Since the fresh ones are only available around Thanksgiving, I like to stock up, put them on a (rimmed) baking sheet, and stick the sheet in the freezer. When the cranberries are frozen, I just dump them in a plastic bag and use them as needed.

We don't have insurance right now and I looked online for a prescription discount card. I found a great one! At www.rxdrugcard.com I could look up prices before I signed up. And then when I did sign up, I could print out my own ID card and go to the pharmacy that very day! The freezer is a good way to save money, but I’ve found another.

I got a nice(?) surprise one day, he had been to the farmers market and bought a big bag of onions. (He loves a bargain if not onions.) I realized they were seconds and would go bad soon so I chopped and froze half of them. You can just throw them in your dish - they will disappear but the flavor is good. I tried another way too. I roasted some in oil and froze them afterward. Anyone have experience with that? CG Hi,
