Yummy!

I went to a nearly new baby sale today. There wasn't a whole lot of girls clothes in my little ones size but I did pick up a few bargains. I was glad to pick up a larger sleeping bag for £3, it's very pastel pink which isn't my thing at all but it will keep little one cosy which is what really counts. Anyhoo, what I'm really posting to say is that whilst I was there I popped into the back room where they were selling homemade cakes I had the most amazing parma violet macaroon, delicious! I love macaroons anyway ever since a lovely french friend of mine brought some as a gift. I really want to try making some although it seems a bit daunting, Big messy cakes is usually all I can muster, but I think they would be quite satisfying to make.

They looked a bit like this......but not quite as perfect and dainty. Oh and the filling was violet cream, not chocolate ganache.

Think I will need to hunt down a recipe quick sticks!
