I did it!

I did make the Orangettes (Candied Orange Rinds) last night. They are not only very pretty candies, they are delish too. They have this unusual spicy/anise flavor even though you add nothing to the orange rind but sugar. They are a "grown up" candy for certain. Although they are very time consuming to make it is a very simple recipe. I began around 5:00 pm and completely finished them around 9:00. The peeling of the orange rind is the most time consuming part. I was able to complete many other chores while the rind was boiling away at different stages. I reccomend trying the recipe. I'll post pictures tonight hopefully.
Later... Here are the pictures I promised.
