Exploring with Sophie!

I still have barely seen anything of this city it seems. Thank goodness I have Sophie to go on adventures exploring with or I would have seen nothing but the mall by now! Here's what we got into a few weeks ago.

Delicious macaroons from Whole Foods!

The Train depot! Sophie's parents had their first date there :,)

The American Sign Museum. It was closed but we found a lot of awesome stuff in their parking lot! We have to go back when it's open.

The view outside the depot(and me posing :p)

Being Sophie's muse in a fountain!

Raspberry Chocolate French Macaroons!

I've been dying to try macaroons since I first saw lovely pictures of them all over tumblr. However, I have never seen them for sale anywhere! So I looked up the recipe and found one that looked promising. I went to my Grammy for help, since I'm not the best cook, and I really wanted these to turn out. Not to mention she has way more cooking tools than I do :)

Ready to go in the oven! Cute little blobs :)

mm, yum!

Macaroon Mountain!

Duke enjoying one :)

And Jared, haha.

And Grammy!

Oh Charmin, you wish! haha

Overall they turned out really well for our first attempt, and now we know how to make them even better next time! I definitely recommend taking a stab at it.
