The French? Supersizing? Tssss... What has the world come to? Funny, they did not supersize the bottle of Moet et Chandon in the background. Great shot, Virginia. Les gros gâteaux are certainly cheerful looking. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Oh Virginia, between Genie with the 'pain au chocolat' and yourself with the macarons....what's a girl (well that's stretching it a bit haha!) a woman..to do!!
Peu importe la grosseur... l'ivresse des macarons! hum, je ne résiste pas!! merci pour cette belle photo qui me donne l'eau à la bouche; Gros bisous... sucrés!
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, part-time painter, lover of all things French ( whose français is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic art museum volunteer, grateful community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". My 2008 trip I looked at Paris with a different eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip. I was thrilled to return to Paris and the French countryside in June and July of 2009, and blogged daily while there. I've returned to the city I love in January and June- 2010 , January 2011 and January 2012! Each time I visit, it feels more and more like home, and I discover new and interesting things with each trip. I cherish the time with my Paris friends as well as the friends that always join me there. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

Delicious indeed - and I have just had my breakfast!!! ;-)
I spied the Moet too! Moet and macarons! Sounds intriguing.

Now you know what I meant when I wrote it took me two days to eat one.
The colors are so brilliant! How can something that looks so good taste so...blugh?
Yes please I'll have a box of each colour, bright and tacky as they are!
One of these days I'm going to work up the courage to try making a batch of these... but for now seeing them supersized has intimidated me even more!
What a great photo -- love all the colors.
That's something I'd be happy to Supersize! Hope you and Meeps are having a beautiful weekend, dear V.
Wonderful shot - your photography classes must be full!
Wow! Who would have thought giant macarons. Dangerous! :)
Is a moon pie like a whoopie pie?
