{Tea in Atlanta with a Blogger Friend I Admire}

FINALLY I get to post this... Meeting a very sweet and special Blogger Friend, Tamago and her husband 
Tamago writes the very humorous and fun blog: GOROGORO & NIKONIKO about her two adorable cat-boys.
Devoted Cat-Mamas together; Tamago to the right.
We enjoyed some tea and dessert at the Grand Hyatt Atlanta in Buckhead where we were staying for a free night, annual gift that comes with their Visa card's anniversary.
This makes Tamago my 6th Blogger Friend that I met in person.
It is always very special to do so.
Mr. D. with my Pieter, two devoted Cat-Daddies.
This was on June 28 of 2015.
Thank you sweet Tamago for this special photo of the two of us together!
As usual we did exchange some delicious cookies...
Again I'd baked some Amaretti Cookies from Almond Meal with Coconut Palm Sugar to bring with me.
Sweet Tamago and Mr. D. gifted us with some very special individually wrapped Macarons from the Mozart Bakery.
This very special Bakery also seems to have a restaurant and we for sure will check it out within a couple of months!
The thrill of tasting a Mango Macaron!
For the color I added these orange Hibiscus...
And of course served, using the Japanese lacquered tray with Kyushu teapot and Japanese teacup, in honor of Friend Tamago.
Sorry for having eaten this yummy Mango Macaron almost before taking a picture!
Mozart Bakery's Macarons are yummy and their tastes are: 
Blueberry
Chocolate
Coffee
Green Tea
Mango
Strawberry
Tiramisu
Vanilla...

Thank you so very much sweet Tamago and Mr. D.!
Wish we would live closer and do this more often.

  7. Hello Mariette,
    It is indeed very special to meet with blogger friends!
    I don't count them any more but I have never been disappointed, on the contrary.
    When we share the same interests, it can only be an extraordinary experience.
    Sorry I haven't come to your blog more often these days, but since I have sold my property, I am extremely busy now, clearing, sorting, discarding stuff and looking for a place to rent or buy...
    I think of you often and truly appreciate your friendship :)
    Many thanks for kind and supportive words, I still feel very weak some times.
    Much love and take good care of each other

  22. Bloggertreffen sind was Schönes. Ich hatte leider noch nicht das Vergnügen. Die meisten wohnen zu weit weg, da fehlt die Zeit. Aber vielleicht ergibt sich ja bald einmal die Gelegenheit.

    Liebe Grüße
