                       Stephen Ceideburg
  1       lb           Frozen, unsweetened
                       -strawberries
  1       lb           Frozen, unsweetened
                       -blueberries
  1       lb           Frozen, unsweetened
                       -blackberries
  1       c            Granulated sugar, or less to
                       -taste, divided
  1 1/2   tb           Cornstarch
  2       lg           Naval oranges, peeled,
                       -halved and sectioned

 In a large bowl, combine strawberries, blueberries and blackberries
 and 1/2 cup sugar. Let stand at room temperature until the berries
 thaw, about 1 1/2 hours. Stir occasionally, taste, adding the
 remaining sugar if necessary.
 In a large colander, strain the berries with a bowl under it so you
 can save the juice.
 Place the cornstarch in a medium saucepan and stir in the juice. Turn
 on the heat to medium and cook, stirring, until the juice becomes
 thick and translucent, about 10 to 15 minutes. Let it cool.
 Place the berries in an attractive bowl. Pour the sauce over the
 fruit. Add the oranges and stir gently. Cover and chill until serving
 time.
