The Little Book of Fika: The Uplifting Daily Ritual of the Swedish Coffee Break

By Lynda Balslev

A little book on the Swedish tradition of fika--the twice-daily coffee break--including facts, quotes, tips, and 20 sweet and savory recipes.

As the Danish concept of hygge has caught on around the globe, so has lagom, its Swedish counterpart. An essential part of the lagom lifestyle, fika is the simple art of taking a break--sometimes twice a day--to enjoy a warm beverage and sweet treat with friends, creating a mindful and stress-relieving pause in your day.

This delightful gift book offers an introduction to the fika tradition with wisdom and recipes to help you establish your own practice and rituals.
