A Moment of Weakness

When a friend hand -makes, -packages and -delivers fresh macarons to you over lattes on a Sunday morning?ย 

I know, right?

Screw it, right?

These photos were taken today at Small Point Cafรฉ, and they capture exactly why I want to live inside of a coffee shop forever.

Tomorrow (Monday), James and I are heading somewhere special (a surprise from me to him so shhhh don’t tell him if you know) to celebrate five years together. Crazy, right?

Hope you all had a good weekend.

(See Lindsay’s macaron post + tips from her experience making them here.)

      Thank you! and thank you! and thank you! I lost my cannon charger and have been resorting to my iPhone for everything.

    That sounds like a pretty great friend!

    Happy anniversary tomorrow :)

    • Jenna

      She’s such a good friend! She might even start a little business… I’ll need to stay away from her.

      Hi De!! Thanks for commenting – I love first time comments. It’s like, we’re taking our relationship to a new level!!! Thank you, I took these with my iPhone and I’m pretty excited about how they turned out. The macarons were so good, I just wish they were magically paleo.

      Well, the weekend was actually a complete horror show in terms of eating. First, I ate pizza at the video-shoot on our lunch break and then I had macarons for breakfast, essentially. I had a headache all weekend and took two really long naps. Honestly, Pizza? Not worth it at all. Macarons: WORTH EVERYTHING

      NiNE YEARS? Crazy. High school sweet hearts?! He works crazy hours so we weren’t able to celebrate on our actual anniversary (Saturday) but are heading somewhere tonight…

      These photos were taken with my iPhone and edited with “VSCO cam” app… I guess there’s also a program for lightroom with the same filters.

      When I’m not using this I am using a Cannon rebel XT that is about as old as your relationship haha

  • Lindsay

    I love you for posting this! you took such good photos! i’m so glad we were able to meet up yesterday morning! next up a Jenna latte & some heart shaped macarons.

    Have a great time tonight! xo L

    These pictures are great! I produced a radio tour for a professional photographer recently and his biggest tip was that most pictures can honestly be taken with an iPhone, no need for a super fancy camera. This is definitely evidence of that!

  • Anna V

    Yum those look delicious! I’ve actually never had a macaron before…i know…

    have a fun trip!!

  • Julie

    Macarons are so good that they’re essentially from another planet. They don’t even really factor in as human food. (This was the rationalization I used on myself the entire time we were in Paris, in which I convinced Matt we needed to try like 8 different places.) I’ve actually been missing them like crazy lately…perhaps your friend wants to experiment with some cross-country shipping?

  • KatieDid

    Happy Anniversary, hope you’re adventure is fun! and I love loveee these pictures. I’ve had the vsco app for a while but always forget to use it, been using it more now lately though since seeing more of your pictures.

  • Jessica

    Beautiful! I have a full blown addiction to the latte this month so…thanks.

    Also, best pictures ever.

  • soshy
