Sometimes the simplest desserts are some of the best. This one is so delicious and super simple to make. It's the perfect end to a savory winter meal.
Bring the water, sugar, and cinnamon sticks to a simmer in a small saucepan. Cook until the sugar dissolves. Arrange clementine/tangerine slices in a medium size bowl. Pour warm syrup (including cinnamon sticks) over the top of the fruit and let it stand for 30 minutes (or longer). Remove cinnamon sticks. Spoon fruit and syrup into individual bowls and enjoy!

If you have never made fresh cranberry sauce for your Thanksgiving table, please give this easy recipe a try. I promise, you will never eat the canned stuff again! The great thing about this sauce is that you can make it all winter long to accompany a chicken dinner or spread on a turkey sandwich. The lime zest gives it a yummy lift. Enjoy!
Combine all the ingredients in a pot over low heat and cover. Cook for about 15 minutes or until the cranberries burst and are soft, stirring occasionally. Serve warm or cold. (You can also freeze it!)
