Last month Kassie from Southern Girl Gets Fit hosted a blogger girl swag swap. Basically you get paired up with another blogger, usually someone you don't know very well and you swap a box of gifts that is valued at around $30. It was a challenge and very fun. It was my first swap and the girl I was swapping with did a MUCH better job than I did. Sara over at the-b-brood was very creative and sent me a box of awesome goodies.
Starting from the left a pair of awesome wicking socks for running, they are supposed to prevent blisters, so excited to try these out tonight.
An AWESOME ornament that says: "eat sleep run". Sara could have only sent this and I would have been happy, I don't know why I love it so much, but it feels like some weeks that is all I do.
A Spartans ornament, since I don't have any beef with Michigan teams, it can go on my tree and I will think of Sara every December.
A Love sticker with Michigan instead of the "v". I want you to know Sara that I have never heard of "the mitten" before, but when I showed the sticker to my husband he was like "oh cool, the mitten". (I am seriously out of the loop)
An awesome cup, I love this for many reasons: I got Sara a cup as well, I LOVE cups, and I was just thinking how I needed a cup for work and home, as I am always forgetting it.

Last but certainly not least. Pat's Pantry mixes. They are basically mixes that you add to some creamy deliciousness to create dips. Snickerdoodle, Caramel Nutter Butter and Bac'n N' Garlic. I will definitely be serving these for Christmas and can't wait to try them.
There was of course two lovely notes from Sara detailing the gifts. I am so glad I did this and hope to do it again soon.
Sara - Thank you so much for your thoughtful swag box and if I am ever in "the mitten" we will have to have drinks! xoxo
If you want to read about my package to Sara visit her blog post at Blogger Swap Box that was not nearly as awesome as what she sent me.
Thats so funny, after i got your box i was all crap! She did a way better job than i did! Im glad you loved it, and loved this experience. Thanks so much! <3 Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI believe they call it the hand, but either way, it's Michigan! That is a great idea and I wish I had enough blogger followers to do it, too. Maybe I will see if some of my fellow BC survivor bloggers want to do it.
