Anyway, sit tight kids. It's story time again.
During my dramatic, emotional, and macawrong-filled journey, I found an inspiring website that I absolutely adore. It's called Mactweets, and if you haven't been there yet, you need to check out all the great themes and pictures that are submitted on a monthly basis.
As many of you know, October is breast cancer awareness month. I, for one, am tired of the stupid statuses that people have been posting on Facebook (especially the recent one about where we like to put our purses), because does that REALLY raise an awareness for breast cancer? Probably not.
While many of you may argue that macarons and breast cancer awareness aren't really synonymous, I think they're a lot cuter and classier than those Facebook statuses. Run and tell that, homeboy.
So how does breast cancer awareness tie in with Mactweets? Well, they're hosting the month of the pinkarons in honor of October's theme! I hope it's not cheating, but I made my sister these delicious pink macarons at the beginning of October...I hope I still qualify!
Here are my pink macarons with Rose Cream Cheese filling. Simple, but delicious.
And here's hoping that someday, we'll have a cure!
Happy baking :)
Beautiful macs for a great and worthy cause! So happy you joined us at Mactweets and your Pinkarons are just perfect. And I agree with you that even all of us posting Pink Macarons on our blogs will bring more awareness to the need for research to combat Breast Cancer. Power Pink macs! Thanks so much again for joining us and I look forward to your macs every month!

ReplyDeleteSue, it took me about 13 batches to get it right, but these are so worth it! Best of luck to you, though I'm sure you won't need it! :)
