  1. These look delicious! Thanks for sharing that CQ. I'll have to try these now that the children and I have picked up a lot of pecans this year. We found a pecan tree.

  2. Aha! An egg!! I've tried making my own glazed nuts many times but they always ended up in a big clump of sugar. I never thought to add an egg!

    Found you on the Barn Hop - thank you for sharing your dear MIL's recipe! Can't wait to try it.

  4. You put me to shame with all your industrious activities.

    I can smell those pecans. I may have the same recipe. I call it Bonnie's Pecans because she gave the recipe along with a wonderful bowl full of these for Christmas one year.
