Another month, another great foodie pen pal box. This month I sent my box to someone in New York. She got the Spicy Chocolate Chip Cookies (the coconut and salted kinds). This month, I got a box from Dawn over at Spatulas On Parade.
First off, I don’t know HOW she knew, but I puffy heart love the Lemon Bar flavor of the Larabar. So delicious!!!! I also love the Justin’s single serve almond and peanut butters. They are perfect for race day or travel in general. If you’ve ever gone to a race not in your town, these are PERFECT for a pre-race breakfast. The Sunbutter crackers/replacement meal looks super interesting. I’ll have to pack it on my next super long day. The mints are tea flavored and are sweet, but not overly sweet. Perfect. And lastly, the two spice packets. I can’t wait to use both! Thanks again to Dawn for her great box.
Here are the Foodie Pen Pal details:
-On the 5th of the 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 can choose 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 Penpals is open to US, Canadian residents & UK residents. Please note, Canadian Residents will be paired with other Canadians only.
