FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before. Fabulous FRiday FAVORITES
Tell us about your favorite New Years Tradition(s). KISSING The purpose of kissing a loved one at midnight is to bring good luck to the relationship for the next year.
EATING Pork is a lucky food for New Years day because pigs root forward when they eat.
Southerners believe eating black-eyed peas on New Years Day brings fortune, while others believe lentil soup is lucky.
Watch The Ball Drop? Do you go? Or watch it on television?
A TOAST? A toast is a ritual in which a drink is taken as an expression of honor or goodwill.
Or do you sleep in the New Year?
How do you ring in the New Year?
Remember, the Canteen is a family friendly place. We welcome the military, our allies, and their families. Continued prayers for the success and completion of your mission. Prayers for your safe return home.

We woke up to a little dusting of snow, but it’s melted now and the roads were just damp or completely dry. No worries...though there were 3 rollovers before dawn. People will NOT slow down! Geez!

Good evening, Canteen Ladies!
So, I’m meeting The Bride for lunch at Wendy’s the other day, and the music they’re playing is old stuff; 70’s and 80’s.
And a particular song comes up, and i ask who sang it. The Bride replied, “Rick James, I think?”
Found out it was The Gap Band, “You Dropped A Bomb on Me”...
Hi, Hunnie... (ducks)
