AboutWe are Jenna and Mark, a designer and pastry chef living in Brooklyn, NY and parents of two little girls. Sweet Fine Day is a visual record of family meals and a journal of projects both in and out of the kitchen. In addition to working as an art director / designer and pastry chef, we started this blog to document our process as we launch our own food business.
Finally! A sunny Sunday. The day beat all weather odds, despite the cloudy start and we have our first real sunny Flea day. Yesterday we packed lavender cookie packs to be included in 50 goody bags for an event held by Small Magazine & Corduroy Kid later this afternoon. And below is our mini 6-pack of coconut five spice macaroons that Mark’s testing out at the Flea today. I’m a sucker for all things small and miniature.
ok - so i stopped by the sweetest stand at the Brooklyn flea and bought the chocolate orange cardamom shortbread cookies…the honey lavender shortbread cookies, the coconut macaroons, a luscious brownie (espresso with dulce de leche)….and the homemade chocolate marshmallows.
so far i have only tried the cookies — and they are perfection. Exactly the right amount of buttery softness…with spice. Truly amazing. Classy.
my personal favorite so far: honey lavender shortbread.
more soon, christie
i can’t wait to try the macaroons. will you be at the flea this sunday?
