Cookies and Cream Macarons

Whenever I tell people I’m going to make macarons, they always say: “Oh you mean Macaroons; right?”

Then I have to explain, “No these are French cookies. Macarons.” Then they just nod and say, “Oh, okay.” Kind of like when you can’t understand a toddler or someone with a really heavy accent, and you don’t want to keep asking, “What? Huh?” So, you just let it go.
