How to eat healthily on £1 a day
By Brian Milligan, Personal Finance Reporter, BBC News
Starting on Monday 29 April,
5,000 Britons will be challenging themselves to live on just £1 a day for five days, as part of a campaign by the Global Poverty Project.
"But is it possible not just to survive, but also to eat a balanced and healthy diet on that sort of budget?
Over five days, I set out to see if it was possible to include sufficient fruit, vegetables, protein and carbohydrates in my food to do that, spending no more than £1 a day - while trying not to lose sight of the fact that eating should be a pleasure, not just a necessity.
Coffee, alcohol, cakes and even salad are just too expensive. But there are plenty of surprising goodies that are very much on the menu."

Looks like another challenge coming up! You can have my alcohol and cakes but I'm not too good without the coffee!

HOW WILL YOU COPE? SHALL WE DO IT?
It helps if you have a look at the link. There is a lot of advice, and more when it starts and the menus look good! I think Jackie Monroe is getting involved and if anyone knows how to do it she does! More recipes from her website and book. Read her story "Hunger hurts"!

Great response to this project from Songs of Praise and Twitter. Isn't it amazing how in one hand we have too much waste and in the other hungry people! Somehow needs putting together like the Real Junk Food Project is doing.
Loved to get involved in my area.....BIG PROJECT, NEEDS MANY PEOPLE!
If you would like to see it happen in your area email me.
Thanks TRJF Project for sending me the How to do it!
You can find the TRJF clip on the Songs of Praise link below about 3 mins in.

I wonder if food waste would be an issue to activate!
Hugs are the best things!
Are you
superstitious?
Don’t walk
under ladders?
No putting umbrellas up inside the house?
Black cats
unlucky?
Well! I’ve
got a little friend to help you overcome this – be like Ginger!
Make someone's day and give them a hug!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY FROM AN UNKNOWN QUOTE!
“Money is an instrument that can buy anything but happiness and pay your fare to every place but heaven”
So: Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand!
(Philippians 4 v 6-7)
