For the Boss’ Birthday.

Posted by Michelle on January 26th, 2013 . Filed under: Birthday, Gift Packaging, It's in the Bag!, October Afternoon .

Yay – it’s the weekend!
I’ve got crafty, and baking plans on the docket for the weekend.  I’m going to try my hand at making French macarons.  My husband bought me this book that I wanted for Christmas,

macarons

…I’ve watched YouTube videos on how to make them, and I bought the million-dollar almond meal that they call for.  So I’m all in.  Wish me luck!

Today is also my boss’ birthday.  I packaged up some healthy dried fruit goodies and gave this to him yesterday.
The bag is from my poor, neglected ETSY shoppe that I need to re-stock (and will soon!); patterned paper and stickers are from October Afternoon.
