Not Starving

This morning I blogged about how I wanted to make a tart yesterday and how we over indulged in food the last few days, now I'm telling you that we are going to starve for a few hours. We have registered to do the 40 Hour Famine in August. We will endeavour to do the full 40 hours without food. Zoe will do less hours as I don't think she will last the full amount, but on saying that how many poor kids the same age or younger are starving everyday without food. We really have no idea how lucky we really are and need to think hard when we say 'I'm starving', and think about those who do without food when we prepare our meal or raid the pantry or fridge for a snack whenever we feel slightly peckish or hungry. On the 40 Hour Famine we are allowed juice, water, tea and the occasional barley sugar if we need it, the starving children we are doing this for have no options or choices, they don't even have the Panadol which I will need, and they don't even get the end of famine feast like we'll be having.
