beautiful Nan.. you know I always look forward to a Nan sonnet...and Im always impressed and taken by them the pic is lovely.the colors enchance the poems imagery perfectly.. I was thinking...something so small a single cranberry..yet it is one of the most widely shared traditions at our holiday tables ... and always will be. what grapes are to wine...cranberry is to stuffing  you've penned a perfect tribute. jm |

I liked it just saying for Mark and not mentioning the challenge LOL...  This is beautiful Nan. The words and the sonnet. I guess you know that I love sonnets and am working real hard to do my first one. You have penned a beauty and you know I am saving this one don't you? Yeah you do. BTW...will you email me and tell me how to get the poem on the background?Thanks |

There's nothing like homemade cranberry sauce(Ocean Spray, of course) It's so easy even I can do it, and there's nothing that compares to a sonnet by Nan, of course! This is delightful, Nan! Denise |

okay I didn't complain much when you edited it from saying for Mark to for Mark's challenge but NOW I am complaining...(sweetly though on my hands and knees) about my e-mail not being in yet. Just a "Sweet" reminder ya know....not pushing or anything. (tapping fingers) I just didn't want you to forget that I existed . ( pacing floor). Oh, and it wouldn't be right for me to come by for some more of "YOUR" ocean "SPRAY" and not tell you just how wonderfully "SWEET" I found it to be. Still loving it much. Very "BEAUTIFUL" and ful"FILLING" sonnet from you.  |

Thanks again, all... serenity - Somehow I always seem to be "volunteering"... and you can have the recipe.. Denise - Shhhh - Don't tell them it's only a bag of cranberries, a cup of water, and a cup of sugar boiled together... That was it, wasn't it? Bill - Thank ya, thank ya... Been there, eh? Elizabeth - So come visit!! Mark - Don't look now, but I changed it again... and I'll email you tomorrow.. |
