Biscuits Salami with Pistachio and Rum

The Christmas of 2020—right in the heart of the pandemic—brought unexpected joy in the form of a humble dessert: biscuit salami. I gave it a twist, adding crunchy pistachios, a splash of rum, and rich dark chocolate. Somewhere along the way, I had learned to embrace the good things in life, and this little treat became one of them.

Growing up, my mother would prepare the classic version—just cocoa, milk, and biscuits. Simple, comforting, and always a hit in our home. Biscuit salami, or salame di cioccolato, is a traditional Italian no-bake dessert made with crushed biscuits, cocoa, butter, and often nuts or liqueur. Easy to make, endlessly adaptable, and perfect for sharing—especially during times when comfort is needed most.

Turning Tides: A Sunglass Story That Cleans the Ocean

This year carved itself into memory. The coronavirus pandemic has reshaped our daily lives into a surreal new normal, where hand sanitizer reigns, hugs are suspicious, and working from home has become either a blessing or a distant memory. In my case, due to economic shifts, my job was no longer deemed essential. It stung—at first. Read more

Welcome to the Human Library, a place where real-life stories are the pages, and conversations are the chapters. Here, you can ‘check out’ a person as your book, someone with a unique story to share — stories you’d never normally have access to, yet ones that are deeply important. Read more

Spinach And Salmon Tart

How about salmon? Yes, that pink, silky superstar of the sea. It’s not just popular, it’s practically a health hero. As an oily fish, salmon packs a punch with high-quality protein, loads of omega-3 fatty acids, and a serious dose of vitamin D. Translation? You’re giving your body nutrients that may lower the risk of heart disease and even certain cancers. Pretty powerful for a fish, right?

And then there’s smoked salmon—delicate, rich, and just a bit luxurious. Usually cured and either hot- or cold-smoked, it’s the kind of treat that makes brunch feel fancy and dinner effortlessly gourmet. No wonder it’s considered a delicacy (yes, your taste is impeccable). Read more

5 Fascinating Facts About The Little Prince You Probably Didn’t Know

On average, I read about 50 books a year. That sounds like a lot—until you do the math. If I were to live another 42 years (which is exactly how old I am now), that means I have time for just 2,100 more books in this lifetime. That number? It gives me instant literary anxiety. The kind where you start second-guessing every page you turn.

Because here’s the thing: when you realise your reading life is, in fact, finite, you start asking tough questions. Like: Should I keep reading this book that hasn’t sparked anything in me after the first 30 pages? Or do I gently close it, thank it for its time, and move on to another—one that might actually teach me something real? Read more
