Macarons for a Birthday

So a friend's birthday recently went by and I promised them that I would make Green Tea Macarons for them.

I'm happier with the outcome - except for the first batch which I overbaked a bit. However, I think I am gettting used to the different oven temperatures and knowing when to rescue a potential overcooking! Oh and I almost forgot to mention that I left the green tea powder at home so the filling is less green tea like than I would have wanted. 

And apologies for not updating my blog, the last thing I made was a card but I forgot to take a photo of it.

I'll be happy when all this planning stuff is over and I actually get some time back to do crafty things again!
