This swap is going to be a postcard featuring any type of food.

Swap-bot:The Super Boring Scenery Postcard Swap

Swap-bot swap: The Super Boring Scenery Postcard SwapI swap with Swap-bot!
The description:

Here's your chance to get rid of that postcard that's been sitting in your stash forever because it's just too dull to actually send out! (Or if you just want the challenge of shopping for the most boring postcard in the souvenir shop, that's okay too!)

It's so great! It even arrived dirty (she said she didn't send it that way, lol).  The caption says "Snow Capped Mt. Washington as seen from Highway; WHITE MOUNTAINS, N.H."
