Go to Sunday Stamps to enjoy more F- stamps today!
A healthy and colorful post today!
ReplyDeleteWe can deny it is colourful! I'm longing for the summer fruits :)
DeleteSome lovely bright stamps today, the French fruit tree is fun
ReplyDeleteI don't know where the idea came from (a fruit tree for Stamp Day?), but the stamp is fun, I like it.
DeletePerhaps it represents variety?
DeleteIt could be. Anyway, the stamp is small, but really nice.
DeleteAn appetising selection. Love the abundant tree.
ReplyDeleteIt seems you are not alone :)
DeleteThat glorious French tree!!! Great collection of fruits!
ReplyDeleteThat stamp is the winner of the post today :)
Delete"Sprawling cranberry" (abbreviated as "cranberry"), in Russian–language journalism, is a common metaphor for fiction, false stereotypes and ideas about something, as well as works based on such information. In a broad sense, it is a negative characteristic of any low–quality works (literature, cinema, music, television). A similar expression, à l'ombre d'une klukva ("under the shadow of cranberries"), was found in 1871 by M. N. Katkov as a sarcastic response to errors in an article about Moscow published by the French weekly L'Illustration. It became widespread in the early 20th century, including thanks to the parody play by B. F. Geyer "The Love of a Russian Cossack. A sensational French drama with murder and expropriation from the lives of real Russian farmers in one act with an introduction" (1910). It is often mistakenly attributed to A. Dumas, the father. However, there is no such image in his book "Journey through Russia" (1858), although there are other inaccuracies and errors in the description of Russian life.
ReplyDeleteOh, very interesting!
DeleteCranberries don't have those connotations around here, I think.
The teen boy looks less than enthused to have an apple! I actually like the kidney bean one best.
ReplyDeleteThe kid would probably prefer to eat a donut. Not a very convincing design!
DeleteWe can get most fruits year round now, but they are not the same as fresh fruits picked that day. The all inclusive tree is definitely a winner!
ReplyDeleteImagine a real tree like that!
