Foodie Penpals April 2013
I have recently joined Foodie Penpals.
More information here http://thisisrocksalt.com/foodie-penpals/ this is for the UK & Europe there’s also a link to the US & Canada one too on this page.
A most fantastic idea, sending & receiving food parcels, how cool!
This was my first one received and I was so excited!
Well, lovely Caitlin who sourced and packaged everything for me totally hit the spot. Caitlin’s blog is here http://thepocahontasfiles.blogspot.co.uk/
I loved everything and had lots of new things to try out and share (yes I did try and share some)
The Simon Rimmer Carrot & Coriander Falafel mix was really easy to make and tasted good.
I’ve just been munching these dried banana chunks, heavenly!
The little pots of orange marmalade and rhubarb & strawberry jam were great and definitely not for sharing (all mine!) enjoyed on toast.
The Seasalt & Pepper and the Hot Sand both lovely and from Cornwall so local to my Foodie Penpal. The sea salt & pepper went so well with my poached eggs for lunch!
Cheesebites & sesame bar were perfect for afternoon snack cravings.
Included in the parcel was a lovely hand written note from Caitlin.
I can’t wait until next month……………….. ♥
Such a lovely concept Sam; Caitlin sounds like a very nice Foodie Penpal to have. I am sure she loved what you sent her also xx
Yes it’s a great idea isn’t it! You receive & send to different people each time ♥
