| I don't know if these would work but I would sure like to have them if I was away from home. Homemade cookies, rice-krispie treats, buckeyes. I don't know how well white-covered pretzels would travel. I sent things and used the tins with the lids and used wax paper. If I think of anything else I will try to let you know.

| We have done cookies of all sorts, rice krispie treats made with other cereals besides just rice krispies and toll house cookie bars travel well too. Crispix cereal has a mix you can make that has you toss it all in powdered sugar and it is good too. receipe should still be on the box.

| My mom sends me sugared pecans. I'm pretty sure it is just melted butter, sugar and pecans. Toss the pecans in the butter and sugar then bake at about 350 for about 5-10 minutes. Last year she added a little cayenne too...sweet and spicy...just like her... (I love my mom!)

| Send him lots of love  food to share with his shipmates  Just don't do what my mom did to me in boy scouts. She sent me oatmeal cookies, except she forgot the oatmeal. All i got was baked rounds of the glue that hold the cookies together. Even the squirrels could not crack them. We tried them as skeet shooting clays and the shotgun birdshot couldn't either   )

| Not sure where you are mailing but this time of year I'd stay away from cookies with filling or what not as they may not hold up as nicely. If you are shipping South stay away from cookies with chocolate chunks or coating. Biscotti would be ideal. Bar cookies do well as do gingersnaps. Eggless cookies like Mexican Wedding cookies or lime meltaways. Shortbread is another.
