To brighten up your Sunday...

Kelly @ JAX Decor & Design
My hubby and I went to Luxembourg & Belgium for Christmas in 2007. I wandered into Luxembourg City on my own early on New Year's Day. Most of the shops were closed, but I saw some people walking around carrying awesome bright green & brown bags from a place called Wenge. I thought it was a home decor store, so I walked up and down every street looking for it. When I found Wenge, it turned out to be a restaurant & pastry shop. Bummer. I started to walk away, but then the display in the window drew me back. It was macarons of all different colours. Absolutely beautiful. And expensive!! But it was New Year's Day, so I bought a dozen for my hubby and me and the couple we were staying with for a little treat.

I saved the awesome bright green and brown box that the macarons came in, thinking I would use it in some sort of project one day. And now that I have a project in mind, I can't find the box. Grrrr... But anyway, with the memory of those macarons back, I went online and found the Wenge web site. The pictures of the macarons on the site are SO colourful and beautiful, I thought I'd share them with you. A little Sunday eye candy...

I'm trying to think if I've ever eaten one of those! Clearly I have been missing out. Love the colourful post!
