Every few months the awesome people at Operation Cookie Takeover ask for volunteers to bake and ship cookies to our deployed troops. I’m proud to say I have participated in every round! This time I was assigned a Marine stationed in Japan. I sent out an email to my department at work saying that if anyone wanted to send a card, note, or small treat along with my cookie shipment that I’d be glad to add it to my box.
Today I shipped three large flat rate boxes full of cookies, Easter candy, crackers, toiletries, cards, Tastykakes and other goodies. I work with some awesome people. Here is a shot of all my cookies and just some of the other donated items:
And here are some closeups of my cookies!
If you want to check out all the amazing cookies being shipped out this week head over to Operation Cookie Takeover’s Facebook page, or search the hashtags #OCT2015 and #operationcookietakeover on Instagram! If you know a deployed soldier be sure to follow their Facebook page and when the next mission rolls around you can sign up your soldier to be a cookie recipient!
