this pie shoot I styled with incredible food editor Emma Knowles and photographed by Petrina Tinslay
This Moroccan chair from my old store, and my Signature Prints cushion. And this window display I shot in Paris.
oh yes! I should bake some this weekend.
this peacock feather that comes in handy for adding a dash of vibrancy to a little vignette. and my old old books.
the wheels on Napolean(‘s) chair, a skeleton leaf and my ancient Mandolin.
beauty from the everyday
the leaf is perfect

Those cookies look amazing. I was thinking of making biscuits of some sort soon so maybe I’ll make yours! I’m making plum and cardamom cake this weekend though. Yum!

those two pics at the bottom – w/the feather and leaf – are exquisite pia, the light and the moody tones are so evocative of the Dutch Masters…wonder if it was the Amsterdam light and you capturing, in a moment, a previous time… such soul. beautiful.

Your “choc and cranberry cookies” are more than delicious! I liked them so much that I included it in our April Newsletter. It’s been in our website since February and some of our visitors have made them too. Thank you for sharing it with A World in a Pan!

oh my, annie, thank you so much! just call me martha.
PS I don’t know why in writing I say ‘oh my’ but I never say it when I speak.
PPS don’t call me martha though, i do prefer to be called pia.
PPPS Mary-Laure with all your sweet comments. The mandolin is passed down from a French relative. And the pie was delcious indeed. I am looking forward to thanking you in person for all your beautiful comments on the blog!
