This recipe was invented by my maternal grandmother and has been on our Thanksgiving table all of my 75 years. After Gram was gone, Mom took up the "baton," and made the cranberry sauce, which then became my responsibility some 15 years ago. It looks far too simple to be as yummy as it actually is. People who hate cranberry...
