After a month hiatus, I am back as a foodie pen pal. I was a little disappointed in myself because the box I put together for my own pen pal was a tad lack luster. I had roasted up some of Uncle Steve's Granola for a homemade treat, then right as I went to ship realized it contained wheat germ and my pen pal was gluten free. Out of the box it came. Rats! Luckily, I received a wonderful box from my own sender to perk me up. I will absolutely pay it forward with an extra special box in October.
The highlights of my September Box:
1) This recipe, from my penpal's daughter, a NV State Fair 2012 entry... How cute!
2) Gluten-free corn bread from Red Mills, can't WAIT to try it!
3) Lemon cookies and jasmine green tea, for curling up by the fire. Love that.
4) Saving the best for last, Lettuce Mesclun Seeds! I have been meaning to plant vegetables in our MTK garden forever, and this is JUST the sign. Can't wait to try my hand at gardening in the spring.
