Before we left for Hawaii,
Family Day for 2-81 AR in Alpha Company back at Ft. Knox called for a good ole bake
sale. The wives decided to host a bake sale to raise money for our FRG: Family Readiness Groups. Family day brought people from all over the country to spend time with their soldiers during their basic training. In fact, I directed a family to the bathroom and in conversation found out they drove all the way from the Florida Keys - Wow! So in preparation, I made several batches of cookies,
cupcakes, brownies, and a cake! My kitchen was a mess and my mixer was tuckered
out. Nevertheless, we set up that day and had great success. Solders who were
prohibited by their drill sergeants from sweets for months and months had loving
mothers who wanted nothing but to spoil their "babies." So we were able to satisfy the sweet tooth of many hardworking soldiers!
