Sorry, I haven't been on here for a while, first I was baking for 4 day's for my friends wedding, then Thurs. evening, I had the misfortune to fall on my stairs and get a fracture on my left lower leg. I spent a day and a half in the hospital. I'm now home, yeah.... but I am in a wheel chair at the present, so I probably won't be doing much baking for a while. At least not until I can figure a way to get over the difference in the floor levels between the kitchen and the living room. But, I decided I wanted to put on a recipe anyway. I am posting the recipe for another cookie recipe that I made for the wedding. It is Oranged Drop Cookies, a family favorite.
