Macaroons

  I'm a bit of a Francophile. I'm semi-obsessed with anything French. So the next two posts are going to be dedicated to French things: pastries, and 'it' girls. 

  French pastries have to be the most beautiful food in existence. As difficult as I'm sure it will be, I'm going to endeavor to bake some of my own when I return from my tour this summer (I'm leaving TOMORROW!).

  Anyways, here are some fanciful photos of macaroons and other gorgeous french baked goods. (My apologies for the lack of photo credits... I'm not very good at keeping track.)

  I'm such an amateur...I wish I could get some real experience in baking/cake decorating.
