Afternoon Delight

There are some days when you need a little afternoon pick-me-up to get thru the rest of the day or something extra special to cap off the evening. In my opinion, that something special should be not only comforting but decadent and sinfully good for the soul. Dear Readers, rest assured I have two things that fit the criteria perfectly.

May I introduce to you the heavenly macarons of Petite Bouchees. This newly formed company is only currently offering these goodies in Richmond and more importanly on a limited basis. So please get your orders in early!

These lovely little french bites will pair perfectly with the deliciously rich Belgian chocolate from Petrossian. What's so neat about this chocolate is that when swirled in a steaming cup of hot milk, it becomes the stuff of which legends are made.

Both treats could also be a wonderful end to special dinner party. Enjoy!
