The Damage: $20
The Victim: Um, me. And I swear I’m only eating two a day until they’re gone. Let’s hope they keep in the freezer.
The Background: Happiness is a box of macarons on a Sunday afternoon from your local bakery. $1.50 each and worth every penny. (Although a bulk discount would be nice. As would a baker’s dozen. But beggars can’t be choosers.) This could be a truly unhealthy relationship.
The Verdict: Go. But leave some for me.

I have a serious macaron addiction as well. Not sure about keeping them in the freezer though – best to eat them fresh!

I didn’t realize how much I loved macarons until this year and these ones look INCREDIBLE. Swinging by there this weekend to try some!
