ICED ORANGE COOKIES
I usually make these bite-size orange cookies at Christmastime, when oranges in Florida are plentiful, but they're delicious any time of year. Every time I sniff their wonderful aroma, I remember my grandmother, who shared the recipe. -Lori DiPietro, New Port Richey, Florida

SPICED PRUNE COOKIES
These cookies come from the (now deceased) mother of a friend. My copy of the recipe is in her handwriting and is very much a treasure. Most people believe that the cookie contains dates, not prunes. I don't bother to correct most. They are so good; why spoil it for them? (hehe)

BANANA CAKE WITH ORANGE ICING
Another great banana cake but with a blast of citrus; gives it an added zing! It is lower in fat than some and I quite often make it without the icing so it is not too sweet either. I often add something extra as well...often a handful of dried cranberries really sets it off. I usually bake it in a tube pan but that is my personal preference. This recipe originated in "Lighthearted Everyday Cooking" by Anne Lindsay.
