Bonjour!

Finally, my computer is cooperating :)

Glad I at least wet your appetite with “I Want Candy” until I could get my post in working order. I don’t want to send out an inferior product to my viewing public.

 

Last summer in Paris, I was able to share Laduree with my friends. It was my second time in the city and I couldn’t wait for my friends to experience Laduree’s famous macaroons.

BUT, it certainly isn’t just their macaroons I love or the charming striped Parisian awning….it’s the entire vibe of the shoppe.

Once you walk in Laduree and witness the glass display cabinets overflowing with the most beautiful array of colors and flavors of macaroons…you never forget it!

I may not even be able to remember what I wore yesterday….but I can paint you an exact replica of that French experience.

I am sighing now… just remembering that place.

Check out this true heart wrenching delight….it’s a macaroon wedding cake!! Hmm…I wonder who would want this for her daughter’s wedding? I need CPR just thinking about it.

It is so me…

I am a Laduree macaroon!

AND I am these colors, architecture, era and dessert buffet. This is a dessert buffet that I would get more pleasure from viewing than eating. Aren’t the most beautiful culinary presentations just that way?

AND I am these frilly feminine shoes! I would wear them in a heartbeat and never take them off. I’d sleep in them. Run to Krogers in them.

Maybe I can re-create them?? Keep posted for that one :) Avour!
