Macarons.

A new little goal of mine:  to try every possible macaron flavor.






It was a pleasant surprise this past weekend when I went to my favorite place to get macarons in Montreal, Point G, to find that there was a lineup out the door. It turns out that the store was celebrating Macaron Day and that it was my lucky day because macarons were 50% off! Of course, I could not resist this great opportunity and bought myself two boxes of an assortment of macaron flavors. No, I did not keep and eat all of the macarons, although there is no denying that I probably could have eaten the two boxes, but I am not sure how beneficial that would be for my summer workout regime. I definitely do not think I can ever get tired of these tasty little treats. Instead of a glass of milk and chocolate chip cookies, now it is a glass of milk and macarons. Yum! I can not stop this obsession over how delicious these pastries are. I ask myself why I was neglected of these macarons during my childhood years, but at least I now have an excuse to eat an excess number of these little buttons to make up for it!

I love french macaroons. They are so yummy, and I like that they are small enough so I don't feel guilty. :)

Macaroons are simply too luxurious, too good, too amazing to be given to children that is all. It's a treat for adults, as adulthood is hard enough, kids cannot have everything, so that's why you were denied those marvels when you were little. You deserve them NOW ;)
Gosh now I really have a craving for something sweet
