Hi, I’m Karolina

– a mother of two, a former architect, and a passionate home cook living on a farmhouse in Northern Germany.

Here, surrounded by chickens, wildflowers, and salty coastal winds, I rediscover the flavors of my heritage – and bring them to life in a way that fits modern, everyday life.

On this blog, I share the kind of food I grew up with: simple, hearty, traditional dishes that have been passed down through generations – from Blackforest Cherry Cake to Sunday Rouladen. But this isn’t just about nostalgia. It’s about making time-honored recipes approachable again – with clear instructions, beautiful photography, and a touch of story behind each dish.

Whether you have German roots, a love for European cooking, or just want to bring something warm and real to your kitchen – I’m so glad you’re here.
