flaky, doughy, and elegant. with a soundtrack of peter, bjorn, and john's paris 2004.

almondrados: a passover-friendly alternative to coconut macaroons.

chewy and soo lemony {though i added but half of the lemon zest that the recipe calls for}.

people often ask: molly, how you eat all this shit and not be 500 pounds?

my answer is that on most days, i'm a healthy hannah. veggies, whole grains, lots of running...

but this week was the exception. my winter gym membership ended. i never went grocery shopping.

i had huevo tortas upon huevo tortas, midnight mac and cheese, and perhaps too many vodka tonics.

but it's ok because now i am home with mum and planning the seder to end all seders.

-yeh!!!
