Description

While the Danish concept of hygge as caught on around the globe, so has lagom-its Swedish counterpart. An essential part of the lagom lifestyle, fika is the simple art of taking a break-sometimes twice a day-to enjoy a warm beverage and sweet treat with friends. This delightful gift book offers an introduction to the tradition along with recipes to help you establish your own fika practice.
