I will share with my foodie friends this precious memory. When I was stationed at Fort MacPherson, GA, the "parade field" was lined with pecan trees. The nuts were picked up and thrown away to clean up the field. I offered to gather the nuts to clean up the area. I picked through them, bagged and boxed them and mailed them to my Gramma. She would make her fabulous shortbread cookies with them and mail a box to me. Golly, was I popular at mail call. One time I brought a box to the "mess hall" for the cook (they weren't called chefs back then) Word got around and officers were coming to our "mess hall' clamoring for more. I gave the recipe to the cook and on my day off I taught him how to make them, he didn't have a rolling pin or cookie cutters, so we inprovised. It was a fun time.
