1 c  Sugar
1/2 c  Water
Grated rind of 1 orange
1 tb Orange juice
2 c  Pecan halves
1 pn Salt

Dissolve sugar in water in saucepan. Boil to the softball stage and remove
from heat. Add juice, rind, pecans and salt. Return to heat and cook
slowly, stirring all the while, until the sugar crystalizes and clings to
the pecans. Turn out onto a buttered pan, and separate the pecan halves
using 2 forks. Any sugar that doesnt stick to the pecans is yummy pressed
into rolled and cut cookies before theyre baked.
