Madeleine French Bakery, Khobar

It's the first ever year that my friends haven't waited all summer for my elaborate birthday party, no cake baking in the oven, no running out at 9 pm on the fourth because we have run out of butter for the frosting of my cake, no hardly sleeping that night because I can hardly wait for my party tomorrow. 

August 5th has always been my favourite day of the summer. The first few days of August can never seem to go quick enough. This year is a little different. Having just moved abroad, I don't yet have enough friends to have a party, and we still don't have that kitchen mixer from our shipment to be whipping up a beautiful cake tonight. So we knew we had to make it special somehow.

We ended up finding this cute little bakery called Madeleine French Bakery, and it was soooo nice. They had so many cute treats... ( I even found macarons! ) I thought I'd share some photos of the many nice things they had. Also, the staff were super nice, we told them it was my birthday tomorrow and he slipped me a little " Happy Birthday" macaron... it was amazing. ( I also have 2 more for tonight ) 

















My mom ended up with a creme brûlée, my dad chose something called a Bahamas...
vanilla cake like thing, and as I said, I got two vanilla bean macarons. We also ordered me a red velvet cake for my birthday tomorrow... it can't come soon enough!
