Call me crazy (I'm not even French), but I get into the spirit of the day. Typically Silly Hat Central celebrates Bastille Day with a French-style meal, a Bastille Day cocktail and a few impromptu exclamations of "Storm the Bastille!"
Not quite the fever of joviality that descends upon Paris, but il est bon, oui?
This year there will be macarons. Yes! There will be be macarons!
What? You want to get in on the mac action?
