Cranberry Sauce?

I think two years ago was the first year that I became aware of the fact that people eat cranberry sauce for any reason on any occasion. Honestly, I have not ever consciously eaten it. My family has a very specific meal that we eat pretty much every holiday. Turkey with gravy, mashed potatoes and corn, stuffing, angel biscuits and green bean casserole is exactly what we eat. It has become a sort of Pavlovian experience that accompanies any holiday with my entire family. Every time I become aware of a family gathering, these food items are the first things that enter my mind. Whenever I discuss Thanksgiving with anyone, I can not help but think of these foods, and most of the time long for them. Never in all my life have any of them become stale or boring and I have had them on either Thanksgiving Day or Christmas day every single year. It has gotten so extreme that when I was invited to another families' meal last year, I was almost disappointed with the food, even though it was delicious, it was not the same meal.
