What is Draw 50 Things? The answer is exactly what the words suggest; to Draw 50 Things challenge. It tells a story with 50 things and at least 1 character. Hashtag #draw50things.
My story is about a character, who wants to follow an internet post challenge; to eat 40 vegetables and fruits within a week. My character goes raw green grocery shopping before Monday, to prepare for the 7 day challenge.

This is my story of how a character eats 40 vegetables and fruit in one week, by including as many of them in her daily meals. This is an extraction of an old post from https://artmater.com/40-fruit-vegetable-challenge-per-week-diet/
My drawings are new.
One Week of this Challenge:
I have to buy very small quantities of vegetables to eat for variety. I may have to mix as many veggies as possible together to cook as a dish. Its tough to eat a variety when its picked as a single entity.
Mon. Oct. 26 2020 – Breakfast: 2 coffee, 1 Choc drink, 2 small tomatoes, 1/3 red pepper, 1 small potato.
Lunch: 1/2 guava, 1 banana, 2 tablespoons cooked black bean in gravy, broccoli.
Dinner: 2 cups milk, 1 small bun, 1 small jelly pudding, 2 small apples.
Tue. Oct. 27 2010 – Breakfast: 2 cups coffee, small bowl of grapes, attap seeds 2 tablespoons, 1 orange.
Lunch: 2 potato, 1 banana, 4 pieces 1/2 walnut.
Dinner: boiled veg of long bean, peas, carrot, corn, broccoli. 2 cups milk.
Wed. Oct. 28 2020 – Breakfast: passion fruit, plum, banana, broccoli.
Lunch: smallest bowl of pea, long bean, carrot, corn (same as before).
Dinner: 2 cups milk, 1 small pear, 1 small packet biscuits, dried cranberry, raisins, 1 small packet of mixed nuts (walnut, almond, cashew, pecan, pistachio, pumpkin seeds) .
Thur. Oct. 29 2020 – Breakfast: 2 coffees, 1 fruit plate of honey dew, pineapple, green apple, water melon, grape.
Lunch: kiwi fruit, plum.
Dinner: noodles, 2 cups milk.
Fri. Oct 30 2020 – Breakfast: 2 coffees, 1 hot choc, 4 tiny winter dates, a handful small cranberries the sourest I have ever tasted. 1 small potato.
Lunch: 1 small potato, 1/3 of a short cucumber, 1 small avocado, 1 small packet of mixed nuts as mentioned before.
Dinner: steamed chicken with rice. (I haven’t eaten chicken in months)
This is more like it. By Friday, I have eaten 17 different vegetables and 17 different fruits. I didn’t intend to make the numbers of greens and fruit to be the same. I was very challenged to buy the kind of veggies that I would eat, in small quantities. Actually I have no appetite for so many varieties but have compelled myself to buy them for doing this 40 vegetables and fruit challenge. I wish there were more packets of mixed fruit and mixed vegetables. This would make my eating challenge easier.
Sat. Oct 31 2020 – Breakfast: 2 coffees, 1 tea. Fried eggplant (brinjai), pumpkin, onion, garlic. Aloe vera, mango.
Lunch: boiled sweet potato, broccoli.
Dinner: 2 cups milk, jelly pudding.
I got 19 fruits and 23 vegetables by now. I’ve decided to return to my regular diet for next week, or even from this Sunday. I only need regular broccoli and a few regular fruits that I can swallow. I’m so tired of this challenge. It was good experience but way too many varieties.
Sun. Nov. 1 2020 – Breakfast: 2 cups coffee. 1 cup hot choc.
Lunch: Broccoli, apple.
Dinner: noodles, kiwi, grapes, 2 cups low fat milk.
Veg count: 21
Fruit count: 18
The total count is 39 fruit and vegetables.
For convenience, nuts are grouped in the vegetable count.

My 50 kawaii doodles and paintings are incomplete. My character is not here yet. I’ll update again when I finish painting them.
I know I lack a proper story. I’ll try again when I have a story where I can draw 49 objects and one character.
