Comfort & Food For The Soul
A cosy collection of comfort food, drinks & lifestyle recipes for you, your friends & family to enjoy. The Danish often say that the art of hygge (pronounced 'hoo-ga' ) is only ever meant to be felt, not explained and that its meaning is lost in translation. Whilst no singular word can adequately define it....... cosiness, comfort, contentment, bliss, happiness, warmth, friendship, family, gratitude, appreciation of simplicity and the here & now are just some of the words which fit. Hygge is warm drinks, comfort food, cosy clothes, candles, blankets, conversation, bike rides & walks through the forest. Hygge can be tasted, seen, heard & felt – it affects all our senses. In short it’s about enjoying the simple pleasures in life. With over 60 food & drink recipes and craft ideas along with tips to hygge your life, this book is the perfect introduction to the Danish art of happiness.

Minimizes the pleasure of living a Hygge life. I have read other books on this topic and they were inspiring and helped me make small changes in my life that provide simple joy.

A good introduction to Hygge, it's fairly basic but an easy read with some useful suggestions and idea for activities and crafts, and includes food and drink recipes with common household ingredients.

One of my favs. I’ve seen some negative reviews based on the length of the book but that’s what I actually liked about it. It’s simple, but has some lovely recipes & activities in it.
