Hi Friends!
Time for another Foodie Penpals Reveal day!
After taking a few months off myself, I rejoined this month and am so glad I did. I was matched with Lauren at From Everyday to Gourmet, an awesome foodie blogger from Texas. She sent me an amazing package and she seriously put my packaging skills to shame. Everything was wrapped up so nicely. I loved it!
Here’s what I got:
She told me not to laugh at all the stamps on the box, but I had to chuckle 🙂 Apparently she found a bunch of stamps she bought several years ago and is trying to use them up.
Let’s take a closer look at the goodies:
1. Treats for the boys
2. Flavored nuts! So delicious.
3. Apple Bourbon Cinnamon Jam – doesn’t that name just leave you drooling?!
4. Homemade toffee cookies. OMG. So good. Inhaled them.
5. Beanitos – a fun change from regular chips
6. Salsa – always a hit in our house!
Thanks so much for the amazing package Lauren!

I am new to this. How do I “link up”? I participated in the FPP in June and this is the link about my own wonderful experience.

Got some great food chosen especially for me, and made a new friend in the process.
I am definitely signing up again. Lindsay, you even inspired me to start my own Pen-pal exchange for runners – it’s called Running Mates. Details in the blog http://runwright.net

Done! Thanks!
Linked and sorted. Thanks Lindsay. I hope my post spreads this delicious word to the readers at food to glow.
