I’ve begun Thanksgiving holiday cooking early this year because I’ll be otherwise occupied on Wednesday when I’d normally be cooking up a storm.
Mama adores homemade cranberry sauce and so I whipped up a giant batch of it and added Grand Marnier for an extra kick. The sauce was so tasty that we featured it in tonight’s dinner as well!
Today’s #OneGoodThing with Mama was Grand Marnier cranberry sauce! What was your #OneGoodThing today? Please share in the comments! And remember, kindness is everything!

That sounds tasty. Any recipe favorites you’d like to share? This will be my first time cooking for thanksgiving. Usually we go to my in-laws. But we’re staying isolated this year of course. So I’ll have to do the cooking.

Cranberry sauce is super easy to make! I didn’t really follow a recipe, but here’s what I did… put one bag of rinsed fresh cranberries in a pot on the stovetop with about 1/2 Cup orange juice, 1/2 Cup water, and 1/2 Cup cane sugar. Add the zest of one orange. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. The berries will start to pop. Once it cooks down and starts looking sauce-like, taste it. This is the time to add more sugar if you find it too tart. Also, add the Grand Marnier around this time and stir. The sauce will thicken as it cools. Enjoy! And let me know how it goes!!!!
