It’s that time of the month already!
Yep, time for the new June Calendar Wallpaper!
This time it’s featuring freshly picked strawberries 🍓 from my friend Adima’s garden back in Italy.
The images just called to me, so I hope you will enjoy it, too.
As always, the calendar wallpaper is available (for laptop/desktop, iPad/tablet, iPhone/smartphone) as a free download through the links in my profile @lifeoutofbounds
Blessings, and Happy June everyone! 🍓❤️🍓

I honestly did not feel I could really share about Mother’s Day before, given that my Mum floated out of her body exactly on that day (in Italy), but I could not let May go by without sharing this nod to motherhood.
These are a selection of images from the maternity shoots I did around O’ahu a few years ago.
These beautiful mothers are Lara, Marsee, Jackie and Adrieanne.
Locations:
- a private Lohi (taro plantation) in Hale’iwa, North Shore of O’ahu (I hope it survived the recent deluge)
- Nu’uanu Valley Park, in Honolulu (behind Queen Emma Summer Palace)
- Pua’ena Point Beach Park, to the right of Hale’iwa Beach, North Shore of O’ahu
- Portlock Beach, a tiny little beach in the Hawai’i Kai area of Honolulu
If you like to view more images from these shoots, go to the profile and scroll down the links till you see: HAPAI | The Beauty of Maternity in Hawai’i, and click on that.
Love & blessings,
M

After several delays (for reasons most of you already know), I am finally excited to announce my Curated Recipes project!
These are recipes which I have developed and perfected over the years: mostly new ones (to you), some revamped from my restaurant years, and a few already published on my website and also revamped.
I am offering them as separate recipes (available in both English and Italian) so you can purchase just the ones you want. They come in downloadable PDF format so you will be able to save them on your devices and have them with you wherever you go.
To keep things simple, I have set up shop on a secure external platform called Buy Me A Coffee. Purchasing is easy and affordable, as prices start at $3.50 (USD).
I currently have 4 recipes already available for purchase with more to come by and by.
What you will find in each beautifully designed PDF:
- Exact recipes (in grams) that are fine tuned and perfected
- Recipe-specific tips for optimal results
- Overall baking tips
- Process images as needed
- Extra version(s) when available
- Live Amazon links to special ingredients and utensils
If you are a baker, I trust you will enjoy this new project of mine. If you are not a baker, maybe you know someone who is and it would be wonderful if you were to share this post with them. You could also purchase a recipe as a gift and then ask them to bake it for you!
And fear not, there are still plenty of recipes available for free on the blog.

HAPPY BAKING!
