wwyd 14.0

kimberly and i are back for another round 

with thanksgiving right around the corner, we want to know
WHAT WOULD YOU DO...
with a bag of cranberries?
we talked about crafts or recipes or both. i decided to cook with them since i never did before. i even had to google how to use them. turns out the instructions are on the bag, and you use them like any other fresh fruit. i like the look of fresh cranberries in drinks,but that's about as much as i have used them in the past.

first up...drinks


pretty simple
sprite zero
lime
cranberries (best if frozen)

next...cranberry lime bread


confession...i planned to make cranberry orange muffins, but i forgot to buy an orange at the store. it was sunday so i just used what i had. i actually really liked the flavor especially in combination with the drink.

white cake
1/2 c unsweetened applesauce
1/4 c fresh lime juice
lime zest
2 eggs
1/4 c water
1/2 bag fresh cranberries
mix all ingredients together
bake 350 degrees for 40 minutes

i can't wait to see what kimberly did with her cranberries.
do you have any good recipes or crafts with cranberries? link up below.

  3. Have you seen that they sell Cranberry sprite now? It is AMAZING! But I have a feeling real cranberries would make it taste so much better.

  4. If I had a bag of cranberries, I'd hand it over to my husband, who'd rip it open and start pouring it into his mouth! He loves cranberries--he'll even chug down straight cranberry juice!
