Happy Bastille Day ~ A Fondant Macaron

I must confess that I wish I lived in Paris.

I am a closet "French-Anything" Junkie.

Just take a walk around my house and

gander at my pinterest boards.

I could NOT let French Independence day

go by without a nod to the culture that

makes me swoon and smile on a regular basis.

Not to mention provide the inspiration for

many sweet indulgences.

Say for instance the famous Macaron.

I want to make these soooooo bad, but I am CHICKEN.

I compromised with my baking anxiety

and made one out of fondant

with a sweet little mold I found on etsy.

I love etsy....and paypal....and teacups and sweets...

and big fluffy pink Paris poodles

and saying "Oh La La"

Ask my husband and daughter, I say "Oh La La" a lot.

~~ Oh La La ~~

Happy Bastille Day!
