Underoo's and Innashnal guests, August 2012!
And from Wikipedia:
The town of Nancy in the Lorraine region has a storied history with the macaron. It is said that the abbess of Remiremont founded an order of nuns called the "Dames du Saint-Sacrement" with strict dietary rules prohibiting the consumption of meat. Two nuns, Sisters Marguerite and Marie-Elisabeth are credited with creating the Nancy macaron to fit their dietary requirements. They became known as the 'Macaron Sisters' (Les Soeurs Macarons). In 1952, the city of Nancy honored them by giving their name to the Rue de la Hache, where the macaron was invented.[8]

Serious question now: Anthony and i were just talking about me and my moods and my drinking triggers and he said something along the lines of " instead of being on a site about alcohol problems and talking about bipolar shouldn't I be on a bipolar site talking about alcohol?" Raised a few doubts in my mind about how to approach my issues - thoughts??"Life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans" - John Lennon
