Seriously. Who does not want to send Lotta Lundgren and Emi Guner free clothes? There are not many other people in the Swedish, or German, Media that I feel more respect for and at the same time make me smile. As a, somewhat overused but oh so true example: If Lotta tells me to cook a stew on my own pet … Read More

Spekkoek
I think it only happened 3 times over the years that I personally asked for a trade. But last week I could not help it: I was craving for spekkoek. 1,5 years ago, for Easter Dinner, I was introduced to this Thousand layered Indonesian-Dutch Cake (Indonesian – Lapis Legit) that my friend Robin van der Kaa made. It is a relic from … Read More

City dogs need holiday
My friend Rahel has a Weimaraner named Finn. We all knew that there is something very special about Finn. Finn has been photographed by Mario Testino. And modeling for Stefanel. I would not say that all this fame has gone him over his head. He is still the same loveable soul that he always was. The first time I took … Read More
Saturdays Bread Exchange is sweeter than ever.
But, as usual, sweet darlings tend to match excellent with ruff partners. Like Roqueforts. Or really really old Gruyere. So don’t worry if you don’t have a sweet tooth, I am sure you will find the balance. Tomorrow I will have the following 2 Sourdoughs for you: Blueberry Crusted White Chocolate sourdough. I tried it on friends already and it … Read More
