Ration Challenge Update: Saturday

RationChallenge1
Here’s the bulk of what I’ll be eating Sunday as I start the one week Ration Challenge. I won’t have time to cook in the morning, so I had to do some pre-cooking.

The flatbread isn’t bad, if I do say so myself. I used one cup of flour, a half cup from the house, and a half cup from my rations. So half is to test today, and the other two breads are for tomorrow.

The rice will mostly go in soup, since I’m allowed to use chicken bouillon as my “spice.” I also started soaking half of my lentils, which I’ll add to the soup as my protein for the day.

Thank you to those who have donated already. If you are able, please consider making a small (or large) donation. I’m about $72 away from getting the luxury of one (1) vegetable to enjoy during the week! So your generous early donations will prevent needless suffering. On the other hand, if you don’t like me and want me to suffer, then wait until next Sunday evening, and make a huge donation then!

Either way, your donation helps Syrian refugees who are going through the same exercise, through no fault of their own.

Donations go to Church World Service, which has an extremely good reputation for making sure donations efficiently go to where they are needed. You can make your donation at this link:
