CHICK IN APRON

Hey Reader, This week I noticed something about myself that I think you might relate to. Every afternoon, right around that moment when the emails slow down but the to-do list is still staring at me, I kept craving something sweet. Not a giant dessert or a sugar crash, but a small nutritious bite that is guilt-free. And instead of fighting it (which never ends well), I decided to solve it in a simple and a smart way. I wanted something that checks all these boxes: ✔️ Quick to make ✔️ No...

Hey Reader, Roses are red.Violets are blue.If dinner feels stressful…I prepared something for you... Valentine’s Day has a funny way of sneaking up on us, doesn’t it? One minute you are packing lunch and answering emails… the next you realize something you may need to plan something special for Valentine's Day. But here’s the thing. Special doesn’t have to mean complicated. Definitely, it doesn’t have to mean a fancy restaurant reservation, complicated ingredients, or hours in the kitchen...

Hey Reader, I thought we were done with winter. Truly. I had already started thinking about warmer days, longer walks, and not needing five layers just to step outside. And then this week happened...Temperatures remained below zero (dropping even more) and even a quick trip outside made me want to rush back in and shut the door behind me. I try to remain optimistic and enthusiastic... but sometimes, it takes extra effort to get back. On days like this, I notice how much I crave simple...

Hey Reader, If there is one thing I feel very confident about, it is this: Every home needs few quick and easy dinner ideas, at any time. Because no matter how organized you try to be, life always happens.Days are busy, evenings too short to handle it all, kids are hungry… and suddenly dinner feels like one more big thing to figure out. That is exactly why simple 30-minute meals matter so much. They save the day when you want something warm and homemade, but you do not have the time or energy...

Hello Reader, Let me introduce you to my favourite kitchen pal, the one that never talks back, never causes drama, and always shows up ready to help. I am talking about my Dutch oven. I still remember the day I finally brought one home. I set it on the counter, admired the colour, because yes, they are not just incredibly helpful, but also so pretty! This pot changed how I cook and how I feel in the kitchen. Cooking one-pot meals becomes a dream. You add everything in, pop on the lid, and let...

Hey Reader, Quick check-in after the holiday season. This week felt surprisingly busy. Not dramatic-busy, bust the kind where dinner sneaks up on you every single night. One night I almost ordered takeout (not happening too often in my house), but then I remembered that I already have something cooked that could easily turn into another meal with almost zero effort. And honestly, that felt like a small (but amazing) win ⭐️ Not because the food was fancy, but because I didn’t have to think too...

Hey Reader, And just like that… we are here again.The last day... The final hours... The quiet pause before a brand-new year ⏰ This moment always makes me slow down - and reflect.
