Hello November

I love the month of November.  For a number of reasons.

Thanksgiving. 
Black Friday. 
The two are the perfect pairing, really. 

My birthday is this month.  Birthday months are the best. My mail box and inbox are filled with birthday coupons. Like I need another excuse to shop. I digress.  

The tradition continues in the month of November. THE Ohio State University plays the state up north.  This year I will be at the game with my lovely sister who is a buckeye grad. 

Happy November!

On a side note, I started the month out with a perfect day. I ventured down to German Village today. I had lunch with a friend at a local deli called Brown Bag.  Amazing eats and an amazing atmosphere.  After lunch, I made a stop at Pistacia Vera. Why? Because when you're in German Village, it is a must.  

Pistacia Vera is the perfect dessert boutique.  Everything is handmade and delicious.  My favorite on the menu: Macarons.  Yes, to the foodies out there.  There is a difference between Macaroons and Macarons  in not only the spelling of the words but meanings.  

The Macaron is their signature. It's a light nut meringue sandwich cookies with buttercream filling.  

They're beautiful.
