Cranberry for Cosmetics
The little red cranberry is a native American fruit. The native indians of Cape Cod who used to dwell here used cranberries as medicine.
And they made cosmetics, it is said, for their girlfriends, long before the Pilgrim fathers began serving them (that is, the cranberries) with their Thanksgiving turkey.
