i finally, finally, finally was able to make a trip out to paulette, a couple of weeks ago, for some macarons. and honestly i have no idea how i've lived so long without this place! 

a feast for your eyes and belly! not only does this place look amazing, the macarons taste incredible as well! some days i contemplate making the dive out to beverly hills just to get my hands on a box of goodness that these macarons are {yes, they're that good}. 

don't live near LA? fear not! paulette offers online ordering with overnight shipping!!
