    Although I am traveling to Wyoming, I have completed all of my challenges today! Driving on the freeway has been a struggle on my gas mileage, but I found that going a bit slower than most of the other traffic, it saves a little on the gas mileage. I also had a veggie omelette for my breakfast and almonds for my snack on the road!

    It's a bit windy at my house today so I decided to take all of my clothes off the line before they blew away. There's a lot to do in my yard today, so I've spent the majority of my time outside raking. 

    I also had strawberries and a granola bar for my breakfast today! It was such a delicious breakfast without meat!

    I checke in yesterday, but sometimes my computer doesn't save the data so I checked again this morning! Anyway, yesterday I didn't have a meat with any of my meals again. My favorite new meal is quinoa and brown rice with cherry tomatoes! YUM!!

    So far today, I haven't flushed my toilet once. I'm trying to make it all day until I go to bed.

    I forgot to check-in again yesterday, however I did complete my challenges yesterday as well. I successfully talked my parents into recycling! I was super excited when they finally agreed to it! :) 

    Today was an excellent day, instead of 1 meatless meal, I actually had 3 meatless meals. I'm starting to branch out on the foods I am eating and I'm starting to feel much better throughout the whole day! It's truly amazing.

      Lillie,
      You are doing great!  You can go back one day in time.  I didn't get a chance to check in yesterday but I just hit the back button next to today's date and it took me to May 20th.  It's OK if you want to do that!

    I have officially got my car up to 23.2 miles per gallon from driving at a much slower pace! I'm loving the way I am saving fuel along with saving the environment! Although it's only 23 MPG, I'm proud that I've gotten it up from 19.4!

    Today I did my laundry in the morning and when I got home from school it was a bit breezy so I decided to hang my clothes on the close line in my back yard. Although it was breezy, my clothes still got dry enough to put them away! It was truly a beautiful day and I'm glad I got to enjoy most of it outside! 

    My sister and I also used an old pallet and converted it into a plant holder. We are going to plant cucumbers and tomatoes in it! I cannot wait to see the finished product!

    I forgot to check in yesterday after my hike! I guess I was exhausted and didn't feel like going online and completely spaced my challenge! Although I didn't check in, I completed all of my tasks. I'm sorry team for not checking in! :(

    Today, I actually ate two meatless meals! For breakfast, I had an apple and a smudge of peanut butter. For lunch, I had an avocado with salt, pepper and lime! I had a great day and I never felt tired or hungry!

    This video really opened my eyes - I didn't realize that we could have our own recycle garbage can here in my hometown (outside of Wenatchee). I think I'm going to show this video to my parents and try and discuss a way to get a recycle bin in our home!
