sweet tooth

Macaron Day...had always wanted to learn how to make them, but after reading the directions thought it was too much work!  Vanessa had made them before so she graciously offered to help us make them
 I mean we had Tip's fancy mixer and macaron wine, what could go wrong :)
started out right...white and fluffy...
but they ended up a little flat :)
had the yummy taste of a macaron, especially the almond chewy stuff
 but just looked more like a florentine :)  good try for us though...

 and always fun to have a reason to get together and hang out

made some other treats for us...saw this on pinterest, brownie mix with a marshmallow...pretty good, the marshmallow made it mooshy, chewy
this boy loved helping!

 
 sweet find this month was chocolate covered macarons at the Bouchon Bakery!  They truly are a treasure :)
