2014-2015 Plum Paper Planner!

This is my new  Plum Paper Planner , and is most definitely one of my favorite possessions right now!  It came packaged like this...  I got  this  design, and added on an extra six months, making it an 18 month planner.  That was the really cool thing about this company, everything is customizable.  You can get your name and monogram on certain planner designs for free, you can add extra months like I did, add extra notes pages, budget pages, and more!  The standard planner with an extra six months was $48.75, which was pretty expensive... but it was a Christmas present, and will last me through the first year of college, so I could justify it!

Upon opening it, I saw it was very similar to the Nibblr box I received about two months ago, but I like it better!  The first thing on top was a paper explaining the box, with little friends and family coupons with my referral code on it ( 6FZ4FVQVP ) and on the back it had the nutrition facts for the snacks, which was really handy.  The first snack was Key Lime Pie, which consisted of: lime raisins, mini meringues, vanilla cookies, and green raisins Well... I wasn't really a fan of this one.  The green raisins and the mini meringues were ok, and my friend liked the cookies, but I am just not a fan of lime.  These were oat spelt and cocoa cookies with a cherry compote to dip them in! I loved these! The cooki...
