Recipe & Advice on Mailing Food

On a flight from Las Vegas to Minneapolis I sat next to Barb from Pepin, WI. who is the mother of a soldier deployed to Afghanistan. (We military moms just seem to find each other!) She shared a great recipe for her son's favorite muffins and also gave me some suggestions on how to pack food for shipping. Thanks, Barb, for being willing to pass on your recipe and suggestions to readers of Boo Boo's "Mission Central!"

• To get decorated sugar cookies safely overseas, freeze and pack in bubble wrap before mailing.

• Muffins and other cake-like foods are less likely to get moldy if you freeze them and mail them 
  while still frozen.
