Hectic Macaron Day at Zumbo's PHOTO DUMP ONE

Talking to wendy the other day. Conversation went something like this:

wendy: I like pig's heads. and macarons
me: I like macarons too. wait I've never tried macarons
wendy: wtf? omg hey... I know we have 101010 exams to study for BUT zumbo's releasing 99999 flavours of macarons for his birthday
me: how do you know this
wendy: I religiously stalk zumbo's website


(sort of...)

So this morning we ditch accounting and engineering to visit zumbo's cafe (aka. land of macarons)

AND HERE, MY FRIENDS, ARE PHOTOS
Hopefully you are viewing them from the other side of exams =P

Although I did talk to a girl in the shop who, with a few friends, ordered ONE OF EVERY MACARON. A $120 macaron haul! They are clearly going to be eating macarons for breakfast lunch and dinner for the next week or two (SO JEALOUS)

Notice the bright red one in the bottom right package! That, eden, is what your Cheeseburger Macaron looked like before it got squashed and melted into nothing (by the time she got it at university haha)
