World Series Champions Macarons - Run #20

It goes without saying that the San Francisco Giants kicked major boo-tay in the 2012 World Series.

Can you believe it's already been a month since the win? 

Like I said in my WS post, I made these macarons before Game 4 even started.  I already had that feeling that magic was happening that night.  Thank goodness they did win because I would have totally been moded otherwise!  These were such fun to make and I can't wait to make more celebratory macarons in the future!

SF 49ers, SF Bulls, Golden State Warriors - let's go! 

(...and here's me crossing my fingers for the SJ Sharks!)

San Jose Sharks Macarons - Run #16

I miss my Sharkies. I swear. This NHL lockout is getting me frustrated. With the Giants winning the World Series and the end of the MLB season, I don't know what to do with myself.

The Niner games are on once a week and its proven that it is not good for my blood pressure to watch their games. Tie?! Really?! I never was into the Warriors much. The Chicago Bulls in the 90's were my team. Period. And I'm just catching interested in the SF Bulls hockey team. So what now?!

In the NHL, I appreciate the fact that they can beat each other up when the enforcers get frustrated. I miss it so much. I suppose I can support the SF Bulls until the head honchos at the NHL can figure it out.

Til then I just have to enjoy my San Jose Sharks-inspired macarons. I tried making the shells in the same technique as I used with the birthday cake [cake cake cake] macs I made last month. The teal was on the greener side than blue, but I am extremely please with how the design came out.

Hey, at least my hubbies Ryane Clowe (San Francisco team) and Devin Setoguchi (Ontario team) are playing North America-side while my other faves are signed in Europe. I missed them last Saturday and they have another one coming up on Black Friday.

See you there!!
