Where did someone get the idea of cranberry gelatin in a can, slicing it, and serving it on meat?
Cranberry sauce is better on challah.
Fresh cranberries are better suited to putting in tzimmes.
And the holiday meal should be your favorite foods from the whole year, *plus* treats from the bounty of the fall harvest that you don't get at other times of the year. It's hard to remember in these days of January strawberries and April oranges, but there's a simple pleasure in eating foods as they come into season. Just pick the seasonal goodies you like best for your feast.
And you should read holzman's posts about how succulent his turkey came out.
