Operation Baking GALS - Round 15



I am taking part in Round 15 of Operation Baking GALS. "Baking GALS (GALS stands for Give A Little Support) is a group of volunteer bakers from around the country who bake and ship homemade goodies to our heroic military men and women who are currently deployed in a war zone. Our goal is to show our support and send a little bit of home to remind them that we appreciate all that they do for our freedom." If you would like to read more about it, click here.

I am sending some of PE's elk jerky, Peanut Butter & Milk Chocolate Chip Studded Oatmeal Cookies, and red, white, & blue Mother Goose Popcorn. I am also sending a birthday card as his birthday is this month as well.
