croquembouche

I have sudden cravings for a cold glass of coquito in April, and sometimes think about a croquembouche festooned with drips of caramel in July.

It doesn't matter if you're microwaving a store-bought macaroni and cheese or embarking on a holiday expedition to make the perfect croquembouche, set the intention, put on your favorite playlist and get to it!

My problems didn't magically disappear after conquering the croquembouche, but it taught me that I'm perfectly capable of climbing mountains, no matter how crooked or burnt they may be.

I came across a 2-page spread about how to make a croquembouche.

Normally, I would have cared that my croquembouche didn't resemble the perfect magazine picture, but I felt proud of the work I had done.
