When foodie pen pals rolls around I always ask for something local. I love learning about the different areas everyone is from.
I had a great pen pal this month, Katie at From ice cream to marathon!
She sent me Kentucky honey. I had to do a double take at the bottle at first I thought it was bourbon. Either way I am not a bourbon girl. But I got to use it when I made my honey whole wheat bread.
Next was an Artisanal pasta. I am planning on cooking it tomorrow with my tarragon marinara.
Next were these amazing dark chocolate almonds that hit this sweet and savory note that I have been craving a ton lately.
And lastly were these Cashew Nut Crunch which John and I devoured in one sitting. I want to try to recreate something like these great snacks soon. I know John would definitely appreciate it!
So thank you sooo much Katie for putting this together for me, I loved it!
