Craig,
I don’t know why I did not make them more while living in the rolling foothills!!! Maybe the same reason I did not rock climb more while living in Yosemite…. the changing of seasons and my attention focused elsewhere…on boys and toys 😉
Those look treats look delicious! How come we never made these when we lived near so many mandarin orchards????
