From my table to yours…
Hi, I’m Brita, owner of With Flour in Your Hair. I am a North Shore, Massachusetts-based chef, photographer, and recipe developer. I live for the creative chaos in life and finding the unique moments that feel natural and organic. I am passionate about balanced nutrition, sustainable living, and the importance of food education over fads and diets.
Growing up in the Finger Lakes of New York and raised in California, I came from a Danish immigrant mother, two Italian immigrant grandmothers, and a father who believed that the kitchen was where you should be free to play and express yourself fully. This small fact was and still is character and career-defining for me. It is the push and pull of my existence and what informs so much of what I do and how I experience the world.
With Flour in Her Hair is where all of those influences come together—at the table, in the kitchen, and in the community.
Let’s work together!
I’m available for catering, specialty bakes, photography, recipe development, and food writing. Reach out with any questions.
