One week to United Way Hunger Action Week.

Just one week to go and I'm already planning my "Hunger Challenge".  Thinking about all the things I want to eat and what food I have in the refrigerator that I need to eat now so it won't be wasted. To be fair and accurate I plan to start to completely from scratch, $35 bucks, spend it all on food, then live on that for 5 days.
In a odd sense of contrast it happens to be "Dine Around Seattle" month. You know the dining deals at favorite restaurants, lunch 3 courses for $15 or dinner 3 courses for  $30? As a self proclaimed homegrown foodie, this is hard to resist!  I doubt I'll have an opportunity to get very "gourmet" on $7 a day. What am I going to do about seasoning??

  1. Wow, do I admire your commitment to community, Joey Shyloski. And your compassion for anyone who struggles to get by. How beautiful to walk a mile (or a week) in someone else's shoes of challenge. I really look forward to your blog entries!

  2. Thanks Bobby Zenk! I appreciate your support, caring, and awareness. And I promise, I'll make you a kick ass dinner of short ribs next week. :)

  3. Joey is God's gift to humanity. I came to know her thru not too nice circumstances. She brushed away my tears and spread her love over me like a warm blanket. . In my grandmothers words, " thanks be it to God"! Rosemary brown Coupeville wa.
