Late – {Coconut, Almond and Currant Macarons}

February 15, 2012 by Whisk Kid

Sometimes I feel pretty grown-up. I have a job, I pay bills and I can even buy Blopens from the TV commercials if I want! But then there are times when I feel ridiculously childish. For example: maybe someone my age shouldn’t get excited and/or sing along when a certain new song by a certain…
