Can you believe I almost forgot about my A-Z Photo Project this week?? I pride myself on having never missed any days/weeks of the five year-long photo projects I’ve taken on over the last three years. This is what happens when spring break comes so late in the year! One more week and I’ll be a free woman. Well, free for a week, that is! 😛
So when I realized I had no idea what I was going to shoot for the letter “G”, I asked the boyfriend for suggestions. He came up with the following: Google, goat, grass, gerrymandering, and Jerry Brown among others. He stopped helping after I pointed out that Jerry Brown, our governor, starts with a “J”, not a “G”. This coming from a university professor! He must be tired, too, even though he already had his spring break. Lucky duck. Anyway, I started pondering “gastronomy” since I always have food on the brain, he said “gourmet”, then I said “macarons”, and here we are, $15 worth of deliciousness later. And the most important part? I’m still on time! Wheee! (Can you tell I’m a teacher and hate late assignments?? 😉 )
**I normally only include one shot per letter of the alphabet, but I had fun with these so decided to include three!
very nice shots…you’re welcome with the suggestions…
You were richly rewarded with macarons! 😀
oh yes. thank you!
These look so delicious. Where do you buy them?
At Nugget!
Wonderful Patty 🙂
Thank you, Linda!
Patty even though you’ve almost missed your dead line, you should be proud of the pics you’ve taken… they are gorgeous!
Thanks, Margherita! They were fun to photograph, but loads more fun to eat! 😛
Beautiful photo, Patty! amazing!
Thanks, weebirdie!
So gorgeous Patty!! =)
Thanks, Bonnie!!
Such eye-catching shots! I think I like the middle close-up shot the best, but it’s hard to pick a favorite.
I think it’s my favorite, too, Laura! It’s the one I posted on my FB page. 🙂
More fabulous shots!!!
Thanks, Elaine! I did them quickly so we could eat! 😛
Ha ha ☺️
An “A” for the teacher…nice photos. The macarones look delicious.
Hurrah, an A!! Thanks, Karen! The macarons were super tasty!
Makes me hungry 🙂
Made me full! 😉
Beautiful macarons, gorgeous photos!
Thanks, Nancy!
Those are some good looking macarons — and fancy! yum!
Thanks, Neely. They definitely were yum, indeed!
Yes, fancy pants food sure is fun!
I have never seen macaroons with texture and embellishment like these! Beautiful looking and I’m sure delicious too! As usual, kudos on the amazing photos. Made me laugh the ocmment about the boyfriend . . . my husband’s expertise by training/career also doesn’t extend to some areas you would think it should!
The macarons are delightful, Sue. If I could, I’d eat them double fisted, dozens at a time. This is not an exaggeration!
Oh wow! Gorgeous! I love all 3 of them! I loved hearing your boyfriend’s ideas! 🙂
I didn’t, Lori! He was not very helpful!! 😉
Hehehe 🙂 But they sure were funny! 😉
Yeah, he thought so too! 😉
Hahaha 🙂
Really beautiful pictures! I love them!
Thanks, Serena! 🙂

Wow, those shoots are great… Looks amazing!

I feel like this is always the case when it comes to sweets…
Oh I agree!
