Foodie Pen Pal – January 2014
This month I was paired up with Megan. Megan writes a blog called St. Louis Dietician. Check out her blog for health tips. Ohio was part of the country impacted by the Polar Vortex at the beginning and end of the month. Since the jet stream was further south than usual, we got snow from […]

Foodie Pen Pal – November 2013
This month I was paired up with Anne from Pennsylvania. She and I had similar likes in foods, so that was a help when buying her goodies. When I got her box, I was delighted. There were a lot of yummy treats in the box. One of the items I am extremely excited about is […]

Foodie Pen Pal – October Edition
This is my first anniversary of participating in Foodie Pen Pals. Shania, who lived in New Jersey, sent me my first box. I remember worrying about her last October because she was in the path of Superstorm Sandy. Luckily she was fine. She sent me magnets which is funny because Katie, my partner this month, […]

Foodie Pen Pal – September Edition
This month we followed a different format. Instead of being paired up with two people (one who bought and sent to me and the other I bought for and then sent the box), we were paired with one other person. We bought and sent to each other. This month, I was paired with Jessica […]

When Foodie Pen Pals Meet
During the winter, we decided to go to our favorite beach – Folly Beach, South Carolina. Ideas about where we should go on the way there and the way home were thrown around. We knew we did not want to go to Gatlinburg because we had done that twice before, so it was time for […]

I sent my box to Lindsay at Say No To Bacon. She lives in Oklahoma, so it was my third time sending her there. Maybe it’s a sign that I need to visit that great state. Debbie at Accidentally Delish sent my box all of the ways from Arizona. Since I was on vacation, I […]

My travel bag
Today we are leaving for our big vacation. We are traveling to Charlottesville, Va, for the night. Then we are traveling to Charleston, SC, for the week. Then we are on to Atlanta, GA, for 2 days and Huntsville, AL, for a day before heading home. I’m notorious for packing way too much food when […]

White chocolate granola
I’ve mentioned how much I like a local Farmer’s Market called Second Street Market. One of the vendors has a delicious granola called Triple Treat Granola. It contains walnuts, cranberries, and melted white chocolate. I sent a container to my May and one to my June foodie pen pals. Both of them loved the granola:). […]

Foodie Pen Pal – June edition
It’s that time of the month, foodie pen pal reveal day. I’m usually on top by writing my post early and then scheduling it. This month I was not as good. Actually, I’m sitting down and writing it on our reveal day. Oh, well! It’s been a busy week, and I’ve rarely been home long […]

Foodie Pen Pals – May edition
This time I sent it to Theresa who lives in Oklahoma. As soon as I heard about the tornadoes, I emailed her to ensure she was safe. She lives far enough away that she is not in their path. Praise God! Check out her blog to see how I spoiled (her words) her. Hannah was […]
