Did you know that the first Friday of June is National Doughnut Day? National Doughnut Day was established in 1938 during the Great Depression. It was initiated by the Chicago Salvation Army as a fundraiser for the needy and in honour of the Salvation Army "Lassies" of World War 1. "Lassies" were women who home-made doughnuts (among other foods) and sent them to Europe's front line soldiers to boost the soldiers' morale.

The "Lassies" remind me of Gail Halvorsen and Operation Little Vittles. I think it's sweet.
