MY daughter is married to an American serviceman and lives in America. She recently sent me this recipe and I should like to share it with other readers.
Recipe for a military wife:
1 cups of patience
2 tablespoons elbow grease
1 pound courage
dash of adventure
Marinate frequently with salty tears and pour off excess fat.
Sprinkle ever-so-lightly with money, kneading dough well until pay-day. Season with international spices. Bake for 20 years or until done.
Serve with pride!
This applies to all military wives, regardless of which country they live in.
