November Foodie PenPals

This month I discovered foodie penpals. Head over to theleangreenbean.com to find out more about the program. Basically, everyone sends and receives a package to/from another foodie from around the country. Then on the last day of the month, everyone reveals who their pen pal was and what they received in a post!

Being a first timer, this month was really exciting! I couldn't wait to come home and have a box full of goodies waiting in the mail for me. Monica from Nomstoppable sent me my package...

I can't lie...the second I opened the box I dove into the chocolate with hazelnuts. Amazing. I couldn't stop myself and could eat these all day everyday. No joke.

as you can see I couldn't even wait for a picture to dig in!

Also included was some yummy granola (I actually use this kind myself so it was perfect!), and homemade oatmeal baggies, ready to make. I haven't made the oatmeal yet with all the business of holidays and cooking, but I love the idea. 

The coconut chips were a big hit with Matt since he loooooves anything coconut, so I guess it was his lucky day. 

Chai green tea is always amazing and the multigrain crisps are the perfect salty snack. I have also yet to try the pickled radishes, but Monica gave some great tips on how to use them, like with soup or rice, so that will be on the menu this week!

Thank you for all of the treats, Monica!

Foodie PenPals is such a cool way to get to know other bloggers and even readers can join in the fun! I sent my package to Jason over at MaurPowerFoodie, so check out his blog to read about that, too!
