It’s so hot in Italy these days that it’s sweltering even on the top of our little hill under lots of green trees. I think about the various places I would like to explore, the friends I want to see, but the only place I feel inspired to go is the frozen section at the grocery store.
And that’s where I went yesterday, where I found such glorious local peaches that today I am making this bruschetta for lunch… again. It’s a favorite. This and variations there of.
My brother has a really happy and lush plant of basil growing in a pot just outside, so I will be using that instead of thyme. But then, peaches and basil are a match made in heaven!
It’s a recipe, non-recipe. You can see it on the blog, but it’s so easy it’s really a list of ingredients put together:
🟠 slices of good quality crusty bread, grilled or toasted (no garlic!)
🟡 spread that with some fresh ricotta or even some burrata cream (the filling inside burrata)
🟠 top that with one or two slices of prosciutto or speck (the smoked version of prosciutto)
🟡 top that with slices of grilled peaches
🟠 a little drizzle of balsamic reduction
🟡 a sprinkling of fresh basil or fresh thyme
A little chilled Prosecco and we can toast to perfect temperate weather all year round!
Happy Monday!

Happy Birthday to my gorgeous Mum! 83 and counting! ❤️
So grateful she is still with us, especially after the scare she gave us a year ago.
This is a portrait (of a series) I did a few years ago with one of her beloved gowns. Definitely a princess, don’t you think? ❤️
She is saying you should go and treat yourselves to some cake, or better yet, her favorite dessert: Panna Cotta!
xoxo

This beautiful Habedasher’s Pantry was inspired by a local butcher shop in the North Downs, UK.
It is part of a multi space project by the talented team at deVOL Kitchens, which includes a kitchen with a stunning island by Officine Gullo, as well as a coffee/tea station and a whole boot room (mud room).
Swipe the images to take a peek, but more images and full descriptive story can be found on the blog. See links in profile @lifeoutofbounds under “latest post”, or if you prefer, just comment KITCHEN below and I will be happy to message you the link directly.
Take a peek and let me know what you think.

The Gravenstein Apple Fair is the first event I attended during my very first visit to California. I was 18 at the time and an exchange student, staying with a family in Marin County who became some of my very best lifelong friends.
🍎
Well, if you are in the area, the fair is coming up again in a few days, and will take place on the weekend of August 9th & 10th at Ragle Ranch in Sebastopol, Sonoma County, California.
Lots of apples, also in pies, lots of fun arts and crafts vendors, good food, music, and - the longest line of all is for the apple fritters!!
🍏
If you would like a preview, I have a photo rich blog post on my website. You can find it at the link in profile.
It’s delightful fun, but I won’t be able to make it this year (being on the other side of the planet and all 🤪). So do let me know if you go.
xoxo

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my smiley Tyler!
Cody was unique, too, with very many special traits and quirks - among which understanding everything I said, and wanting to have the last word.
Oh, but Tyler…. he was one of a kind! My happy, smiley, hilarious puppy-forever, smarty-pants, glued-to-me-always Tyler.
There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t miss my Boys.
🐶🐶
