Aunt Alice's Pineapple-Coconut Cookies

My great Aunt Alice used to make these and I hadn't had them for years.  My sister had made them and I had one while visiting her and they brought back memories from long ago.  I remember them being kept in the refrigerator and as a kid, I just didn't enjoy cold cookies.  But as an adult....de-lish!

Mix:
1 cup shortening
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs (well-beaten)
1 cup crushed pineapple (drained
2 tsp. vanilla

Mix and add to above:
4 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup coconut
1 cup nuts (optional)

Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
