French Cuisine Part Deux


I know it has been awhile since my last contribution, and reading Foodymom's post has made me feel like a slacker. So here it goes...

Our pretty much impromptu French dinner was a hit as everyone heard. My contribution to the evening was a couple well earned bottles of French wine; red and white, Poulet, chevre chaud, and a nice after dinner coffee or tea with Madeleines and Macaroons. Now that it is written out, that sounds like a lot of food. Good thing I axed the Lemon tart!

I love to bake andI think it has to be one of my passions in life. I enjoy taking everyday basic ingredients, measuring and mixing to create delectable edible pleasure. And my daughter is all about helping me when I told her I was making pink cookies. These strawberry chocolate french macaroons were my very first attempt and were a little too tall, but they tasted so amazing that I went ahead and altered the recipe to make Lemon chocolate ones. They were not pink, but they were even tastier.

  1. Slacker she is not, what foodybelle doesn't mention is that she's a full time mom, student, wife, sister, friend and baker extrordanaire!
