Last week, we were spoiled. Our friend, Sherry, returned from Paris with indulgent gifts, and the crumb will most likely never be the same after her over-dose on Ladurée teddy bear chocolates....she is begging for us to take her to "the city where chocolate is so pretty". I have to admit, I love that my kid recognizes the beauty in food as well as the sharp taste buds to appreciate quality at its finest. She makes her mama proud!
I never thought sour apple would rank high on my Ladurée macaroon list of favorites, but its lime green goodness will hold steady in the top 5. And there is an addiction growing over the Jean-Paul Hévin mendiants, we love how the ginger and fig pair so perfectly with the smooth dark chocolate. So thank you Sherry for putting all our senses into over-drive ~ our eyes cannot stop looking at the perfection of these works of art, and our taste buds are dancing with glee. The only problem is that we are now suffering from a severe case of Paris wanderlust...
