What can I say about Day 3! It was our baby girl's 1st birthday, so we had to have a cake. We took all that was left of the cake over to our neighbors. So, one piece for everyone and no more and we didn't even have any ice cream with it!
Day 4: I thought I would have some sad children for there are always doughnuts at church to eat before Sunday School. I made some muffins and we took those and the children didn't mind at all. One of the older ladies even ask our 5 year old if he wanted a piece gum (which my children can never say no to), but he told her that he couldn't have one. After she found out why from him, she came over to me and told me that she should try what we are doing for some of the problems that she has. It was also potluck day (1st Sunday of the month). Our eldest (7) did a pretty good job picking out her food and the others had some help. One of the ladies in our church knows about what we are trying to do and she was so sweet and brought a platter with all fresh fruits and veg. Over all we did pretty good at potluck, but I am sure there was something on all of our plates that should not have been there. Then we took off on the road for an over night trip. So supper was in the cooler.
Day 5: Hotel breakfast - they have a wide variety of food, but not to much for us. We did our best, with cold cereal and eggs and fruit, and yogurt. We tried! Lunch was a little tricky, but stopped at a grocery store to pick somethings up. Supper was back at home. Why the overnight trip. Eric ran in a marathon this morning and came in 20th place with a 3rd place win in his age group. We didn't stay around for they were having pizza and cookies! So 5 days down, 95 to go.
