Cranberry Salad

Cranberry Salad A friend of our family brought us over some of this cranberry salad after my surgery. It was one of the things that sat well with my stomach.

We all have decisions to make about our time and priorities. It’s pretty much impossible to get everything done that we’d like to accomplish each day even if we cut out all tv or other things viewed as time wasters.
