40 is too daunting. I like the idea though.
I'm in! We're having 20 people for Thanksgiving so have a ton of stuff we're finally getting done after years of procrastinating.
I tried 40 bags in 40 days last spring but that was way too much for me to actually deal with.
Signing up for accountability, but will make my list when j get home from work. I need to do this!
