    I put some food in my mail box - hopefully they are doing it in my area and my carrier doesn't think I am a nutter!!

    We have had this in our area too but our mailman always leaves our donation right where we put it. Party-pooper!

    I love it when this day rolls around! It gives me the opportunity to donate, because my nearest food bank is about 15 miles from here and I don't go in that direction very often, so I'm always glad to fill a few bags from my stockpile. Get to do it thru the elementary school once a year too. The kids are proud bringing in the donations and learn a good lesson in helping others too!
