This was my first month participating in foodie penpal and let me tell you, it was A LOT of fun. I got all this niffty fun stuff!! :) She sent me a magnet which I think is cool, something to decorate my fridge with. A menu to her fav restraunt where she is from. That was cool because everything state/town has something you are not going to find everywhere else. She worked in a bakery and she sent me a vegan cookie from there. I havn't eaten it yet because every time I go to eat it both of my kids are fighting me for it, haha. I got some wheat flour from her state which is awesome and with that she sent a recipe to for a ginger cookie. SO ready to make those. I think me and the girls will greatly enjoy it. Last but NOT least she sent me some jam. Not just any jam but its a bunch of different berries WITH jalopenos!! YUMMM! It tastes soooo good! I am excited to eat it with some creamcheese and crackers! :)
To explain a little bit this program is done monthly. Who you send to doesn't send to you. You DO NOT have to spend TONS of money. You want to have it mailed out by the 15th of every month that way it gets to them in time. You email your person within 72 hours to touch base with them and get their address and to see if they have any dietary specialties. You do NOT want to send someone that does NOT eat meat something with anything meat related. You want to make you that your person enjoys what you are sending them! I am excited for next month and looking forward to doing this every month. My first month I feel I could have been a better sender but it was my first month and I am learning how to make this fun for me and my person!Stay posted for next month!! :)
