drank French Macaron by TeaMaze
3004 tasting notes

How was your day? I played with kiddos (we mock-conducted part of Handel’s Messiah and played ring toss with loops of tinsel) and made my mom’s apple cake recipe for a work luncheon tomorrow. Only one small peeling injury. I intend to tie a ribbon around my sore thumb and milk it for sympathy.

While the cake baked, I let Rod Stewart sing sweet Christmas carols to me and enjoyed a second steep of one of my favorite TeaMaze goodies. The first steep is almondy, pastry perfection; second needs a little help, so I helped it with a fistful of tiny marshmallows.

Sounds like a near perfect day.

Come on down and meet my fifth and sixth grade Sunday grandchildren! They’re a mess, but a fun mess. Next week is Tea and Cocoa Sunday—has turned into a Sunday before Christmas tradition. Small supply of lapsang on hand to dare the boys with :)
