Little Boxes

What to do with last year's calenders?

Usually I make them into envelopes or little gift bags

but this year I had one that was on the small side

so I made little boxes

(giving myself recycling points here)

What did I put into them? Date Delights

Some of you have asked me for this simple recipe: 

Melt 500 grams mashed dates (without  pits) with 50 grams of butter

Let cool for a bit and add 3 cups of goodies

I use broken cookies, nuts, chocolate chip, dried fruit, etc.

Roll into a sausage shape and chill again,

and, finally, roll in coconut and slice.

Best kept in the freezer and taken out 20 min. before nibbling
