the gift of granola

A few months ago I figured out that I should always have granola in the house when my sister comes to visit. One, because I can't eat all of that granola (although I could freeze it); and two, because she also loves homemade granola. So I decided to try this Cranberry Orange Granola. Why this one? The flavors, of course. Although I must say the flavors of maple and cinnamon are what come through the strongest. I'm glad no one was around during my taste-testing; I was really sucking on a granola cluster till I picked up on the orange flavor. So it is there. And it was fun making the orange sugar. I would like to try that technique in some kind of dessert.
