Receta No Bake Banana Cream Pudding
This was one of those desserts that I used to make
for all those barbecues
Husband Man and I used throw back in his early military career.
One word about those barbecues, they were….awesome!
We would invite everyone who hubby went to tech school with
and all of us would rotate who hosted it
every month.
There were 3 couples in our little clan (Husband Man and I included)
and one single Airmen.
When we all first met, we were childless and newlyweds.
By the time everyone PCS'd or finished their tour,
all of us had children and our single Airmen was married.
We were there for every baby shower
and every first birthday, with our very last get
together being on Christmas Eve, 2007.
I was at a birthday party this past weekend for one of
my daughter's classmates and the little girl had younger parents.
Like Husband Man and I did so many years ago,
they too had their own little clan.
I smiled through that party, remembering the good old days
and how, in this military life, complete strangers can
become like family to you.
This recipe has stayed in my favorites collection for years
and we hope it will make it to your collection too ;)
