CLOSED ~ "Taste of Costa Rica" Giveaway


Because I appreciate you all, I decided to get some Costa Rican goodies when I was in Costa Rica a few weeks ago to giveaway on my blog. You know why? Because that's how I roll peeps.

I had a good time in Costa Rica and it was great to see my parents and my sister. I was not feeling great so I missed out eating all my favorite foods but had a few. My mom even made me tamales and I have a vlog up on my other blog about how to make Costa Rican tamales.

I even got a little shopping in and that's when I decided to buy a few things for one of my lucky readers. First of all, I always come back with bags and bags of coffee every time I go. I am biased and believe Costa Rican coffee is the best around. So included in the giveaway is some Costa Rican coffee.

I am also including some of the my favorite condiment, Salsa Lizano. It is like a Costa Rican Worcestershire sauce. Also in the goody bag is some chocolate covered cocoa beans, yummy. A cute frog keychain, a rustic coffee bag and a cool XL tee shirt.

Good Luck!
