Wow! 2020 has been moving fast! It's already spring here and temperatures are starting to rise into the 20°C. But, while we would much rather spend our days at the beach, we're confined to our homes due to the Covid-19 outbreaks around the world. This might be frustrating and annoying, but I also believe that it's an opportunity. A chance to concentrate on what's really important. A chance to really connect with each other, even though we cannot ...

For this year at least. The sweetness of the garden-ripe heirloom & cherry tomatoes. The lovely, cool freshness of diced watermelon. A tangy mustard-lemon-olive ...
Roasted Potato Cucumber Salad
Nothing says summer better than a BBQ or picnic in the outdoors. Am I right? And this year I feel like it's especially important to get into a more relaxed, laid-back summer mode.
