Homemade is Best

ikea baking book carl kleiner1 Homemade is Best

Ikea is one of my favourite shops in the whole world. I’m not ashamed to admit it and Si teases me about it all the time. When we moved to Cape Town and I realised we weren’t going to be able to stock the flat with things that had names like skårpt, klunsa and ribba I was sad!

However, to make up for my lack of Ikea over the last 2 years, I decided I’ll just have to buy their new cookbook Hembakat är Bäst (Homemade is Best). How awesome does it look!

Produced by ad agency Forsman & Bodenfors, photographed by Carl Kleiner and styled by Evelina Bratell, the beautiful images make me want to eat everything – including the ingredients before they’ve been cooked! Minimal cooking. I like.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the BFG, Royal Mail has launched a collection of Roald Dahl stamps, illustrated by his long time friend and collaborator Quentin Blake.

These stories remind me so much of my childhood and I read and loved them all.

All the collections are available to buy on the Royal Mail online shop.

I love Australian label Country Road. I used to have one of their bags when I was 7!

The best thing is that they’re still around, they still make beautiful products and they also have stores in Cape Town.

This Slub Weave Tote would be perfect for a beachy weekend getaway.
