Sherree S.

Thanks for any encouragement, my friends.

I am on my phone and can't navigate daily challenge properly.

This is the Wanda Gag house that we toured in New Ulm yesterday.

Love to all!

We've met up with another Daily Challenge friend in Mason City. This is Kelly.

Thank you for the encouragement, Robert.

We will be dining in the dining room for breakfast.

Love to you all!

I'm gladdened with all the supportive encouragement messages that I received this morning from Melanie, Sara, Robert, Karen, & Debbie. You guys make me smile.

More Minnesota fall colors.

Gaynor is keeping me in line with making healthy choices. No doubt I will be eating a healthy lunch tomorrow (as well as today and so on...).

Gaynor and I are heading off on our road trip this morning. I apologize ahead of time for sporadic Daily Challenge transmissions.

Enjoy the beauty of the season!

Thank you so very much for the encouragement today, Robert, Keecha, Sara, Karen.

This is the Pavlova that Gaynor created over the past two days. There is no ounce of me that wishes I hadn't eaten it. It was light and wonderful. It is a traditional Australian dessert.

To be honest, I haven't regretted anything that I have eaten recently. Gaynor leads a much healthier lifestyle than I do. I am attempting to emulate Gaynorness. WWGD?

More busy days. Tomorrow we head off on our road trip.

It's quite stormy here, but we have plans to eat lunch on the shores of Lake r. I'm hoping for some clearing by then.

Peace, my friends!

Thank you, darling encouragers: Robert, Sara, Pat, JuaNita, Karen, Kimberly, & Melanie.. You have made my day.

My food-related goal for the day is to eat just one dessert. Gaynor is making a pavlova for dinner and I have forgone all other sweets today. I look forward to 6:30 tonight! My reward will be the feeling of pride as I resist the temptation to dive face first into a chocolate cake.

Today, we have gone to a Weight Watcher meeting, the Mall of American, the Guthrie Theatre, Mill Ruins Park, and a drive through some historic parts of Minneapolis. We are resting before we continue on with our day.

This photo was taken at Lake Nokomis yesterday.

Blessings!

Thank you to my wonderful encouragers, Melanie, JuaNita, & Sara.

Yesterday, Gaynor and I went to visit one of her friends that lives close by. I think we ate lunch for about 5 hours, so we never did eat dinner. Today, we are going for a walk around a lake and then downtown to see some buildings and the Twins game. This photo is Gaynor and Glenn.

I haven't had any unprocessed foods yet today. I'm sure to eat lots of fruit as the day goes on.

Make the most of this beautiful day!

Thanks so much for the encouragement, Melanie, Karen, Keecha, Sara, Lamoine, & Pat. I really appreciate it.

The Vikings won last night.

My friend from Daily Challenge, Gaynor, has arrived at my house! We have agreed to spend 5 minutes of our dinner-time not talking.

Fun fact: The first 20 minutes of all meals are silent at the Plum Village meditation practice centers founded by Vietnamese Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh. He writes: "When you chew, chew only the carrot, not your projects or your ideas."

Have a beautiful day!

Thank you to my buddies, Karen, Sara, Keecha, & Robert, for sending on nudges of encouragement today.

Here is a corn maze. Do you have them where you are? There are a lot of them in Minnesota.

As for the challenge, I ate breakfast with my pregnant daughter yesterday. We ate heartily. I probably would have eaten just as much without her, but I am blaming my recently expanding waistline on her.

I hope y'all find some adventure on this gorgeous Sunday!
