On very rare occasions...
Our family consciously chose to consume meat only once a week, and beef only on very rare occasions. Today is the day...

A beautiful quiche loaded with green vegetables: asparagus, broccoli, spinach. I have also added some oyster mushrooms and all the aromatic herbs: fresh dill, parsley, thyme and a pinch of nutmeg for a final touch.

Favorite sweater and the warm home made game meet pies are keeping me warm these days...

This shot was inspired by a lovely red phone booth in London. It's fascinating how you can find inspiration in most unusual places.

Home made savory game meet pies. A truly heartwarming food for a chilly day.

The hot chocolate season is here and making it with a home made marshmallows is such a game changer. It immediately became our families HIT. I hope this photo conveys the contrast of frosty weather and a cup of warm hot chocolate.

I was getting my spice ready for an apple crumble pie and after putting them on the table I’ve realized that the spice (not the pie) will become the hero of my shot.

Paella. When it becomes dark and rainy outside I like to take my family to a short culinary journey. This time to the seashores of sunny Spain. The bright yellow rice, the taste of shafron and the scent of shells magically bring back all the summer memories. So when the autumn and the rain becomes too heavy, invite the sun into your plate.

Bread is a whole more than just a mere food. A simple loaf of bread is part of life, a daily necessity, that makes life a lot more hearty, fragrant, comforting and healthy. Forever grateful and never forgetting to appreciate the simple things in life. Never taking it for granted.
