03/31/2003 Entry: "Au Revoir Macarons"

My last day with the macaron team... I feel a bit sentimental now. Although I'm happy that my days sifting 50+ kilos of almond powder for hours are over, I will definitely miss the macaronniers -- they were a fun team to work with. I'll be back to say goodbye sometime this week though. I will be working in the boutique the rest of the week, hopefully NOT doing Ispahans. Eddy told me to call him if they let me do Ispahans again. Finally, you will get to see some of the people I've been working with for the past 3 months...

Chef Eddy making the macaron batter (He's trying to look serious)	Michel happily tapping away
Chatting at Breakfast (we don't always have the luxury of a break like this!)	Turning and Filling Chocolate Macarons -- Eddy said something funny so Michel is laughing
Dai, Me, Tony, Michel, Sandra, Eddy --Tony and Sandra work with the puff pastry, they don't usually work with the macaronniers. We all look kinda funny in this picture because Bubakar took so long -- he seemed to want a picture of the table more than the team, heh.	Michel took this, so it's much better although a bit dark -- this is a more natural pose
