During my past two trips to Napa, it was necessary that we go and try Bouchon Bakery since well, Thomas Keller owns it! The first trip, me and my brother just had some bread and thats about it. By the second trip came around I already had a grip on what I should really get. By the way, during the second trip, Bouchon was filled and we had ordered every type of macaron that day and some other pastries and bread. When we were about to check out Chef Keller walked in and picked up a baguette and he had his cup of joe. Being in his presence made me wobbly at the knees. For the fellow foodies who recognize him, I am sorry for not having a photo...I was in shock.

| Seasonal Blueberry Macaron. I believe the brown ones in the back were chocolate and cappuchino or expresso. |

| Pistachio Macaron |
 |
| Strawberry Macaron. A little too sweet. |

| The Blueberry Macaron was my favorite of the day. The exterior had a nice crisp to a transition of soft gooeyness and cream. Literally one of the best snack desserts ever. Chef Keller's pastry chefs did well with this recipe. |

| Simple glazed bread pudding |
