Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't! Here is a recipe for making the classic chocolate coconut candy at home, anyway you like it! Get creative by adding different nuts or flavors (like orange or almond extract) or a sprinkle of pink salt!

3 cups shredded coconut (put aside 3 tablespoons for garnish)
1 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups powdered sugar
3 cups chocolate chips

Combine coconut, sweetened condensed milk and powdered sugar in large bowl, and mix until combined. Pour into greased 9×13 baking pan, and freeze until firm enough to cut - about an hour. Cut into small squares. Melt chocolate chips in oven proof bowl (I'll either microwave for a few minutes, stirring every 15 seconds until smooth, or by placing the bowl over a small pot of hot water). Dip the coconut bars in chocolate, place on wax paper to cool, and sprinkle with a dash of remaining coconut, or even chopped nuts. For that picture perfect touch, purchase mini muffin wrappers at the grocery story - they are the perfect size for candies.

We previously mentioned that Shaq had partnered with Zales to release his own line of jewelry.

Well now he's moved onto his next venture… vodka!

He's joining the likes of Sean "Diddy" Combs, who also has his own vodka: Ciroc.

Shaq plans to launch his vodka early next year. It'll be called "Luv Shaq." Ha!

Best part?

You know us. We'll take any reason we can get to try tasty new TY KU cocktails.

As it turns out, Thanksgiving is a LEGIT reason to do so — so we're sharing with you guys what we're thankful for: the Asian Baked Apple and the Coconut Cafe cocktails (above)!

YUM YUM!

Now if only we could get someone to make these for us so we don't have to take a time out from eating. LOLz!

Drink responsibly, everyone, and enough that Uncle John's glory-day football stories are bearable for the 100th time.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Let's turn the Olympics into a drinking game!

First, make yourself a bunch of TY KU Olympic Gold-Conut Cocktails.

Then you drink, when:

- Your nation wins a medal.

- Someone takes their shirt off.

- Every time you think the "London 2012" font looks lame.

- Every time you see someone in sunglasses or goggles.

- Every time Bob Costas interrupts what you were watching.

- Every time you get jealous of an athlete's body.

That ought to do it!

Just know your limits, drink responsibly, and HAVE FUN!!

LOLz!
