More About My Amazing Sister
I don’t name names here so Sissy shall remain anonymous until further notice. She “retired” from being a Girl Scout Leader a few years back after successfully sheparding a number of girls to the highest Girl Scout honor – Silver Star. Sissy has tirelessly volunteered her time at a group home for girls as their on-site Girl Scout leader!
It was all of the Girl Scout Camping that taught her camp cooking – so now she is contributing that experience to us! Thank you sissy for this great idea – as soon as I try it, I will post the results.
