"Когато преди време написах Етюди за един пръст и през ум не ми минаваше, че един ден наново ще седна да пиша книга. Е, както казват: "Никога не казвай никога". Нещата си следваха определена логика и явно едно нещо влачи след себе си друго: първо книга, след това групата Осите. След това идеята да посвирим стари рок парчета, която пък доведе до писане на собствената музика в този стил. Покрай работата с Осите преслушах тонове със стари рок парчета и така ми хрумна идеята за настоящата книга - истории, вдъхновени от любими, леко позабравени, но оставили трайни следи в душите на моето поколение песни.

"This book isn’t only about sugar-free, allergen-free cooking and baking. It’s about sharing the recipes that I love and use all the time. Recipes that can be more flexible, to incorporate local produce or adapt to different dietary needs. Some of these recipes are family traditions or meant for special occasions, and some are much newer, but they are recipes that I come back to time after time.
