dad's friend Lee. I made some adjustments to the recipe and it was amazingly good. Even Lee said afterwards that no one ever eats the cranberries, and our dish was licked dry. (Well, it wasn't licked, but I'm sure someone tried). Anyway, in the spirit of giving and all that, here's the recipe for Totally Awesome Cranappleness:

1 bag cranberries
2 cups sugar
2 cups orange juice
2 cups chopped and peeled Granny Smith apples
1 cup dried Bing cherries

Place all ingredients in large pot on medium heat. Cook until cranberries pop and then continue cooking at a simmer for about 10 minutes or until it becomes thick. Refrigerate.
