The moment I stepped foot in Macaron Tart, I was impressed. The sights, smells, colors, and atmosphere felt like a place I needed to be. And the adorable owner (Elena Hocking) who runs the location is just the cutest. I honestly felt like I was able to get a taste of Paris right in the middle of my own city. The pastries are delicious, the macarons are incredible, and the all day brunch option is awesome. Plus, Macaron Tart does high tea, offers cooking classes, and is a great place and space to have some me time, girlfriend dates, and a good time. What I love the most about this particular establishment is that it’s female-owned which is amazing because clearly, the future is female, and it’s a pleasure seeing and supporting extraordinary women in the area who are doing big things. If you’re in the Hampton Roads area and looking for a lovely place to unwind and treat yourself, check out Macaron Tart. Do something fun this weekend and enjoy yourself. TGIF!

When we had plans to meet for an outing, he didn’t show up, and then texted me about a week later with an apology. We chilled at my place a few times, had a few phone conversations, and exchanged occasional texts, but eventually he stopped responding to me
