February 16. National Almond day.

Today would've been easy if I just took a picture of the slivered almonds that I had. Boring! It's not like chips or cookies or chocolate. Weren't even a snack pack, it was just half a bag of slivered almonds that I use for baking. Soooooooo I made Macarons.



I ground up my almonds and sifted them to make sure I get rid of the big pieces.


Whipping up my egg whites. I made these pretty late and i'm actually really tired right now I want to just go to sleep...which was probably the reason why I didn't have much patience with it tonight and possibly didn't whip them enough. hehe oooops...

They came out a little flatter than usual, which was expected. But they still look pretty decent and taste the same. I also had some nutella in the pantry so I didn't have to make my filling, which made it so much easier! 

I love how I didn't want to just take a picture of the bag of almonds and wanted to make something crazy with it, and then got tired and took shortcuts, but still managed to make them look and taste good!

Yay me! 

Gooooooooodnight! :)
