Most of Seattle found itself buried in snow (well, as buried in snow as it gets in Seattle) last week, which meant that I spent double the amount of time in front of the television. Snow, however, is so rare here that it’s hard to resist going outside. We managed to peel ourselves away from the fireplace for a short while to walk around the block.

We also attempted macarons for the first time, and needless to say, didn’t come out disastrous.

My birthday was yesterday and instead of condemning myself to a corner all day long (though the thought crossed my mind), I spent it stuffing my face, from bakeries to Italian restaurants. If you can’t beat it, uh, feed it?
