I signed up for my very first month of being a Foodie Pen Pal through The Lean Green Bean.
My very first experience as a Foodie Pen Pal was wonderful. I was able to pack a box of treats and recipes to my box recipient, Julie while receiving my box from Alexa. Julie blogged about it today today for reveal day. How awesome to see her post too!
Juggling with Julia - her blog
I received an awesome box from Alexa in DC. She sent amazing treats! Here's the photo of the awesome Trader Joe treats!!!
The Cookie Butter is amazing - a cinnamon, nut spread that my daughter loves! The Apple treats and fruit snacks are perfect for taking to work in my bag for grab on the go snacking! As a family we enjoyed the DC-inspired Freeze Dried Ice Cream Sandwich - learning astronaut lessons in the process. And the Powerberries are my new favorite snack!!! Dark chocolate rules!

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 & European residents. Please note, Canadian Residents will be paired with other Canadians only. Same with Europeans. 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.
