les macarons - attempt no. 2


Macarons, attempt deux!

Just short of perfection,
and just for the party via

Happy results
after the following
adjustments to attempt #1:



Adjustment no. 1:

Relaxed.
They're cookies.
Fading velvety pink roses
on table inspired the color.



Adjustment no. 2:

Seek assistance from offspring.
(They were not forced into
 formalwear; they insisted.)



Adjustment no. 3:

Healthier buttercream.*
I love the oxymoron
that is 'healthy buttercream'
don't you?

Tackling the adjusted recipe
is less likely to trigger hives/panic attacks

*Healthier= 1/3 the fat and still tastes fabulous.

Bon chance, mes amis!

I hope you'll follow if you don't already!
