Have you heard of fika before? Basically, it's a S Have you heard of fika before? Basically, it's a Swedish institution — a coffee break that focuses on slowing down and enjoying time with friends (or family). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I first heard of this concept a few weeks ago, even though I have visited Sweden where I ate my weight in delicious pastries. Soon after learning about fika, I stumbled upon @doriegreenspan and then her Baking with Dorie cookbook. Once I saw Dorie's recipe for Swedish Fika Cake, I knew I had to make one!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Needless to say, the cake is absolutely delicious and the cookbook is gorgeous. If you love sweets as much as I do, you're going to want to get your own cookbook and use it as an excuse to have many fika breaks of your own 😂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I have a blog post with more information about how to fika and a mini-review of Dorie's cookbook, plus information on how to get your own copy.

You won't regret it!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Head to the link in my bio → Books Featured on Instagram to get more information!
In my world, fall is for baking with apples and re In my world, fall is for baking with apples and reading cozy contemporary romances!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My family and I picked a couple of bushels of apples at a local orchard and I have been on the hunt for recipes to use them. I saw this apple dumpling pull-apart bread on the Fall Baking edition of @tasteofhome and knew I had to make it immediately. Let me tell you, it is delicious and I could eat the cider cream cheese glaze by the spoonful 😋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Another thing I could eat with a spoon is Well Matched by @jendelucawrites. I enjoyed Mitch and April's story of fake dating set amongst the backdrop of the Renaissance Faire so much. It was a delightful way to spend an afternoon, all snuggled up under blankets and eating sweet treats while reading this sweet story.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For more information or to pick up a copy of Well Matched, click the link in my bio → Books Featured on Instagram.
