#MacroMondays #stick
this one is probably the best macro one, but i like the "old stick in the mud" the best, even if it isn't very appealing ~grin~ wonder if someone else did that?? am betting there are a lot of snowmen with stick arms.
I see a toy with a smiling face with a Santa Fe decal stuck to its teeth just as I saw my electric trains when my mother gave them to me, but it's actually now a working Lionel Santa Fe Double Diesel Train Set 027 from 1956 and a collector's item.
I had a whole bunch of these nuts (with matching bolts) hanging around. Finally got to make some use of them!

This weeks theme is: Reel
This reel of film is from my Father-in-laws Father. He was a prolific photographer also and took many photos on the Praktica that I now own. I have boxes and boxes of slide film that need to be scanned.

I had three different photos for this challenge. One was speckled chicken feathers and one was speckled rust. In the end I went with sparkly speckles because it's a dull gray day and who couldn't use a little sparkle on a day like that? :)
«L'amore è per definizione un dono non meritato; anzi, l'essere amati senza merito è la prova del vero amore [...] Quanto è più bello sentirsi dire: sono pazza di te sebbene tu non sia né intelligente né onesto, sebbene tu sia bugiardo, egoista e mascalzone!».
Milan Kundera, “La lentezza”
the macromondays' theme for today, 12/17, is #safety devices--
this is a sewing ripper with its cover
there are 8 possibilities today-- i think my favorites are the simplicity of faux tea light and the sparkle of golden hasp clasp. think i'll have a bit of coffee while i cogitate. the macromonday album of postings and possibilities is here:
A frozen cube of ginger.......ginger (I am told) can reduce inflammation, improve blood circulation, alleviate nausea, assist digestion and other things. I don't necessarily drink ginger tea for those reasons -I just like a ginger and honey drink. The way I make it is to peel the ginger and whiz it in a blender with water so that it it's 'grated'. Strain it and fill 1 in square ice cube trays with the grated ginger. Freeze the trays and once frozen bag them up. Then, when I want a drink it 's easy to take a cube from the freezer - drop it in the cup infuser and pour over boiling water. The tumbler here is 7cm (2 3/4 ins) in diameter.
This is a detail of a self built steamtrain (le belge 1835) by my husband. (scale 1/20)
You can see also the hand of a little doll.
