Today is my Wife's Brithday.
i guess i'm excused from buying her a gift as my food bank Budget will not allow that.
On the other hand i will never get out of the doghouse if I don't.
i don't think a bag of crackers with a bow on them will cut it. (help)
My Brain is beginning to feel like sludge, many of you have suspected that already.
i think it is lack of fresh veggies, eggs, milk and proteen plus all the extra preservatives and salts i'm not used to eating.
I was tempeted to make a dandelion salad from the dandelions in the lawn, but the leaves were to bitter. I also have lingering nightmares over my mom's salads she tried to serve us as kids.
the math is adding up; fresh veggies + fruits = more productive, positive people including me.
Congrats Pastor Rob on undertaking this challenge! When people such as myself have to use the Food Bank on a fairly regular basis find ourselves with little nutrients and lots of trans fat. preservatives, salt and a variety of ingredients that I don't even know what the are. However, I am so very thankful for the availabilty of the Food Bank and greatful for whatever food I receive. Makes it hard to lose weight though!

I don't know if the food bank has a program for fresh fruit & veggies but I think it would be a good idea if people donated grocery store gift cards so the people using the food bank could go to the supermarket to buy fresh produce.
ReplyDeleteFunny to hear you mention the hillbillyhousewife site. I know the lady who writes that. I'll have to ask her where she finds all of the hints she has.
