Foodie Pen Pal Reveal – May 2012
I’ve been a delinquent. Actually, I’ve been a sick delinquent. This post was due to be posted yesterday, but I could barely raise my arms, let alone type. Here is is – better late than never.
Earlier this month a package came in the mail. Ravynn and were doing dishes – which is odd enough to make it memorable – and took a time out to unpack the joy nestled inside.
I’d let my pal know that I like natural/good for me foods and she did an incredible job. There was so much, it was difficult to photograph it all, but it includes.
-
A box of multigrain crackers
-
Two packets of super tasty instant oatmal
-
A bag of organic sour worms
-
A bag of organic jelly beans
-
Two boxes of seaweed snacks
-
And a bad of fruit chips
Also, included but not photographed with everything else was a carob peanut butter cup. But we did get a picture before Ravynn and I gobbled it up completely 🙂
Thank you, Christina!!

-On the 5th of every month, you will receive your penpal pairing via email. It will be your responsibility to contact your penpal and get their mailing address and any other information you might need like allergies or dietary restrictions.
-You will have until the 15th of the month to put your box of goodies in the mail. On the last day of the month, you will post about the goodies you received from your penpal!
-The boxes are to be filled with fun foodie things, local food items or even homemade treats! The spending limit is $15. The box must also include something written. This can be anything from a note explaining what’s in the box, to a fun recipe…use your imagination!
-You are responsible for figuring out the best way to ship your items depending on their size and how fragile they are. (Don’t forget about flat rate boxes!)
-Foodie Penpals is open to blog readers as well as bloggers. If you’re a reader and you get paired with a blogger, you are to write a short guest post for your penpal to post on their blog about what you received. If two readers are paired together, neither needs to worry about writing a post for that month.
-Foodie Penplas is open to US & Canadian residents. Please note, Canadian Residents will be paired with other Canadians only. We’ve determined things might get too slow and backed up if we’re trying to send foods through customs across the border from US to Canada and vice versa.
