I am interested as to your thoughts about hunger and poverty as you have taken on this challenge. What a treat to be offered the extra food from work. Food takes on a whole new role in my life when I have to be so thoughtful about what is on sale, portions and trying to creatively make things stretch. Good for you for raising your awareness and hope it prompts you to take action to end hunger if you are not already.
