27 Oct Spelt & Blueberry Buns
Okay, so the last time I posted anything here was in January. That’s a long time. And a lot of changes have happened in my life since then. The most important one is that I moved to Milan. I know! It’s crazy and I still can’t really believe it. Sometime in the beginning of spring I started studying Italian for fun and one thing led to another and eventually I found myself moving to Milan. Well, there were more steps involved of course but it all unfolded in a magical way. So now I’m spending my days in school studying Italian and my afternoons drinking cappuccinos and eating gelato. A few weeks ago however I made a short visit back home to Stockholm and me and my dad made a trip to the forest to gather mushrooms. And to my surprise I found so many blueberries as well, in October! So when I came back home I couldn’t resist making spelt and blueberry buns. Because it’s like the tastiest thing in the world.
To be honest I’ve been feeling guilty for not posting here for such a long time. And I’ve been really confused what to do with this space. What do I want to post? Do I even enjoy blogging? Why am I blogging? Why do I even keep the blog when I’m not even posting? I guess I’ve just been really low on inspiration and my last two years has been a bit of a quarter life crisis. But when I made these buns, I really felt like posting them here on the blog because they’re too good not to share with the world. Who knows when I’ll post next time or what I’ll post, but it doesn’t matter. This is a place I want to come to when I feel inspired and when I have something to share. It’s not a place where I force things or feel guilty. So, who knows what the future looks like? Guess we’ll just have to wait and see. 😉
Meanwhile, why don’t you make some blueberry buns and enjoy the autumn. Red and yellow leaves, hot chocolate and scarves. Yes please!

Posted at 18:16h, 27 OctoberHi Thea don”t ever fee guilty for not posting. I love the collection of recipes and photography on your site. I make the bread regularly and always look at the recipe as I can never remember it. I enjoy looking at your site every time. I would feel heartbroken if you took it down. It’s an achievement getting any project off the ground, it doesn’t matter that you don’t have time for it now. It helped me come to terms with not being able to eat gluten. Thanks

Posted at 14:22h, 28 JanuaryHi Thea. I love your blog, your story, your zest for life! I’m curious….how did you developers into such an expert backer at such a young age?
I love the thought of these blueberry buns! How well do you think they will adapt to a gluten free sourdough version?
All the best,
Carla
