{Baking} COFFEE & VANILLA BEAN MACARONS … Mac Summers Night Dream
“We mac-a-holics are like cats, we will ALWAYS land on our feet, especially when we have each other 4 support!” Julia @ Always Room For Dessert on twitter My childhood whizzed by in careless abandon. All her time went in telling me to read more books, read something, and not while my time away. I offered her my deaf ear! I was far too busy climbing trees, jumping off 7 feet walls, {landing on my feet}, catching tadpoles, noisily eating mangoes and tamarind from the trees in our yard, painting for hours together. That was when I was younger. As I grew and the years continued to whiz by, she…

MACARONS with Matcha Macaron Buttercream Filling for Earth Day … Mac Attack #6
A gush of bird-song, a patter of dew, A cloud, and a rainbow’s warning, Suddenly sunshine and perfect blue An April day in the morning.

Love your macarons Delicious treat but really It’s a foot fetish. Haiku in comments @ Leave Room For Dessert It’s time for Mac Attack 5 at our other blog Mac Tweets, and for me the roller coaster ride was on once again. It’s time to find those evasive feet and this time the feet fairy abandoned me good and propah! I’ve had a maniacal time dealing with the lows of macaron-mania, and I have to say it’s not been easy… yet I battled on. I’ve experimented with oven temperatures, double baking sheets, nut meal, almond meal, different parchment paper, varied piping bags … Spring is the most inspirational season of…

Strawberry & Chocolate Mac-a-Verrines …From no feet to sweet dreams … & Macarons too!
“Find something you’re passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it.” Julia Child And my mac addiction continues. January has been a month of sneaking into the kitchen when all the world is asleep, grabbing that aging egg white lying questionably on the counter, and whipping it up. The saga goes on, macronage and failed feet again and again. What for?? For MacTweets of course, where Jamie and me are calling for Mac-a-Valentines for the month of January for MacAttack 4. I present my failures and success for this attack … my love for macarons!! Batch after batch, thankfully of single egg whites, seem to yield mixed results. I got…
