5 QUESTIONS: JENNIFER SARKILAHTI / ODETTE
{Jeweler, Brooklyn, New York}
Jennifer's blog
Jennifers jewelry (some of my favorite pieces, I get compliments every time I wear them)
all photos from Jennifer Sarkilahti.
1. What is your favorite thing to make
for breakfast?
I love toast! Topped with anything really
but lately I like having it with avocado, a squeeze of lemon, sea salt, and red
pepper flakes. Or with ricotta and fresh figs when they're in season.
I often have some variation of berries
and plain yogurt, drizzled with honey or agave. I just tried Morris Kitchen's
new preserved lemon syrup on yogurt with blackberries. It was delicious.

2. What is your favorite thing to order
when you go out to breakfast?
I haven't mastered poached eggs so I like
to order them when I go out.
3. Do you have a favorite local spot?
Diner is my go-to brunch spot. Their menu
is seasonal and ever-changing and I generally love anything they dish up. I
also enjoy Vinegar Hill House when I'm up for a trek. Five Leaves is near my
studio, so I breakfast there on occasion (but never weekend brunch- too
crowded)!
4. What is your favorite morning ritual?
Some days when I have the chance, I spend
an hour at home before I leave for the studio, drinking coffee and reading a
book. It's one of my favorite times of the day, a little peace and quiet before
the day's busy schedule.
5. coffee or tea?
Coffee in the morning and tea in the
afternoon. My friend Helen turned me on to PG Tips, a strong British tea that's
best with sugar and a drop of milk and we've been having afternoon tea time at
the studio lately.

Lovely interview...may I ask where the mug is from?
ok, i am a newbie on the blogger world and i like this idea of answering questions....right now my favorite breakfast is nutella and rice cakes. when i actually have to make breakfast its oatmeal with some peanut butter and craisins in it. i honestly don't go out for breakfast, i am not awake enough to do that. my favorite local spot is au bon pan. my morning ritual consist of falling out of bed and pulling on the nearest pants. the end
Lovely post and gorgeous photos and jewellery!

wow, her name sounds very finnish. Sarkilahti is a finnish word, this left me wondering if she has any relations to my tiny home country :D
