Mail Galore...Foodie Penpals!

April showers bring more May showers... wait that's not how it goes
April showers bring May FOODIE PEN PALS!!!... well really the first one is more accurate but this one is more fun :o)

If you read yesterday's post you already know that we are having some ahh-mazing weather her in the rainy sunshine state! Yep this ------>
has been my view for 5 days now. Gotta love summer :o)

Anywho it is time for another amazing FOODIE PEN PAL reveal. This month I received my package from Leila over at Spinach and Skittles. Leila is a teacher (just like me) and has a love for food which is why she started her blog. She is also an adorable momma to be. Check out her blog and check out the awesome box she sent me.

The Goodies...



 Leila asked if I enjoyed spicy food and sent me some hot sauce her Hubby loved. I have not used it yet because we have a couple bottles open (we are a spicy loving couple) but I can not wait to try. What I have tried and LOVED is the South African Smoke seasoning!!! I have added it chicken and even my Baked green been fries. It just adds a little extra UMPH that took my ordinary eats to a new level.
 Leila was supper sweet to pick me up some Almond Meal. She saw on my blog I had recently been to Trader Joes and asked if I had any requests. Since we do not have a TJ in Orlando I requested Almond Meal. I have been using it a lot to make these little guys...
Vegan Chia Muffins

To keep with the spicy theme my box included Wasabi trail mix. It is amazing. I mean you can not get a better combo than sweet, spicy and salty all in one bite. It is hard not to over do so I have had to measure out one serving and put the bag away so I do not just keep eating HAHA.

If you are interested in joining foodie pen pals check out the info at the end of the post! ITS FUN you should totally jump on in!

Today marks day #21 of the Fit-possible challenge. Which means you only have 9 days left. The great people at Supplement Locker are sending me some goodies to share with a random participant. So make sure you are letting me know either on twitter by using #fitpossible30day or on my FB page.
