Once again blooming well on Christmas Day, these are Schlumbergera truncata 'gold charm' (left) and 'Xmas flame' (right). I got mine from Whitton Greenhouses in April 2007.


EDITED TO ADD: There have been juncos in our little backyard for the past three days. I've started feeding the birds and trying to keep an extremely annoyed Scamp indoors.

Last night last thing I noticed that the Scamp had helpfully placed -- on the living room floor under the piano next to my little USB keyboard (where I keep it when I'm not using the ASUS), and precisely where I would want to use it if I happened to be keyboarding on the living room floor -- a dead mouse. I thought about photographing it, since on one level it's such a sight gag. But then I decided it was just too gruesome. Apparently all wasn't calm last night after all. Roy did the funeral rites, involving a paper towel and a trash can.
