I’m super happy - because today is my day off…! It’s been a while since my last leisurely day, it’s been a while. So I finally get back to blogging a bit. Double yay! Of course, I’m not planning on spending the day doing nothing… No. I’ve got a full schedule. First, I’m going toContinue reading
Incredible how fast time goes by… I’ve been meaning to get into Holiday Baking much earlier, but life got in the way. December… Gotta love this season! So many plans, so little time. As it turns out, this Sunday was the first opportunity to simply bake something (not strictly necessary). So I got into theContinue reading
when we spent a weekend italy recently, on a vineyard together with friends, we also managed (because that’s always my priority) to visit the market in ponte tresa, briefly. the “stuff” they sell there is negligible. but, oh, the food… mountains of italian cheeses - mozzarelle, burrate, scamorze, fontine, parmigiane, gorgonzole… - salumi on endContinue reading
soon after launching the best in class series, i’m back! it’s got to be said that i’m fully aware that throwing around me with superlatives like “legendary”, “perfect”, “best in class”, “genius”, “classic” or “world’s best” in the combination with food might be tempting (especially as a food blogger, who wants to trick readers -Continue reading

today, it’s healthy desserts day again. because i’m knee-deep into this very interesting and fun project, where i get to research - and cook up - what feels like a hundred healthy dishes. ask me anything about superfoods - chances are, i’ll come up with a wikipedia-worthy reply in a whiff! still lazy as fuckContinue reading
the first snow is always something magic. even as a grown-up, the magic of the first snow does not fail to amaze me. i can’t wait to dance in the snow and dig my fingers in it. maybe even touch a handful with my cheeks. to feel falling snowflakes on my lashes, melting quickly uponContinue reading
vanilla is kind of my favorite ingredient. a friend of mine, who’s a wine seller, also sells a couple of selected, top notch delicatessen. he has this insane vanille going on, that’s thicker than your thumb (honestly), super rich and moist and just, basically, heaven in a thing. they’re individually packaed - shrink-wrapped, to sealContinue reading
