Last month one of my blogging friends (Georgie…follow her!) organized a food swap with a few other bloggers. The object was to send your secret pen pal food products you love that you thought she would love too. We kept the limit to around $15 and sent off the packages earlier this month. I’ve said this before but I LOVE sending and receiving snail mail. Packages and money are a double bonus. Seriously, opening my mail box to see a package made my day.
In my package:
-2 Lara Bars (apple pie & cherry pie)
-Trader Joe’s Legendary Trail Mix
–Dry Roasted Edamame
I admittedly haven’t tried Lara Bars before because I tend to lean toward KIND bars (#honesty), but these were awesome for a change! The edamame is a great snack by itself or mixed in an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink salad. Same with the trail mix.
And my secret food pen pal? Liv from Healthy-Liv. She loves running, cooking and just finished her freshman year at UNC. Check out her blog :)
This food swap was a great way for me to try products that I otherwise may not buy and/or know about. Take a look at what I sent Liv and what the other blogger’s sent their secret pals.
Happy Friday!
Yayy! What a yummy foodie package- I love Lara Bars. They have awesome flavors. I’ve never tried dry roasted edamame but have always wanted to. Enjoy! :)

Such a fun package swap! I love that Trader Joe’s trail mix! I think my favorite snack bar would have to be Larabars but I also love Luna Bars and Kind bars… I have way too many of all of those in my kitchen haha!

Trader Joe’s trail mix is always a good idea. Whenever I travel I always buy a bag because you never know when hunger will strike! I’m a big fan of larabars especially the ones with chocolate chips! So glad to have been part of the swap with you! <3

This is so fun! I don’t think I’ve received a package of any kind in MONTHS! Maybe my last race photos? Does that count? Haha. I love this idea. I think it’s so cute and fun. My favorite healthy snacks are dried banana chips and quest protein bars… Love them.
