I know, the title doesn’t make any sense, but, well, what can I say. It’s hard to believe Kelly and I were just in Japan, because it already feels like it was ages ago! Both Kelly and I love pastries and sweets, but we didn’t have that much time to go bakery hopping. We did see plenty of macarons, but we didn’t even try any until our final day in Japan.
So after we had our macarons, we met up with our fun group for dinner. My friend Chico handed me a big bag of goodies, and she said something about eating the chocolate within 2 days. I didn’t get a chance to look at the chocolate until I was sitting and waiting to board my plane. The box was lovely.
And then I opened the box!
macaroon schmacaroon. You need more Madelines.
OH, those look so tastey! I’ve been looking for good macaroons here in Minneapolis but nothing yet…will have to wait until I get back home to Seattle. There’s an amazing little bakery at Pike Place Market that makes amazing mini macaroons.
I’ve only had that type of macaroon (usually I like the coconut type) in Vegas at the Paris hotel. They are so good there so I’m jealous of your huge box! I wonder if any place ships them?
oh-I so don’t believe you-you were never gonna share with kelly. should I come over now to make you share them with me? ha!
looks good! i’ve never tried macaroons before!
Pix has a wide assortment of macaroons.
