Mousse-a-cotta with Macs in the Air!
A deliicous experiment later, mousse-a-cotta or panna-mousse is what found its way back into these goblets. It found its way into the dwarfs tummies at express speed too! They loved the second fast track attempt, one that I added a dash of espresso to as well. Served them with sesame macarons!

Strawberries & Cream Mac-O-range Cake … Macinspirations
A cake with flavours I love - strawberries, cream and orange. I added macarons around and on top for effect as I was elated to have found enough feet to go around a cake! Gosh, it isn't often that I find so much mac-success, so mac-inspiration was in order.

{Baking} NO FEET, PRAY, LOVE …Oooops I mean EAT, PRAY, LOVE Chocolate Macarons
“Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do!” John Wooden What’s not to love about the name of this much awaited film that is being released today on Friday the 13th – Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia. The film is a 2006 memoir by American author Elizabeth Gilbert. The memoir chronicles the author’s trip around the world after her divorce, and what she discovered during her travels.
