Cranberry Marmelade

We did get quite a bit of snow last night. Before the snow started we got some freezing rain, so shoveling was hard work.
I took my boys for an off leash walk just after 3 pm when it started snowing yet again. So beautiful.
I guess, I get to shovel again tomorrow.

My days off were very quiet and somewhat productive. The floors got a good scrubbing and vacuuming.

I watched another Marilyn Monroe documentary and found it to be very interesting and quite different from another I had seen a few weeks ago. I guess her life will remain a mystery. Too bad!

Here is my little polar bear being as happy as can be in the snow. He does snow angels any time he can. So cute.

I had bought some cranberries awhile ago and never made them into a smoothie or pie or ...
So this afternoon I used one of my marmalade sugars and turned them just into that:
Cranberry marmelade.

Recipe: 2 bags of fresh cranberries
             Einmachzucker from Germany (half the weight of the cranberries)
Add both the cranberries and the sugar to a put and heat on medium heat stirring constantly. Once the cranberries are getting soft purred them with a submersion blender.
Once the mass is boiling keep it broiling while stirring for 4 minutes then fill it into prepared glasses.
I cannot wait to eat it.

I am in my second week of the Commit to Fit Weight Loss Challenge and just had a meeting with the dietician who is overseeing the program. Very interesting!
I do want to reach my dream weight AND KEEP IT!!!

Today I love the
sight of snow
feel of snow
sound of the Gold and Silver Waltz by Lehar
taste of freshly made marmalade
smell of Chanel No 5 (what can I say, I am a fan)
