Macaron review!

Did you know that you could order food off of etsy? Neither did I! Recently I was searching on there for macaron shaped soap bars and discovered people selling real macarons! Infact, there's a whole plants and edible section!
There is absolutely no where local to me that sells macarons. Last Christmas I resorted to making my own, mint with a chocolate ganache filling! They were so tasty, but rather ugly if I do say so myself!
In an attempt to have some real macarons I ordered this petite macaron sampler or three flavors! like this here!
From seller: SparklesKitchen


The flavors included were; Dark chocolate, coffee, and hazelnut.
The chocolate was my favorite as I am a huge chocolate nut. The coffee was my least favorite since I'm not too fond of the beverage. Hazelnut was nice! They were about an inch in diameter, tiny, but very adorable!



The chocolate macaron! In all of it's choctastic glory!

So overall it was a positive thing! I would recommend that you search Esty's plants and edibles section too!

Nelson Atkins Museum


In March or so, there was a lolita meet up at the Kansas City Nelson Atkins museum. This is me and my friend Valerie posing in front of a giant Buddha! Unfortunately the photographer didn't get the Buddha in the shot very well.
I am wearing Juliette et Justine and Valerie is wearing Innocent World!


The lighting in the bathroom was so lovely! I couldn't resist taking a snap!


Close up on face. I am wearing GEO lenses and Tokidoki white eyeliner! The fascinator came from Forever 21.


This couch is so beautiful! I need it in my life ASAP.


The most amazing $7 cheesecake of my life.


Here is a group shot taken by some random photographer who I assume works at the museum...?
