I am literally counting down the days til we head out to Alberta for the holidays. We are spending it on my sister’s farm just outside of Edmonton. And while I am not looking forward to the dry cold weather that will greet me, I am very excited to see my sister, brother in law and nephew. But most importantly, I am looking forward to seeing Mamacita Manning. I guess it’s true that no matter how old we get, we still love the comfort that our mom’s bring to our lives.Mamacita Manning is on a break from chemotherapy and is feeling really good. 2016 has been a tough year for her so when I asked her what she wanted for Christmas this year and she told me nothing, I decided the best gift to give her would be food. I made this cranberry sauce last year and she absolutely LOVED it. So I decided to get a batch made before we headed out west, so that it could be a part of the gift I give her. Anything to spur on her appetite.Super Easy Cranberry Sauce with a KickIngredients4 cups frozen cranberries1 cup Orange Juice1/2 cup water1 tbsp grated orange rind5 cups sugar1 jalapeno pepper chopped1 tsp Damien’s Lima Zulu Hot sauce1 – 3oz package liquid pectin
