We like to be inspired.
In fact, I’d go as far as saying we need it, to stay on track, and the products that help do that are on our DAILY MANTRA (3 things each day) page ! But this page is just a place where we can just muse about stuff as we experience it, and express what gives us some joy. It’s good to keep in touch with what makes you get to really live more. Stay in touch with us here.
We’re inspired every day, by many or you, so we’ll share the stories, experiences, and quotes that resonate with us.
We love to hear, and your inspirations might just be ours too so you could end up featuring on the button below!
What makes you smile?

Maybe a 6 month holiday… twice a year ! is that what you’re thinking ?
Live simply so that others may simply live

What makes a great chef ?
This fromcooktochef journey really resonates ! A round of applause for this chef and his inspiring story.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Be thankful for what you have…

We love great food & cooking… & simplifying life.
We want to help you find the right tools to cook better. But we’re all suffering from information and salesmen overload online! So… we want to simplify and clarify it, so you can make faster and better choices.
Our daily mantra is to eat well, cook better, live more.
Do you want the same ?
