1.2 billion people on this earth live on $1.50 or less a day in US money. I am taking the challenge to do it this coming week from Monday April 4 ---- Friday April 8. I am taking the challenge with the Chief to raise awareness for a World Hunger. Live Below the Line is the charity/organization. A good cause. $ 1:50 a day for a week. Anybody want to take the challenge.
BD, is this an April Fools Day Joke? We all want day to day reports. You can't even make toast for every meal with that. It's going to be interesting to see how you do it. You know how I cook. Not touching that one with a witches broom!
Lol No April fools joke. It is for real. The 1.50 a day is for food only. I start Monday and finish Friday. Chief and I laid out/ put together our menu last night. Monday's meal for me is a banana for breakfast and around dinner time I will get between 1 cup and 1 1/2 Cup of Oatmeal. Water is free so that will be the only thing I drink all week, but can't pay for it so no bottled water.
Good Luck BD, an admirable thing to do. But knowing you the way I do, you always show compassion and caring for others.
Wow, that is a challenge. Good luck to you and Chief! I would be happy to donate but I believe I would flunk this challenge and I am always up for a challenge but really???? Can you go to a Soup Kitchen if you get weak?
I am going to get a pizza tonight and I start at midnight tonight. Monday: Banana (breakfast) and 1 1/2 Cup of Oatmeal for dinner Tuesday: Banana (breakfast) and Ramen Noodles for dinner. Wednesday: I grocery shop so it will be a Costco Hot Dog and Soda for $ 1.50 probably around 4:00 Thursday: 1 cup of Oatmeal for breakfast and maybe a few cups of popcorn for dinner Friday: Banana with a spoonful of peanut butter for both breakfast and dinner. ----- end at midnight Friday. Water in my tumbler will be my fluids for week. I will keep you posted.
That is not much to eat, bulldogs. It's hard imagine how horrible it would be to have to subsist like this everyday forever. It is rather disturbing to think how many people do. I am going to make an extra donation to the food bank per week from now on. That doesn't seem like much does it? Good luck, bulldogs. Enjoy your pizza! Maggie
