I hope that everyone had a fun and safe New Year's Eve!
Does anyone have any resolutions? I kind of feel like they're pointless and hard to follow through with, so I don't normally make any. My friend had a really good one last year. It was to take a random picture every day and then at the end of each month, frame your favorite one, and then by the end of the year, you'll have a 12-picture collage of your favorite shots that year. Unfortunately, she only made it through January last year. Haha! Mine should be to stay off of Facebook. I hate you Mark Zuckerberg, for taking over my life.
Anyway, back to this bread.
I found some cranberries in my fridge that I had intended on using for some festive Thanksgiving baking the other day and decided that that probably wasn't going to happen, considering Thanksgiving was over quite a while ago. So I made this bread, and some dip, too... but I'll share that next. I don't really like cranberries much and I've never used them to bake before, but this bread was a good decision.
Everyone else thought so, too...which is why I didn't have time to take a better picture of it. I hope it doesn't look TOO unappealing, because it's not at all!
