Shopping basket
»I fell in love with this green shopping basket at a market in Portugal. We were traveling by bus and the basket was a faithful companion to us, and it has been ever since.«
Favorite cake recipe
»Unfortunately, I recently lost my grandmother. One of my favorite keepsakes of her is grandma’s amazing red wine cake. I can‘t remember a single visit to her house where we didn‘t eat this cake at some point, it was always there. Shortly before her death, I asked her to write down the recipe for me.«
Chemex pot and my coffee cup
»I really love coffee, especially from our Chemex coffee pot. We use it multiple times a day, and I really like the look of this design classic. I also have a special morning coffee cup that I bought in New York City at the shop called Recreation Center. Standing on a wooden plate by Stephan & Schmid.«
Salt and pepper shaker
»Admittedly, we don‘t really use the salt and pepper shakers that often, but I found them in my parent's attic and have been in love ever since.«
Silver spoon
»My mother-in-law left us this great silver spoon. She loved Indian food and I think of her every time I use it.«
