mac!
today i went to canele and had six macarons.

i only paid for four.

i am happy.



aren't they cute? i would have used my own pictures if i had any to begin with. it's just that when faced with macarons, how can one even think of doing anything else but picking it up and eating it (in many small bites of course).

now that i've got myself started, i have to lament about how i had no time to visit the pierre herme shop (more like boutique) in paris when i was there last month. i had my french all prepared to engage in semi-respectable conversation with the macaron-dealing staff, my current affairs up-to-date as we would talk about tibet and nod in agreement, after which i would please them enough to be sent away with a free box of colorful pastries. but alas, it was not to be.

but anyway, i have moved on and set my sights on la maison du chocolat and jacques torres when i get to new york in two weeks. i shall not be denied this time...
