Perfect Sunday Morning

Just wanted to post what a wonderful morning I had. It was raining this morning then the sun came out so the air was nice and crisp and fresh. I woke up refreshed with the feeling of peacefulness. My perfect morning started with a nice cup of English Breakfast tea and macarons (rose, coffee, earl grey tea). Out of all the macaron places I've tried I would have to say lette macarons would have to be my favorite so far. Where is your favorite macaron from???
