bay window bar

Wednesday 30th of August

Afternoon coffee break in the frontyard. We use our bay window as a serving hatch for breakfast, coffee, lunch or drinks in our 'petit parc parisien'. However one of us has to go to the kitchen again for a refill.

Coffee is served from the bay window in rustic portuguese espresso cups from Casa Cubista Olhão.

I never put these handmade cups in the dishwasher and don't mind washing them by hand.

The huge rubber plant (Ficus elastica) I rescued from the 'sad & damaged houseplant corner' with a few broken leaves in February 2020 and it's starting to look like a tree nowadays.

When he asks how I want my egg and I say surprise me...

Henk prepared all the options; fried egg, omelette, boiled egg, scrambled egg and a poached egg. Bon appetit!

How to cure wanderlust when you can't travel?

Well as long as we can't travel, we can still cook and fill the kitchen with delicious scents that evoke a feeling of travel.

Yesterday I cooked Sabich, a simple and delicious veggie dish from the Neni Tel Aviv cookbook.

Today I'm going to try one of the recipes from my new cookbook. I'll make the salad with avocado, apple, pomegranete and mint. Sounds okay right?!

La Famille has released a cookbook of their Moroccan-Italian recipes.
The cookbook was a gift from my friend and workshop partner Ank, because it's one of our favorite lunch places in the Medina.
