Sunday Stamps: Food

This week's theme for Sunday Stamps is food.  I am showing here a stamp featured years ago on my blog.  Not of food exactly, but of the raw ingredients.

The coconut, and groundnuts or peanuts.

Sunday Stamps: Geology

It's a stressful time right now in the USA,with corona virus everywhere it seems, and the peak of sickness still a week or two away.

To get away from this I looked in my computer files and found a bunch of scans of mineral stamps.  I'll share just two from Kenya.

Amethyst, in natural crystal form and polished as a gem, and

tourmaline, in a rock and also as a gem.  Amethyst is the purple form of quartz, and tourmaline is a complex silicate with boron and beryllium in its structure.

Sunday Stamps #53

Theme for this week: Food. The raw materials (fruits, vegetables, grains etc.) or the finished products. What were you able to find?

I have: some stamps from Kenya, with the coconut, and groundnuts, which are also known as peanuts.

These stamps came from a student, who sent a postcard to our department when she was in Kenya on a safari.  Someday I may go on safari too!
Please share your stamps and visit some other blogs and enjoy Sunday Stamps.
