la macarons a la parisienne
i found it! well, not the best … but a pretty damn good substitute for now. guess where they’re from? trader joe’s!!! i was in the frozen goodie section to get my ritual tj trip package of gummy tummies … when my eyes drifted below … and lo and behold there they were. a box of 12 mini chocolate and vanilla macarons for less than 5 bucks! thankfully i had a friend with me that day — she had to forcefully convince me that it was not okay to tear the package open in the store. i could hardly wait! too bad i had to wait even longer … because they take 30 minutes to defrost!!! that’s the only downfall of these tasty treats — if you have a craving you have to know about it 30 minutes in advance!!!
it’s okay though, because it was totally worth the wait! i have to admit that i actually watched the darn things defrost because i couldn’t concentrate on anything else. anyway, when i took that first bite … it literally melted in my mouth! soo tasty. soo nice. yea, these guys hit the spot.
