#7 definition of "cranberry" from the Urban Dictionary online. That's not the "cranberry" I was thinking of when I picked this puppy up at an antique store in Santa Barbara last weekend. It's a reproduction, but a nice conversation piece from my home state.
Did you know that cranberries are a native species to Wisconsin and are the state's leading fruit crop both in terms of acreage and value? I didn't. Cranberries are produced on about 13,600 acres in 19 of Wisconsin's 72 counties (1996 statistic).
So next time you pop a cranberry in your mouth, think of me and Wisconsin. And the next time you cross paths with an idiot - just call him/her a "cranberry".
