Challenges, Trying New Food

Foodie Pen Pal Reveal: September Edition!

My oh my, was this a good month to be a foodie pen pal! First of all, the format changed (although I don’t know if it is only for this month or if it will keep going) as we were matched with a single person this month. It was so special to receive from and send to the same person! My wonderful match was Crystal from The Angelorian Tradition. Crystal is a busy entrepreneur from Nebraska…she even has her own Etsy shop filled with lovely treasures.

Here is the generous package I received from Crystal, a few weeks ago:

The cutest little note with my very own lucky penny (from her shop)!

The perfect ingredients for a yummy pasta dinner and a mix (dipstick) of spinach dip.

Coffee and snacks! Plus this gorgeous coffee mug!

So far, I have only tried the pretzel snack (delicious, by the way!) I received the package while my husband was out of town and I’ve been sick for the last two weeks so I wanted to wait and really enjoy both the pasta and the dip. I do have the dip planned as our dinner on Friday. Fridays are rarely real meals at our house. We usually like snacks and a movie so the spinach dip (one of my husband’s favorites) will be perfect! I can’t wait to try the pasta and the coffee too!

Thanks you so so much to Crystal for all the goodies!
