Judy's Cranberry Pomegranate Relish

I AM NOT THE COOK IN OUR HOUSE BUT I LOVE THIS SO MUCH I MADE IT TWICE IN TWO DAYS!t
[ ] 1 whole pomegranate 
[ ] 1/2 to 2 cups sugar (start with less, add more to taste) 
[ ] 2 whole oranges - chopped 
[ ] 2 cups chopped nuts 
[ ] 2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries 
[ ] Chop up the nuts into small chunks like in peanut butter. Put in a big bowl. 
[ ] Wash the whole cranberries, and shred them like cabbage in coleslaw. Don’t make cranberry mush. Add to nuts. 
[ ] Shred two oranges - you can use the peel to make orange zest if you like, but it is too much fuss for me, so I just peel the oranges and shred the inside. It will turn into mush, but that is ok. Add to nuts and berries.
[ ] Stir everything in the big bowl and add 1/2 cup sugar. It doesn’t matter if its white sugar or brown sugar. Stir and taste. 
[ ] Peel a whole pomegranate. The easy way to do it is slice it in quarters, drop the quarters in a big bowl of water, and peel out the little kernels under water so they don’t do flying all over your kitchen. Put all the little kernels into the mix.
[ ] Stir the mix and taste. Add more sugar if it is too tart. 
[ ] Tastes good right away, tastes even better if it sits for a while.
