Blossom

Just a bit early. Our Thanksgiving cactus (yes, it’s different from a Christmas cactus) just blossomed. Last year we had our first blossom in early November. Anyway, with all of our recent rainy days, I thought I’d share a nice flower shot to brighten the day.

Happy SUNday!

In a flash!

It’s a Thanksgiving cactus, which bloomed this past Thanksgiving and now again this past week. We also have a Christmas cactus that blooms every Christmas, like clockwork. I’ve never seen it bloom again this time of year.

I wanted to use a flash to emphasize the blossom’s stark beauty.

Teac A-4300SX

My Teac A-4300SX reel-to-reel stereo tape recorder/player.

I purchased it at the Navy Exchange in Japan in 1977.
It works and sounds amazing after all of these decades. It’s available in my Etsy shop and on eBay.
