Koti on miellyttävä, tyylikäs ja luokseen kutsuva. Seinällä on suuri mustavalkoinen hääkuva. Ikkunoista sisään tulviva valo valloittaa tilan ja asettaa pehmeän valkoisen hehkunsa huoneeseen. Tunnelma on rauhallinen, maistelen ristrettoani hitaasti. Pia kertoo uskomatonta tarinaansa, jossa ideana on jäljen jättäminen. Puhuessaan hänestä huokuu, suoran ja avoimen olemuksensa välittämänä, aseistariisuvan tarinankertojan hehku. Vuonna 2014 Pia perusti yrityksensä…

These moments feel almost miraculous, and are too rare to be forgotten. They are celebrated, fondly remembered and more often than not, they have a flavor…
Flour Power!
Once you figured out a good challah bread recipe, there is no going back. It took me a few years, many horrifyingly failed, stone-hard attempts in order to find the one I’m proud to call “mine” If you google “challah bread” you’ll probably get hit with 100’s of recipes.
