Thanksgiving Challenge

Good Morning! :) 

I am back to work today! I woke up after another lovely 8 hours of sleep! My body could so get used to this, but I do miss my early runs.

BREAKFAST

Pumpkin Oats with Cranberries

I forgot I had these dried cranberries!! I need to get the fresh ones.

MMMMM

The Great Thanksgiving Challenge

If you have been around long enough you might have remembered me doing this challenge last year. Kath came up with the idea and I jumped on the bandwagon! I know it’s already November 17th so this challenge won’t be as hard as it was last year. So what is this challenge.

I’ve decided to embark on a food challenge this month in honor of Thanksgiving , a holiday equally centered around food and giving thanks:

Our goal is to spend less than $50 (or less) on groceries  through the rest of November!!!

The Thanks Giving

To express thanks for the food we do eat as well as increase awareness of hunger in the world, we are planning to donate 25% of what we DO spend to a local charity.

The Rules

• Whatever you have in your fridge and pantry on Nov. 17  is all fair game. I did not go the market this week.

The Goals

There are 3 goals of The Thanksgiving Challenge:

1. Drastically cut back on our grocery bills and emphasize that some planning and shopping around can lead to significant savings.

2. Eat down our fridge and pantry.

3. Give thanks and raise awareness of the prevalence of hunger in this country and around the world.

• Who wants to join me???

• P.S. Another fun Holiday challenge to talk about at lunch 🙂
