SPREADING HOLIDAY CHEER
TAKE SNACKS to a LOCAL VETERANS’S CLUB
In my area there are quite a few veteran’s organizations which have what is called canteen. Members meet for regular meetings where the organizations programs are discussed. In the canteen members meet to socialize. All of the organizations which I hold membership do charity works within our community. The canteen area is where you can meet and have a beverage or snack and talk with other members.
Why not drop off some snacks to a veteran’s club in your area. A bag or two of pretzels; chips; peanuts or even Christmas cookies would be welcomed.
Over the years I’ve donated pretzels 🥨; some spicy hot chips; salsa and chips; and a few large containers of a pub or snack mix. I handed out candy canes the same time. The veteran’s and guests were quite appreciative of the gesture. It sort of became an impromptu party.
Most who frequent the canteens are there for socializing. Many are alone and just enjoy the companionship of being with veterans or those in their shoes.
I have ordered special pretzels not found in Florida to take to two of the veteran’s organizations canteens. I know they will enjoy; as well as enjoy the candy cane I give them.
This is just one small way to say “thank you” to one who served our nation.
Until tomorrow....the veterans will be enjoying a snack of jalapeño flavored pretzels and cheddar cheese flavored pretzels🥨🥨 which I ordered specially for them from the factory. See we don’t get this brand in Florida.
Tomorrow.... leave quarters on a washing machine or dryer at local laundromat.
