There is nothing more comforting than an old, worn and stained recipe card. You can truly feel the baked love through the faded handwriting of mothers long ago.

  • 1 ½ tsp. baking soda

Clementines in Cinnamon Syrup

Submitted by Gail Junion-Metz
 

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.

  • 1 C. water
  • 1/2 C. sugar
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 8 clementines (or tangerines) peeled and thinly sliced crosswise

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!

Delicious Fresh Cranberry Sauce

Submitted by Linda Hundt 
 

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! 

  • 4 cups of fresh cranberries
  • Zest of one large orange
  • Zest of one lime
  • 2 cups of sugar
  • 1 cup of water 

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!)
