Making Lemonade

Macarons that cracked during baking.

Two for Tea

A couple of these bad boys with some milky Assam tea. These crispy-yet-chewy, light-yet-rich, chocolatey cookies were made by my sis from this recipe.

Snack Attack

A couple of friends returned from a trip to Tokyo with treasures! Edamame crackers, wasabi biscuits, strawberry milk-chocolate cornflake balls, "tree ring" swiss roll-like cookies, yuzu prawn crackers, tiramisu cookies shaped like mushrooms....and the most bizarre item? Ramune flavored Kit Kat. The chocolate coating is light blue and it smells really strongly of bubble gum. It tastes mildly like 7-up. Not unpleasant, just odd.

Not Food: Chocolate Edition

While my stomach recuperates from a week of too much eating out, this Non-Food Roundup is all about chocolate. I'm sure a chocolate keyboard hampers productivity if anything, but it'll be a lovely counterpart to your chocolate printer! The printer's not made of chocolate, it only prints with chocolate. Write your sweet missives with delicious dark cocoa...the awesome folks at Instructables have a how-to on making your own.

Lastly, this was a year ago but oh sweet lord how I wished I could've seen it. By Jesus, if the thing wasn't behind glass I'm sure even a week's worth of visitors would've given new meaning to the Eucharist.
