    @Melodieccurn
    I still need clarification as well as to what all is needed to get the five points for a day. Do we have to have all six colors represented in a particular day or just get one or more consumed on a day and we will be racking up the points. Thank you!

    Day 2 was the same as day 1 and day 3 will be as well. I pretty much have those veggies everyday in my lunch. Blueberries are the only fruit we have left in the house at the moment! Time to get groceries!
