So, I’ll start from Monday evening, when Robyn got me some macarons, as you have probably seen or read from this post, and some chocolate bonbons from her Parisian vacation last week. Since I’ve ingested my macarons first, I wanted to try Pierre Herme‘s chocolates. Why not? I love his macarons, I’m expecting no less of standards after eating the maccies. So, here’s the chocolates…
This is a slideshow just for the sake of posting photos of stuff I bought in the city and a homemade cappuccino. I’m kind of proud of my own cappuccino just because of the fact I can make a decent cup of my own without spending $4. No, I don’t own an espresso machine.
