Orange No Bake Cookies

Its been awhile since I've made a post.  It has been a crazy past couple of years and my plate has been very full.  Thankfully things have started slowing down or at least coming together to a point I am able to take a few minutes to update things on social media.

2 years ago my grandma passed away and while going through her things my cousin and I came across a box of recipes, as well as a comic strip I will NEVER put on here (shame on you grandma).  I'm always on the look out for things that are different.  That is one of my personality traits, I like things that are different.  This recipe written down by my great grandmother stuck out to me.  It wasn't until this year that I was able to try and take the time to make them.   Apparently it was a big hit at the Christmas functions I have brought them to.  So as requested by those that have been privileged to try them, here is that recipe!! 

ORANGE NO BAKE COOKIES
 
12oz crushed vanilla wafers
6oz can of orange juice-thawed, do not dilute!
1 stick of butter-softened
1 lb. powdered sugar
 
Mix well and chill.  Roll in small balls and then in coconut.
Keep refrigerated.
 



*Please give credit were due, when passing this recipe on please link it back here.   This recipe was in my grandma's stash and was written by my great grandma.  She sited on it that it was from a Ruth Mitchell.

Tooth Fairy vs....The Toothless Pirates

Okay so I decided the Tooth Fairy was just way too pathetic.  We never did the whole tooth fairy thing when I was growing up so to me its not such a big deal.  I also don't believe in giving kids a bunch of money for something that every single person in the world goes through and no one has had to actually work to get a tooth out (okay so some may work harder at getting it out sooner then others, but really it would come out eventually either way).  Now my mom did have a good idea in the fact that if it is a healthy tooth with no cavities or brown spots it gets money and the last tooth will get a bunch of money as long as no baby teeth had cavities (none of the previous ones that fell out).  I feel okay in doing this because they at least had to work to keep the teeth in a healthy condition therefore they earned the money and it wasn't just given to them for not doing a thing. Back to the topic of the Tooth Fairy, again not really a "boy" thing to me.  I did ...
