I know things have been quiet around these parts. I could make a bunch of excuses, but instead I’ll just say that I really do intend to start posting more. In fact, one thing I can promise is that there is a new feature that is going to FORCE me to post at least once a month!! Way to set the bar high, I know.
If you haven’t heard about it, Lindsay from The Lean Green Bean hosts this great program on her blog for Foodie Pen Pals. Each month you are assigned to a person who lives somewhere else in the country, and you send them a care package of dry goods that are local to your area, whether they are things you made or bought. For example, you could make some cookies, buy a jar of your favorite locally produced jam, and send some locally grown coffee beans, or something like that. It’s a fun program and I participated for the first time this month. Since my blog has a hefty focus on local produce, I thought this would fit nicely!
On August 31st I will reveal what I got in my first package. It was so exciting to get a package in the mail full of carefully selected goodies from a total stranger!
In the mean time, I also have some great new recipes to share so watch this space.

Hurray! You are back. Your once a month package revelation will be fun to look forward to (and any recipes you post). Welcome back!
Glad to have you back. I know you have been away for a good reason and Ethan is ADORABLE.Welcome!
I can’t wait to see what was in your package. This is a fun idea!
It’s so fun, you are going to love the new connections and bloggy friends you make! BLessings!
thanks! I’m very excited 🙂
