The Daughter found these little cookies at a local shop. The package said they were imported from Italy, which sounded like fun. She got one package of lemon- and one of orange-flavored, which were the only 2 flavors at this store, but the Cuorenero Macaron Sweet Biscuit website lists 6 different flavors in all. These little cookies are good! Not too sweet.
They taste good with the Whittard English Breakfast leaf tea. We made a pot to go with the cookies, and it was all delicious.
This cup and saucer are Anchor Hocking Azurite Charm and were picked up at an antique mall in Arkansas on a family vacation years ago. I like the shape. The pattern is from the first half of the 50s and is no longer made.
Tea time! It's a calming influence in my life.
Please join the weekly T(ea) gathering over at Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog.

Oh what a great mid-century style cup. I'd have snapped that one up too. The cookies look perfect for tea time.

yes, i love some of the mid-century styles. a little variety for my tea time :)
DeleteLove vintage dishware, and especially in white! Anchor Hocking is always good...and am wishing I had one of those lemon cookies right now...lemon is my favorite! Thanks for sharing...♥
ReplyDeleteooo, yes! i like the lemon ones best!
DeleteI used to be drawn to Victorian, but now I am in love with mid-century modern. That cup and saucer are super examples of that era. The atomic age, I think they called it. Those cookies look delicious. It's been FOREVER since I've had a macaroon, and these look irresistible.
ReplyDeleteThanks (to your daughter, too) for sharing this lovely Tea cup and macaroons with us this T Tuesday.
oh, i like victorian style, too. it's variety that i like lol
DeleteYour tea today looks oh so lovely and inviting
ReplyDeleteand
just perfect in that pretty cup too!
One of my blog friends recently made macaroons from scratch with her friend...
what an adventure they had...
Happy T Day to you
macaroons from scratch! i'm impressed. :)
DeleteLove your tea set. I've been drawn to square dishes lately.
ReplyDeletei do like the square ones. we tried square dinner plates, but they were huge!
DeleteCookies and tea, what's better and such a lovely tea set! I have to say lemon is my favourite too, but you can bet that the orange ones wouldn't be safe in my house either :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday :)
yes, the orange ones were good, too. i'd like to try all the flavors :)
DeleteI really like your Anchor Hocking cup. Their designs always capture my attention too.
ReplyDeleteThose "cookies" love heavenly.
Happy T-day
the old anchor hocking dishes do appeal to me. the cookies were light as a feather :)
DeleteI love your vintage tea cup and saucer. Those cookies look very much like French macarons-very delicate- and sweet. Happy T day!
ReplyDeletethey were delicate -light, but they weren't actually very sweet compared to the cookies we usually get.
DeleteAha! I was thinking that cup looked like cups I saw when I was a kid! I don't think I've ever had a macaroon. Looks like a lovely Italian tea break. ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy T-Day! :)
i highly recommend these little macaroons! they were perfect for tea :)
DeleteHello, what pretty dishes, I LOVE white!! Wish you could share your treat with us too, grin! Happy T Day!
ReplyDeletethese are actually a very pale blue, but i also like white :) happy t day! :)

DeleteThe square shaped tea cup looks lovely. Those cookies look very yummy too.
ReplyDeletethx! :)
DeleteI couldn't live without tea. Okay, that might be a slight exaggeration, but I would be a really cranky person.
ReplyDeletetea is certainly a great help, that's so true.
DeleteOh, those macarons look heavenly! And the squarish tea cup and saucer look extra special. Looks like you had a great T Day. Hope you're enjoying the rest of your week, too.
ReplyDeletegreat week so far, thx :) i hope yours is enjoyable, too!
