Besh Box Update (Feb. 2015): The Besh Box was discontinued in April of last year. Although I was disappointed, I have tried other subscription food boxes and will be posting about them in the near future.

Guess what? One of my favorite chefs, John Besh - see previous posts - has begun a monthly food lovers box. Described as the ultimate gift for a foodie, I had to buy it for myself. There are several plans, but I wanted the monthly plan that included a copy of his new book. Here is a link to the site for more information and to sign-up for a plan. http://beshbox.com/

It took about three weeks before the first box came and I could hardly wait. I felt like a child at Christmas again. What would be in it? I received notice that it had shipped and a few days later, there it was.
I rushed inside to open it up and this is what it looked like:
The card inside listed all of the contents. I almost missed the one of the most exciting things - the vanilla bean - because if was wrapped up. Didn't look for it until I saw the card. Although I was excited to get it, I have not done much with the items yet. Part of the problem is that I want to do something special - especially with the pecans and vanilla beans - and I can't decide. Right now I am leaning toward a vanilla bean cheesecake with pecan pralines. I'll keep you posted on what I do. #beshbox
Guess what? After a couple of months of getting boxes - each one less impressive than the last - I received an email from the Besh group saying they were discontinuing the box. It could be that they were not satisfied with the quality of the boxes and didn't want the Besh name associated with it. I did get a refund of the unused amount and still have the great items I received and a signed copy of his latest cookbook.
