“Clare Turner’s” Frozen Cranberry Salad

This recipe is from a dear friend of mine, Clare Turner.  She is a wonderful southern lady who knows how to cook.  She keeps this recipe made up and on hand in her freezer just in case she needs to take something to friends and family.  Now that’s a southern thing!
