Zest the orange first and set aside. In a bowl combine the dried cranberries and the Cranberry Spice Blend. Pour orange juice over both and stir to combine. Allow to sit about 5 minutes, until cranberries soften a little. In a mixing bowl stir together the cookie mix, butter and egg and the orange zest.   Add the rehydrated cranberry mixture.  Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Back for about 12 minutes, or until golden brown.  Allow to cool. In a microwave melt the white chocolate chips, stirring constantly, about every 10 seconds or so.  Drizzle melted white chocolate over cooled cookies. Store in an airtight container.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ENJOY!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay tuned for more great Cranberry recipes&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1738487144986221280-6894124016140716401?l=4spicygrapes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://4spicygrapes.blogspot.com/feeds/6894124016140716401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1738487144986221280&amp;postID=6894124016140716401' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1738487144986221280/posts/default/6894124016140716401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1738487144986221280/posts/default/6894124016140716401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://4spicygrapes.blogspot.com/2008/11/crazy-for-cranberries.html' title='Crazy for Cranberries'/><author><name>Kristie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12132308410280322294</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='29' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_GJsPrn3EWqA/SR0K6lqQw3I/AAAAAAAAAAM/ubp9UxMSeYg/S220/IMG_0091a123ab.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738487144986221280.post-6700327921604830474</id><published>2008-11-24T22:29:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2008-11-24T22:36:10.135-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mom made'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='thoughtfully simple'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gifts'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='holiday shopping'/><title type='text'>Mom Made Gifts</title><content type='html'>or even Mom owned businesses....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I "borrowed" this post from my friend Tori, editor and chief over at &lt;a href="http://www.thoughtfullysimple.com/"&gt;Thoughtfully Simple&lt;/a&gt;.

The truth is life still goes on even in this economic scare. The holidays are still here, people still have birthdays– we must still purchase things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This holiday season I have found a way we an all help each other out. Rather than shopping at big box stores and through catalogs, let’s help each other.

I'll tell you :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are two wonderful ladies named Carissa and Jyl, who many of you may know as the two women behind GNO on twitter (also GNO on twitter-moms and their own blog &lt;a href="http://mommygossip-cares.blogspot.com/"&gt;mommy gossip cares&lt;/a&gt;). This year they decided to hold a virtual food drive for the less fortunate, with a live auction last night. They have raised over a $1000.00 and aren't done yet, PLUS Kraft Foods is matching Feeding America donations, so this season $1 amounts to 16 meals. That means as little as a $5 donation will feed 80 people. How cool is that??!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the items I put up for auction weren't bid on, I decided to do something different. I don't think that ANYONE in our great nation should go hungry, so I am sending a $20.00 donation to Carissa and Jyl. You may still be asking yourself, "what does that have to do with me?" All you have to do is leave a comment, here on my blog, and you will be entered into the drawing to win&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270798724282867698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 194px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_GJsPrn3EWqA/SSWjg4t2X_I/AAAAAAAAAAw/4ufxO_arFOc/s200/Cares+Auction+008.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wildtree.com/Products/Details.aspx?ProductID=164"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1 Scampi Blend&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/a&gt;(makes great shrimp scampi, scampi rice, awesome on steamed veggies.....) &lt;strong&gt;and &lt;a href="http://www.wildtree.com/Products/Details.aspx?ProductID=335"&gt;1 Garlic and Herb Blend&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wildtree.com/Products/Details.aspx?ProductID=335"&gt; &lt;/a&gt;(perfect for roasted red garlic potatoes, garlic mashed potatoes, on grilled chicken.....).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instructions:&lt;br /&gt;1) check out my &lt;a href="http://kristiea.mywildtree.com/Products/Default.aspx"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wildtree site&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;/a&gt;and come back here and tell me what you think looks YUMMY!&lt;br /&gt;2) leave your email address so I can contact you!&lt;br /&gt;3) the 18th comment will win so check back and after someone else has commented you can comment again!.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1738487144986221280-7952233358218521337?l=4spicygrapes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://4spicygrapes.blogspot.com/feeds/7952233358218521337/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1738487144986221280&amp;postID=7952233358218521337' title='19 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1738487144986221280/posts/default/7952233358218521337'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1738487144986221280/posts/default/7952233358218521337'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://4spicygrapes.blogspot.com/2008/11/post-and-win.html' title='Post and Win!'/><author><name>Kristie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12132308410280322294</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='29' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_GJsPrn3EWqA/SR0K6lqQw3I/AAAAAAAAAAM/ubp9UxMSeYg/S220/IMG_0091a123ab.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_GJsPrn3EWqA/SSWjg4t2X_I/AAAAAAAAAAw/4ufxO_arFOc/s72-c/Cares+Auction+008.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>19</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738487144986221280.post-7064419961021002914</id><published>2008-11-16T00:19:00.009-07:00</published><updated>2008-11-16T08:19:49.764-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='GNO-Cares'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Thanksgiving'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Virtual Food Drive'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Auction'/><title type='text'>GNO Food Drive Auction Items :-)</title><content type='html'>Here is what you are bidding on:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Up for auction are these two all natural blends from Wildtree herbs.
