It was a wonderful package filled with all kinds of delicious goodies.
Christy sent her card and a little note detailing the contents of the box. She said that many of the items were her “go to" sweet snacks. Well, she has some mighty nice ones.
More to drink. Three flavors of cocoa: caramel, butterscotch and French Vanilla. All wonderful. I love a hot cup of good cocoa.
Christy, thank you so much again for sending such a great box.
My package for March went to Caitlin Croswell at Cait Plus Ate. She will be posting about what I sent her.
This is just like having Christmas every month. You get to play Santa and get something from Santa. If you are missing out on all the fun and want to join in, here is the info straight from Lindsay:
In case you’re a new reader, here’s a reminder of what the program is all about:
-On the 5th of every month, you will receive your penpal pairing via email. It will be your responsibility to contact your penpal and get their mailing address and any other information you might need like allergies or dietary restrictions.
-You will have until the 15th of the month to put your box of goodies in the mail. On the last day of the month, you will post about the goodies you received from your penpal!
-The boxes are to be filled with fun foodie things, local food items or even homemade treats! The spending limit is $15. The box must also include something written. This can be anything from a note explaining what’s in the box, to a fun recipe…use your imagination!
-You are responsible for figuring out the best way to ship your items depending on their size and how fragile they are. (Don’t forget about flat rate boxes!)
-Foodie Penpals is open to blog readers as well as bloggers. If you’re a reader and you get paired with a blogger, you are to write a short guest post for your penpal to post on their blog about what you received. If two readers are paired together, neither needs to worry about writing a post for that month.
-Foodie Penplas is open to US & Canadian residents. Please note, Canadian Residents will be paired with other Canadians only. We've determined things might get too slow and backed up if we're trying to send foods through customs across the border from US to Canada and vice versa. So, I'm going to keep two separate lists and match US w/ US and Canada w/ Canada!
