Reveal Day

So it's my first month of participating in a project called Foodie Penpals.  I was lucky to be paired up with two newbies like myself!  I sent my package to Karen and I received mine from Heather.  Shopping was fun, but getting my box in the mail was so exciting!  Heather packed mine up with all kinds of goodies, including her sweet note.



So, as I was taking things out of the box, my husband came over to snoop.  He then took the M&M Snack Mix and took tissue paper off of the glass items.  He was as anxious as I was?!  We agreed if he was going to be eating my stuff, he would have to buy something for next month!  About two seconds after everything was out and I took the picture, I broke into the apple chips.  I had these once before and remembered how delicious they were.  Crunchy and sweet, yum.  I normally like my tortilla chips white or yellow...never blue.  But later in the week I had to try the salsa, as I love new brands and types of salsa.  Without any other choice I broke open the blue chips.  Surprise!  They taste very similar to my "normal" chips.  The salsa on the other hand.  Oh.  My.  Gosh.  Delicious.  And almost gone.  Yum.  I had a little bit of the snack mix...the other 98% of the bag disappeared.  Hm.  I'm going to let the apple butter make the move, but I'm excited to have it later, as the apple sauce is great.  I like smooth 'sauce, chunky 'sauce, but had never had almost full slices of apple...sauce.  It's different.  In a good way.

In a nutshell, I loved my box from Heather (THANKS!) and am looking forward to next month!

  5. Fun fact: when you order a Fuji Apple Chicken Salad at Panera, those are their apple chips! Inside the M&M mix was pretzels, M&Ms, peanuts, and little cookies.
