I made whole wheat bread! The process of making bread takes me back to my childhood, in Italy my grandma used to have a big brick oven in her kitchen, she would regularly make both bread and pasta. I remember that I was always mesmerized by looking at her using all that flour, rolling pin and all the accessorizes I would ask questions about. I would feel such a grown up when helping her. The best part though was that she would make a separate bread for me in the shape of a kid, almost like the gingerbread man, and I would feel so special!I think we would have had a pretty good time baking together!  You should all give it a try and make some bread!All right now, enough with the chat, hope it didn’t get too boring!  Twitter // Facebook // Instagram

Lately in love with this tea: majorelle mint .  During the winter I am not a coffee drinker, exception made only for lattes at Maialino, so sometimes drinking the same tea (english breakfast) can get a bit boring.So what I like to do is, spice it up changing teas and tisanes and methods of preparing it with different infusers. It definitely puts me in a good mood, instantly! Twitter // Facebook // Instagram
