CRANBERRY DATE BARS
My friend Susan, in Albuquerque, gave me this recipe. Her sister, Robin, gave it to her, and through a little research, I have found that it came originally from Taste of Home. I should have known that immediately! Love those recipes from TOH! Photo: http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Winning-Cranberry-Date-Bars

CRANBERRY OR PINEAPPLE CARAMELS
This is a favorite Christmas candy in my family. The cranberry caramels are a little tart with the sweet and you can really taste the butter in the pineapple caramels.

Steps:
- Butter a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
- Combine cranberries, sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a heavy, large saucepan; bring to a boil. Heat to 245 degrees F (118 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Gradually stir cream and butter into cranberry mixture, keeping the boil steady. Cook until 245 degrees F (118 degrees C) is reached again, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Cool caramel in pan on a wire rack, about 1 hour. Remove caramel from pan, cut, and wrap individually or serve from pan.

- Turn on music and put on a cute apron. Both of these things make baking more awesome. Also, preheat your oven to 350. :)
- Into a large bowl, measure out 2 cups of whole wheat pastry flour (or white flour — do NOT use regular whole wheat flour — it will be a dense disaster)! Add in 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 2 cups of oats, 1/3 cup of regular sugar. And 1/3 cup of brown sugar, firmly packed. Put some muscle into it! Stir the flour/oats/sugar mixture together
