Hi Friends!

Time for another Foodie Penpals Reveal Day!

fpp

This month I traded boxes with Jeanine. She shares my love of crossfit and indulged my love of homemade cookies so we’re pretty much BFFs now! Here’s what she sent me:

octfpp

  • Potato chips – good thing I took a pic before I left because when I came home, hubby had eaten almost the entire bag!
  • Honey- saving this to mix into my peppermint tea next time I get sick
  • Kit’s Organic Bars – these were new to me! Tasted great!
  • Dark Chocolate – you can never have to much 🙂
  • Homemade cookies! So good. The way to my heart!

Thanks so much Jeanine!!

    […] My box contained: 1) Kettle Vegetable Chips I had tried Kettle chips before but these are a flavour I have never heard of in Golden Parsnip, Sweet potato and beetroot 2) Lindt Bars I love Lindt Chocolates but not seen the bars before which were cookies & cream and Strawberry cheesecake both delicious 3) Mini Marshmallows stir in hot chocolate it’s like a mini cup made out of pure chocolate and topped with marshmallow with a spoon inside. Add it to milk and microwave for a creamy warm hot chocolate. 4) Chai Latte A aromatic blend of tea, milk and spices which is added to water or frothy milk. It has a lovely warm spicy taste to it with cinnamon too. 5) Lara Mamas Gourmet Popping Corn I haven’t got around to making this yet but looks easy enough and I’m sure me and kids will enjoy it with a good family movie. 6) Ultimate Choc Chip Cookie Kit this was a very nice surprise. There was enough mix for 16 cookies and it came with full instructions. Very easy to make by just adding butter and a little syrup and vanilla. I am so glad I joined foodie pals. I have tried lots of new foods that id never had before plus it gives me something to look forward to every month. You can see what other foodie pal members got on the main reveal page here […]
