The sun is shining, the snow is melting. It's almost that time of year again!
Well,
sure, I guess it is almost spring too, but more importantly, it's
almost March, which here on Tried & Twisted means it's almost time
for the all month marathon of those delicious, colorful French Macarons!
French
macarons are pastries of sugar, almond flour, egg white, and a dash of
pure awesome. I might be biased though. I do have a diagnosed obsession
with these happy little treats.
Some
concerned friends and family members have suggested professional help,
but the doctors have just recommended immersion therapy, so bring on
more macarons!
Last
year, to celebrate the annual Jour du Macaron on March 20th, I
dedicated the entire month of March to macarons. As it turns out, a lot
of you out there are also lovers of these desserts too, and many of you
asked if you could join the fun.
So this year, I'll be hosting a party!
For this year's March of Macarons, let's share a parade of macarons on my blog!
All
are invited! If you've been making macarons for years, share your
favorite. If you bravely tried them for the first time, share the
experience with us. Even if you just went to a local patisserie and
found a cool new flavor, send it in!
In March, I'll host a linky party for bloggers to share their favorite, colorful, flavorful macarons.
If you'd like to write a guest post or if you'd like to share your
baking experience, but you don't have a blog to post to, then just email
me at triedandtwisted@gmail.com.I'll be sharing new tips and new recipes all through the month of March, so stop by often for more of the March of Macarons.
I'll also be pinning macarons on my Minor Macaron Obsession board, so feel free to follow along!
Be sweet, everyone!
