Let me just say, "I love violets!"
In any form, I love violets. I always have. I don't remember a time when I didn't love the flowers, the sweets, gum - anything violet!
Sunday, being Mothering Sunday, my daughter, Polly, brought me macarons from Pix.
Pix is the creation of Cheryl Wakerhauser who trained at the pâtisserie of MOF Philippe Urraca in Southern France. Portland is lucky to have so may interesting and creative establishments. I love her macarons. I've have had good luck making them at various times, but it is so nice to have this treat, just for me!

This morning I am indulging in the last two macarons with my tea. The sun is shining (look quick, it won't last) and I'm taking a break from the usual household chores to enjoy my treat.
