Macaroni without the i



During Christmas break (so long ago!) I visited one of my favorite places, Honey B's Macarons. The shop is located in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. They make, decorate, and sell macarons that are made with the finest ingredients including honey from their hives in Castle Pines. The macarons also have the most adorable decorations which are so pretty that you don't want to eat them! When you walk in the shop the macarons are lined up and a honeycomb like structure is behind the counter. The employees also greet you and tell you how macaron is pronounced, macaroni without an i.
There are lots of flavors offered and all taste incredible. I love that the macarons all taste like the real thing, mostly because they are made with the real things. It's also refreshing that they aren't overly sugary like many things are. During this visit to the shop I purchased (from left to right) White Chocolate Macadamia, Hazelnut, Sugar Cookie Dough, Chocolate Orange, Gingerbread, Honey, Pistachio, Blueberry Jam, Earl Grey, Fig, Goat Cheese Pear, Walnut, Birthday Cake, and Neapolitan.




My friend, Nai and I went!



White Chocolate Macadamia
Not only is this macaron decorated beautifully but beautifully tasting! The macadamia made up the filling and shined when combined with the cookie for an amazing dessert.


Hazelnut
Hazelnut tasted very much like the nut.

Sugar Cookie Dough
Sugar cookie Dough was so adorable! The pink and sprinkles were too cute! It tasted just like Sugar Cookie dough, and dare I say even better. 



Chocolate Orange
  Orange Chocolate was gorgeous. It tasted just like a chocolate orange and the flavor was incredibly rich and vibrant.
Gingerbread
Gingerbread pleasantly surprised me! I like gingerbread, but I don’t know I just didn't think I’d like a gingerbread macaron, but it blew me away! The little sugar crystals are adorable and when you take a bite wow does it taste like gingerbread. All of the spices are bursting and oh so fab!


Honey
Honey tasted just like the Honeycomb cereal, but without the sugar. The filling was lovely and so sweet. The Cookie was soft with a little crunch and tasted like sweet honey.
Pistachio
I actually forgot to take a picture, but don't worry it is just as great as the others.
Pistachio actually has little pistachio bits in the filling and tastes fantastic.

 Blueberry Jam
Blueberry Jam (The bottom left) tastes just like a blueberry! Probably because they used real blueberries. It’s like the perfect blueberry not sour and not squishy sweet. Perfect combination!


Earl Grey
Earl Grey (the grey one) is a savory macaron and it tastes just like tea! There is such a nice herbal flavor in it and the painting on it adds even more class.

Fig, Goat Cheese, Pear, and Walnut
The Fig, Goat Cheese, Pear, and Walnut macaron is one of my favorites. I love that it is more savory than the others and just as delicious. The filling consists of pear, fig and walnut pieces while I believe the cookie is where the cheese is figured in. The combination makes a unique macaron with excellent flavor

Birthday Cake
Birthday cake is adorable and decorated with itty-bitty sprinkles. It tastes just like a vanilla birthday cake!


Neapolitan
 Finally Neapolitan was fabulous! It is one of their limited edition macarons that is filled with strawberry and chocolate with a vanilla shell. So Scrumptious!

I love Honey B's Macarons! The flavors are magnificent and the in store experience
just adds to it. They also have a new website, https://www.honeybsmacarons.com/
and their macarons can even be ordered online!

God Bless!

The Best Experience of my Young Life: Casa Bonita

      I read an article by Westword that read if Disneyland and Tijuana had a baby and left it to fend for itself in a strip mall on Colfax, it’d be Casa Bonita. I finally got to experience this gem with some of my friends, Nai and Hannah, who have also been eager to try the restaurant out.       We pulled into the packed parking lot of Casa Bonita that stood in the same shopping complex as two dollar stores and a kids dental office next door. People surrounded the outside as the fountain splashed and I took photos as rapidly as a mom on Christmas morning. This was it, the best of themed dining experiences. We entered into a very confusing entryway and found the line, but first we stopped by the bathroom, which happened to be very nice. We stood in the red velvet roped line with other epicures, such as ourselves, waiting to order at the register. The line was dark, but illuminated by Corona neons, a sign with the words “Easto Much, Peso Little”, a vi...

Summer Style 2019

This summer I have been trying to expand my wardrobe. I noticed I have many solid color shirts and my outfits have gotten boring. I have been trying to change this by getting a top in every color to change it up. It has been a little tough because I try to follow Karl Lagerfeld's advice of purchasing pieces I either need or really love. There really is no reason to spend money on clothing you sort of like, you got to love it. Click on the titles of the clothing to get to the link. Ralph Lauren Polo Flag Cotton Sweater I love this summer sweater! I mean who doesn't love a summer sweater! It is so patriotic and perfect for chilly summer nights. I am looking forward to purchasing this sweater later this summer. Plus, it's on sale!  Brooks Brothers Tipped Supima Cotton Shell This tank top is basic, but so easy to dress up with accessories. This one is also on sale. Lilly Pulitzer Dusk Racer Back Silk Tank Top I absolutely adore this tank top. Lilly ...
