I'm doing 26 things
Turns out the key to doing this is trying all those things you aren’t so sure about. Variety is key, both in how it’s prepared and the different kinds of fruit and veggies you buy. Takes some time, but eventually you will start to love it!

How I did it
It made me

How I did it: I tried to not shop, and focused on using the things that we already owned. Sometimes this meant using something in an new and exciting way. Usually we would realize that we had no need to buy new. We could use what we already owned, including our talents, to make things work. Read how I did it…
It made me
exstatic!
How I did it: Tried to fill a bag each day with things that were no longer being used. Had to get very tough and let go, but it was easier to do it knowing that I was donating all the things we didn't want and use. Knowing that they would go to people who would use them made it much easier. Read how I did it…
