No Bake Honey Date Balls

My nearly 90 year old Mom made these! She made them while a pot of homemade soup simmered on the stove. Her secret to a long life... keep active, don't bitch and moan about your problems and when you wake up in the morning be grateful and say "it wasn't my turn today!"

She used this recipe from our good old Five Roses Cookbook.

Ingredients:

1  1/2 cups chopped dates
2 cups chopped nuts
3 tbsps liquid honey
1 tbsp lemon juice

Chop the dates and nuts finely or use a grinder.  Roll into balls. Roll in chopped nuts too if you like.

Keep refrigerated
Makes 2 1/2 dozen 1" balls

Then she gave some to me because apparently I don't make enough sweets myself ; )   Thanks Mom!
