October Foodie Pen Pal


Who says the internet is a waste of time?  ;-)  I recently found out about the Foodie Pen Pal program while cruising the internet.  It is a really great, fun way for foodie adults to have a pen pal and sample food from other areas.  Here is the link to learn more about  Foodie Pen Pals.

This was my first month participating.  I was very excited!  The person I received a package from is not the person I sent a package to.  My package came from John in Arkansas.  When I got my package I could hardly wait to open it, but of course when I went to take a picture the battery in the camera was dead, so I ran back downstairs to get our other camera.  I had to get a picture of the box opened but before I took everything out.


John sent lots of cool things!  I received some local Arkansas jam, mexican chocolate and cinnamon sticks for hot chocolate, several components of soup with a hand written recipe, and a veggie brush.  The local jam is delicious!    Over the weekend, I was able to make the pasta soup recipe, it was yummy.  Thank you John for your great foodie box!

If you would like to see what I sent my pen pal please head over to Daisy Sewing to check it out.
