Recently while reading a recipe on one of my favorite blogs, The Sweeter Side of Mommyhood, I stumbled upon one of the coolest ideas I have ever heard of! It's called Foodie Penpals, and you can find all of the info about it here. In a nut shell, what it is, is an awesome way for foodies all over the country, and beyond, to share the foods they love with other foodies. You sign up, and then you receive an email with your pen pal assignment. It is then your responsibility to get in touch with this person, to get their mailing address and other info, like if they have any food allergies and what some things they like, or don't like, are. Then comes the fun part. You get a $15 spending limit to go buy a bunch of fun items for your Foodie Penpal to try!!! You also have to include one handwritten item in your package. It can be a recipe, or a card explaining the items you chose... whatever you want to add, as long as it's handwritten. After all of that, you stick it in the mail, and wait for your own goodies to arrive!
Now, a part of this whole process is that if you have a blog, you wait until a specified date to go on your blog and post about what you received from your pen pal. You DO NOT have to have a blog to participate though. So... For the sake of not revealing too much before I am technically allowed to, I will leave you all waiting with baited breath, until April 1st... Stay tuned, on that day I will post much more about all of this. I am so excited!!!
