In honor of Veteran’s Day, we decided to bring you stories of women in the military and the challenges they face.  Dana tells us the story of the first female cadet at the Citadel, Shannon Faulkner.  Nydia tells us about the sad and senseless murder of Vanessa  Guillen. Cindy tells us about the best and worst MREs according to the people who serve our country.    

For dinner this week, Cindy cooked up a favorite MRE option of  Chili Mac. Hamburger Helper who?  For dessert, she made a military mess hall favorite, Applesauce Cake. The wine this week was Vina Zorzal Garnacha. A juicy wine with a hint of spice and well under $15.
