I got my payment from Half.com. A whopping .78 of profit. But it brought my challenge money up to $25.
More plans for that last bit of money -- I promised to donate $5 toward a birthday gift for a colleague. This is something I want to do.
At tomorrow night's "bar meeting" I'll just get a soft drink, as Laura suggested. Funny I didn't even think about that option!
I still have plenty of food on hand, but my grocery list is growing. I'm particularly challenged by having no eggs. I was going to make salmon patties, but because I had no eggs, the salmon went into the freezer for next month.
I was looking ahead to my trip to Minneapolis, and it looks like a lot of people recommend a stop in Osseo, Wisconsin, at a place called Norske Nook. Apparently the best pie in the world? I don't think I can pass that up, low-carb diet or no! Ceejay, English Castle, have you been there?
Also recommended was breakfast at the Stockholm Inn in Rockford, because of the Swedish pancakes. Can you tell I'm planning to CHEAT! This is my vacation, after all, as well as a work event. I'll try to cheat in moderation.
Up to $25!

I usually go for the Scando gift shop there. Although there are lots of them in MN, it's hard to find Swedish stuff in SE Wisconsin.
What are you doing in Minneapolis. I'm going to go the weekend of August 10 to visit some friends. Have fun!

I think I'll take your advice and just get a slice of pie!
