We finally got a bit of rain. Hooray!
The winner of the $1.602 billion Mega Millions jackpot has claimed his/her prize. The Florida resident's name was not released. The winner opted for the $783,300,000 cash option. The retailer will receive a $100,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
I won a basket of natural foods through one of the survey sites that I participate in. The package came yesterday. I was shocked. It contained full-size products including sausage, cheese, nuts, cookies and crackers. Really a nice gift.
I was supposed to go in for a dental cleaning yesterday; but my knee was hurting too much.
Breakfast - Protein bar
Lunch - No Meals on Wheels today - Broccoli/Cheese/Potato/Chicken soup
Dessert/Snack - Blueberry muffin and decaf coffee

That's a really nice gift you received.
Your lunch sounds delicious. So does your snack.
Food yesterday: Breakfast - Oatmeal with raspberries and banana. Lunch - Squash soup, and lentil shepherd's pie. Dinner - Raisin Bran and banana. Snack - Kind bar. I kept it well within the calorie budget.

My son has been asking for sausage gravy, I guess I will have to break down and make him some. He loves gravy, he thinks it's a beverage. My kids all love gravy.
What did I eat yesterday? I had to really think about it because my day was nuts. Um...oh, a big green salad with cooked chicken. That was dinner. Breakfast was fast, I had toast with peanut butter. I think that was it, because it was a crazy busy day.

I read about the jackpot winner this morning. Florida is one of the states that allows winners to remain anonymous.
How nice that you won a gift basket! I’m sure that made your day.

@LindaOHio I postponed one as we were away house-sitting but I didn't have any trouble getting a new appointment. They send out so many reminders I wonder if they are a bit short of customers.

@JudyEv Maybe so. I was surprised that they were scheduling 6 months out! And they now have 2 dentists.

That's a nice amount of money, lucky them. Sounds like a nice gift that you got with those items.
Chicken tenders sound good! I had tomato soup with ramen noodles for meal 1 and then a slice of pizza for dinner.
