Katy Makes Macarons: Part 4

so far, so good. well, aside from the fact that i'm a moody grumbleoid today and had a little bit of a strop earlier x____x

here are a few pictures of the macarons in progress...

almond meal and sugar in the food processor

I'm making my shells rose flavored


and pink ^___^


i think i did a pretty good job NOT over mixing my batter, but i may have under mixed it... dunno.


and this is one of the best pipped shells so far. i made a few weird looking ones because i started off with too fine a pipping tip.


as of right now, the tray of macarons are settling on the counter. i'll put them in the oven in half an hour or so.

and the kitchen smells of roses! ♥
