Sampleicious: Nature Box Edition: November Box

My first Nature Box, the October Box, was quite delicious. I had high hopes for my November box. So far I'm not liking it as much, although one of the things I've tried is quite amazing.

So far I have tried the Roasted Garlic Pumpkin Seeds which were fantastic. They have a recipe included with them that I hope to try so I can't eat too many by themselves! I have also tried the carrot chips which I was not a fan of and the chipotle maple almonds which were a little too spicy for my taste buds. I'm very curious about the country ranch peas and I know the cinnamon spiced granola will be good.

*UPDATE* The crunchy ranch peas ended up being fantastic. They were a great snack to keep at my desk.  The cinnamon granola is good, nothing super special about it but it is tasty and would go great in yogurt. 

5 Days of Thanksgiving Summary

I believe my blog challenges really started last year with 5 Days of Thanksgiving. The year before I had done a 12 Days of Christmas thing but it was more sharing ideas of things I had already done, not actually making them as I went. I failed to find the time to do a Thanksgiving challenge this year but realized I had never done a summary of last year's. So here is the summary...

Day 1: Pumpkin Pie Shooters with Bourbon-Vanilla Whipped Cream

Day 2: Fall Hurricane Votive

Day 3: Pilgrim Hats and Turkeys

Day 4: Veggie Turkey and Cranberry Dip

Day 5: Thanksgiving Taco
