Today is Foodie Penpal Reveal Day!!
I received a parcel from the lovely Gale and I sent a parcel to Rachel. It was my first time doing the Foodie Penpal thing and I loved both choosing what to put in the package to send and receiving more yummy stuff!!
I think Gale had a sneak peak at my blog as the items she included in my package were spot on! It was Gale’s first time doing the Foodie Penpal too, and I think she did amazing!
She included a letter outlining the reasons why she chose all the yummy things she did, as well as a recipe for her homemade gorgeous toffee bar (a taster of which was taking pride of place in my package!).
Gale sent me some super cute stickers as well as the lovely food! These will go with my sticker collection π How did she know I have a collection?
I think the pancake mixes were the big hint she’d read my blog π I love pancakes!! I have used both packs already π With the maple syrup and nice crispy bacon for a weekend breakfast.
Gale is American (located in Surrey however), so she chose Betty Crocker! You can’t go wrong with that!
Maple is a huge treat for my house! Thank you so much Gale! Now I have to fight my parents and brother for it! π
She also packed a HUGE bar of galaxy! Wow, that is going to last me aaaagggees!!
Then came the toffee bars…
The were phenomenal! Notice the past tense used. They are gone! I shared them as much as I could as I would have finished the whole box by myself! They have an amazing ‘secret’ ingredient and I have yet to try out the recipe for myself, but when I do, the world will love me.
I was so excited to receive my first Foodie Penpal Parcel, thank you so much again Gale! I can’t wait for next month!
If you like the sound of Foodie Penpals you should check out the scheme. It is run by the very lovely Carol Ann over atΒ thisisrocksalt, read more about itΒ hereΒ (UK and Europe only).
Foodie Penpal is a wonderful idea! What a great way to connect with other foodie bloggers π
It is great! I can’t wait to continue with it. They should do Foodie penpals everywhere π¦ it would be great to connect even more bloggers from further afield (such as yourself).
This sounds like fun!
It is, I can’t wait for my next parcel!
I wanna do this – looks cool!
I put more info and links at the bottom of the post. There’s a US and Canada one too!
This looks like so much fun!
