Some of the best things in life

Sourdough rye bread is definitely one of the best things in life!
This one is called Riga's Fine Bread in Estonia - it has sweetness to it and contains either caraway or coriander seeds. I added caraway seeds this time but both varieties are delicious.



Riga is one of my favourite cities of all time. There are so many different parts with very different architecture and ambience. Food is always great and so are the people. 

Vennaskond - an Estonian band that was hugely popular during 80s and 90s - has this song "Riga, my love" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-ZcHlPFIqE

Prata Vetra aka Brainstorm is a fantastic Latvian band that has songs in Latvian, English and Russian and they all very, very good! 

Here is one in English - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-CmEbXH90M

An other very good thing in this life is mashed strawberries with milk. I made this childhood summer staple tonight and it is as lovely as it was then.



One more very good thing in this life are flowers. I got really beautiful roses this time from our Sunday market.
