I participated in Foodie Penpals again this month and had a ton of fun. I love any excuse to hit my local grocery stores to find products with someone else in mind. To see what I sent to Kyria, check it out here.
The wonderful woman who was selected to send me goodies was Carrie from Frugal Foodie Mama. She writes a blog about self-growth, food, and products that affect her everyday life. To choose items to send to me, she hit her West Virginia farmer’s market and the surrounding neighborhood and found a lot of unique things! Here’s what she sent:
~a fresh tea blend (mint, raspberry, wintergreen, sassafras, cleavers, and spices): I love tea, hot and iced, so I’m really excited to try this blend.
~Dandelion jam: This jam is so amazing and unique. I don’t usually buy jams because of their sugar content, but when a flavor is this different, bright, and summery-sweet, you just have to branch out and try new things!
~local pizza marinara sauce from Oliverio: I’m now really motivated to make some homemade pizza for my mister. It’s been a long time and I know he loves it.
~homemade Coconut Almond Granola: I was excited to try someone else’s homemade granola because I usually only eat my own. It was full of coconut and almonds and felt like a little treat. So delish!
~dried pears: I had always wanted dried pears but never knew where to find them! I’m really excited to add these to my dried fruit repertoire.
If you want to be a part of Foodie Penpals, it’s super simple, very fun, and all you have to do is follow this link and sign up! Have a great weekend!
