?Insider tip, we got the spoons but bring your own muffin tin so you have a better side by side comparison of the entries.  We will even rinse them off for you after you're done so your car doesn't smell like Chili con carne when you leave later.

And as an added bonus First Sergeant has designated the uniform of the day as green silkie Friday so all Marines have to wear their green silkies to be admitted, tips accepted?
