All Done!

Nancy and I are done.  Only five days.  What is it like to live the SNAP Challenge for years?

Here's what I learned...
  • You can survive on $4.00 a day, but you won't eat well.  Quality, nutritious food is, for the most part, not in the budget.
  • I missed my luxuries: coffee, wine.  But I learned I can live without them.
  • PB&J's get really old really fast.
  • Likewise with wieners.
  • On the other hand, the chicken was great.
  • We had salad every day.  No fruit.  No fresh veggies.
  • Nancy tells me it would have been much worse except she knows how to use coupons, shop sales, and cook.
Do the SNAP Challenge.  You will learn some things.
