Oh how lovely it is to receive a parcel in the Post – this was my second foodie swap and this time my sender, Mari was from Ireland!
What a delightful package! Not only Irish Country Stew, but Irish ‘Tayto’ brand Chilli crisps that did not last long after this picture was taken!
I had not heard of Bewley’s before but they are a hotel chain and the Irish Breakfast tea was as rich and delightful – certainly the kick I needed to get going in the mornings. I think the Irish love their tea almost as much as the English do!
There was also some microwave popcorn – which reminded me of happy memories of the movie nights I did with my children when they were small.
My parcel was sent to the lovely Linda in Holland – I hope she enjoyed her parcel as much as I enjoyed mine.
The foodie swaps are run by the lovely Carol-Ann, you can join in the fun just pop over to her blog.

Great to see you enjoying your foodies swaps. I confess it’s not my thing – but that’s great, because there’s so much blogging entices me to do, I don’t need something new to fill my time 🙂
