Better late than never I usually say! So with my trip to Vermont coming at the end of August, I never got the chance to write about my Foodie Pen Pal for this month. Therefore, I’m doing it now and asking you all to forgive my tardiness. Foodie Pen Pals was started by Lindsay@ The Lean Green Bean. She created this program for bloggers, blog readers, and food lovers to connect with other people around the country and share foodie items. Click here to learn more about how to join and sign up! Trust me, its super fun and you should try it!
- Trail mix
I eat trail mix/granola like its my job, so this was a great little addition to my Greek yogurt in the mornings! I’ve also had some as a snack when I leave home, because I never leave home without a snack or water. Super tasty! - Quinoa
How did she know I’m a quinoa addict?! Plus I love that its organic. I’m planning on using this soon when I make quinoa burgers again. Just thinking about it is making me hungry!
- Citrus Green Tea
I haven’t tried this yet, but can’t wait for the fall/winter so I can drink it. I’m a tea addict and drink it daily throughout the cooler months. It smells SO good.
- Orange and Lemon Pepper in a Grinder
This was one of the coolest most unique things I’ve seen! I never even heard of flavored peppercorns before, but I’ve already put this on several dishes and it gives food an awesome flavor. Plus, I love pepper (a lot) to begin with, so this was perfect for me. Definitely should try this if you see it near you!
- Odwalla bars
Cari sent me two Odwalla bars, which I couldn’t appreciate enough! I am obsessed with energy/granola bars and love trying new ones. The two she sent were really tasty, I’m in love!
Thanks so much Cari for sending such a great package of food goodies! I really appreciate it 
I encourage all of you to join the Foodie Pen Pals, its a fantastic program!
