Foodie PenPal reveal

Hi all, just wanted to write and let everyone know about my food gift from my foodie pen pal. My fpp was Rachel Tokarz. This was my first time as a fpp and I was soooo not disappointed. What fun. Rachel is from Virginia and sent me things from her local farmers market, what a treat.

Here are all of them in the box that they came in. Honey Banana P.B., gluten free cookies(choc. mint) little jar of honey, and a spice grinder filled with homemade dried spices. I love them all.

I tried to get a close-up of the spice grinder so you could see what is in there but the words didn't come out. Take my word for it there are LOTS of great spices in here including LAVENDER! I use it all the time.

This is the p.b. and not just plain, but with honey and banana. WOW! what a taste sensation for my mouth.(by the way it's gone already) YUM!

Here is that cute little jar of honey. I haven't opened it yet because it is too darn cute, but that won't stop me too much longer since I love honey in my tea and it's getting cooler out now. The postcard was from Florida where Rachel was just before sending the package.

Last BUT BY NOOOOO MEANS LEAST, these are the mint chocolate gluten free cookies. They were gone by the day after I got them. Need I say more.
Thanks again Rachel. I cannot wait for next time. Have a great day everyone and hope all are enjoying yummy deliciousness.

“The glare of human joy hides from our sight ten thousand blessings which we cannot see until it grows dark about us. And it would be a dire loss to live through all our days and never see these blessings. There are hundreds of Bible words which seem pale and without meaning in the time of earthly gladness, but which come out bright and shining like stars when the darkness comes on. You have no need for divine comfort when you had no sorrow; and a great part of the Bible was as yet an unopened book to you, for a large portion of it consists of comfort for those in trouble. But when the sorrow came, the words flashed out like stars at night, unseen by day. Thus we learn the meaning of the beatitude, “Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.” We lose some joys, but we find others that were hidden in the light of those we lost. Where earth’s tapers burned with only flickering light, heaven’s lamps now shine. Where the human face shone in its gentle grace, the face of Christ now looks upon us in its divine yearning. Where we leaned upon a human arm, often trembling, at last broken, we find now, instead, the everlasting arm. Thus when we abide in Christ the light of his love is revealed as human joys pale. The deeper the earthly darkness, the richer are the divine comforts which are given to us, enabling us to be of good cheer whatever the tribulation.” ― J.R. Miller

“Oh that God would give every mother a vision of the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is placed in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; could she look into its soul to see its possibilities; could she be made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no others hands the sacred and holy trust given to her.” ― J.R. Miller
