With that in mind, the challenge for Week 45, as you plan your Thanksgiving feast, buy a few extras to DONATE TO A FOOD PANTRY so that others may also enjoy a Thanksgiving meal.
Even if you don't celebrate Thanksgiving, I urge you to consider making a donation for those who are otherwise going hungry in your part of the world. Just google "food bank" along with your general region - appears they are all over the world!

I work at a local food pantry every week, and can attest to the need! We serve over 100 people each Tuesday at a mobile food pantry that focuses on delivering fresh produce, bread, dairy, and baked goods.
We have a local food bank....and all our supermarkets have donation points....obviously they have an ulterior motive for this....but it does make it easier to quickly donate.
A great challenge for this time of year. We'll be traveling & eating out this year, but I think I'll pick up a few things to drop off at our local community outreach next time I'm at the grocery store!
I second your suggestion to support your local food bank, it is heart-breaking how much hunger there is. We also make this one of our November donations.
A very worthwhile thing to do at any time of year, and especially now and thank-you for the reminder. I'm just catching up and am sorry to learn from Melissa that you have been poorly - hoping that all is going well, and thinking of you.
Oh Cheri I have learned from Alexa that you have been poorly. I do hope you are feeling better now?
The local food bank have a stall at my supermarket every couple of months. Paul & I feel very strongly that 'there but for the grace of God go I' I can't bear the thought that people in my own town are struggling with feeding their families. I am so happy to give.
