The blog title tells the most important things in my life. I'm also a recently certified teacher (substitute teaching and looking for a full-time teaching position) and a recent Catholic convert (Tiber Swim Team 2011). I love reading, gardening, thinking and living in the rural Midwest. Did I mention I love God, my family, and baseball?

Cranberry-Orange Compote
This is a bit different than most cranberry relishes as the cranberries aren't cooked. I really like it, though I am the only one in our family who does!
2 12-ounce packages fresh or frozen cranberries
1 seedless orange, peeled and quartered
1 lemon, peeled, seeded and quartered
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup peacn pieces
1/4 cup Cognac or brandy (I've never used this!)
Using quick pulses of the food processor, chop half of cranberries and half of each orange and lemon quarters. Remove to large bowl and repeat with other half of cranberries and fruit. Stir in sugar, pecans, and Cognac into berry mixture. Taste and add sugar to taste. Chill overnight. Makes about 3 1/2 cups.
