Macarons
1st of several macaron experiments
Recipes: almond with vanilla bean macarons and lemon curd filling
Success! Though cookies were not baked long enough, and I made them too big. Lemon curd was also curdled late. Flavor is all there though, my taste testers still loved it.

labor day weekend thoughts

i had a longer than usual weekend due to an unexpected day off friday. spent thursday night playing board games at columbia tower, friday-sunday in vancouver eating and wandering around, monday at PAX.

things i have learned:
- my streak of NOT winning at drawings still stands
- people will stop and put on hazards in the middle of heavy traffic to talk on the phone
- merging 5 lanes into 1 on a holiday weekend is never a good idea
- sushi is super cheap in Canada
- ukelele players cannot be murderers. they are too happy
- wii u is now a possibility for my future because of pikmin 3
- canada's perogy platter lays flavor is so far their only experimental flavor i'd buy again

photos to come! for now, back to work...
