October Box: Halloween Chocolates
Hey friends,
As you may know, I’ll be having ankle surgery on Friday, September 16th.
If you receive one of the shipped boxes, you may be seeing this after I’ve already had surgery. lol I’m really not sure what to expect, but from what I’ve read, the recovery often takes several months or over a year for some. I’m obviously praying I’ll have a quick recovery, but my doctor said that a large part of recovery is resting. 👀 😐
With that being said, I’ve decided that I will be ending the subscription boxes for now. 😔
My heart is heavy, but I’ve given this a lot of thought. Ultimately, I think it’ll be a little easier for me to focus on recovering and eventually physical therapy—while being in school full-time—if I have less pressure on myself to keep up with orders.
Thank you all so much for subscribing. You have absolutely no idea how much it means to me that you’ve enjoyed my macarons so much. Some of you have been subscribing for months or even a whole year now! I feel like this subscription has been as much of a commitment for you as it has been for me. 🥹
Once I’ve bounced back enough to balance school, family and work, I hope to be able to start doing regular macaron and cookie sales again. I may even start doing the subscription boxes (or a different kind of subscription) again in the future.
Thank you so much for your support and understanding. I love you all! ❤️🩹

And the special treat this month was going to be a decorated cookie, but I ran out of time. So I figured chocolate brownies (with toffee pieces and a light sprinkling of crushed butterfingers on top) was perfect for this month’s theme! These brownies are SO chocolatey and they were a nightmare to cut, but they are SO good!
