Macaroons

I love Macaroons! They are deceiving though ... They look tiny and I always think you need to eat lots to be full but as I discovered 2 (or 4 halves!) do the trick nicely.
Leamington Spa where I now live has hundreds (yes really HUNDREDS!) of cafes and tea rooms. Of course being the lovely thoughtful person that I am , I have made it one of my missions to visit as many of them as I can! When I was pregnant this was one of my favorite past times although I felt sick every day eating cake made me feel slightly better! Some places are slightly more challenging with a pushchair but there are still some good ones. So when lovely Sarah visited not only did I make chocolate cake but we also went to a newly oppened cafe called Comme Si Comme Ca and sat in the courtyard and ate these naughty little things ....

My favourite one was the salted caramel one mmmmm closely followed by the pistachio one. The other 2 were cherry and passion fruit. The cherry was the dissapointing one didn't really have any flavour to it. Overall a definite thumbs up. I will be back...
