My mother-in-law (or "mother-in-love" as coined by my friend Sally who was also blessed with a loving M-I-L) is the area manager for a wonderful, 100% volunteer non-profit organization called Operation Interdependence. O.I. is a nationwide 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides a means for community members to support troops serving on the frontlines, military families and veterans.

This cookbook is being used as a fundraiser to support the shipping costs for the Civilian Rations and hand written letters shipped each month. Houston alone ships on average 150 boxes reminding 7,500 service men and women per month that they are remembered and appreciated by everyone back home.
This cookbook is filled with wonderful recipes from Sally's (mentioned above) top secret meat loaf recipe, a cheesy potato casserole that is good enough to eat cold and for breakfast (not owning to rather or not I have done this or not :) and a chocolate torte that is even over the top chocolate for me!
Each cookbook is $17.00 and well worth it! All of the profits will go directly to the much needed shipping fund for the O.I. Houston chapter. Please contact me if you would like one, and I'll make the arrangements to get one to you.
Also, if you are not interested in a cookbook but would still like to donate, please visit this O.I. page to find out more about donating or volunteering with a chapter near you:
