NEW APRIL FREE CALENDAR WALLPAPER FOR YOUR DEVICES
A burst of Lilac to celebrate what I feel is the true start of the new year.
I photographed this Lilac (and many other wonderful flowers) in a beautiful Napa garden, where I had the privilege to live for a few months in what feels like last week, but was in fact already a few years ago.
Thank goodness nature (and photos) exist outside the human construct of time.
Just go to the links in my profile @lifeoutofbounds to download the wallpaper as my gift to you.
Happy April everyone!

Yesterday I baked a batch of these….
I don’t think there will be any left by the end of today.
(It’s the dogs, of course, not us 😜)
They are Margheritine di Stresa (Little Daisies from Stresa), my favorite cookie. Deceptively simple, but melt-in-your-mouth bites of heaven. 🌸
Ok, I need another cup of tea now. Earl Grey, of course

🌸 BLOOMING SEASON IN CALIFORNIA | What, Where and Approximately When 🌸
Free PDF e-book
As it happens, after the blog post was published, I felt that all the information belonged into a downloadable PDF e-book that people could just have with them for reference. We are only at the start of the season after all. So I designed it right away and here it is!
I have added as much information and links as I could muster; about wildflowers yes, but also other popular blooms like: lilacs, wisteria, roses, lavender, sunflowers and marigolds...
If you are interested, you can find it at the link in my profile @lifeoutofbounds
I hope you will enjoy, and find it helpful in your springtime nature explorations.
xoxo
