Welcome!

This little blog started on our wedding website, which kept family and friends up to date on the planning and details. Of course this is where we will provide all of the recaps of the wedding and everything after. We look forward to keeping family and friends up to date on our lives here in Texas and all of the adventures we share as newlyweds!

Macarons!

As promised I figured I would post some of the many cookies I've baked in the past couple of weeks...I will have to say though that not one of these remains the office and Rene and I gobbled them up!

I am a big fan of macarons and these were perfect!! A basic butter cream and chocolate butter cream filled delight!

I would highly suggest trying the recipe listed on FoodNetwork's website...our first batch was wonderful and produced the above, however I tried again last weekend and Rene used a little bigger item to trace for the cookie and they didn't turn out nearly as good...so maybe I'll try again this weekend.
The trick is whipping the egg whites enough but not too much....quite tricky!

More cookies to come in the next few days!!
