Nutmeg
Sorry I have been soooo truant. It's because I'm dealing with my Big Baby, (extended entry to follow).
In any case, here's a photo from my new camera, which sometimes gives me a good closeup. I still don't know why.
This item is a genuine nutmeg, plucked from a tree in the West Indies , and smuggled in especially for me, many years ago, by a benefactor. The beige case was once bright red . In my environment, it rests on some once-scented beach glass. Frankly, I simply thought it was pretty, but I just found out that it is a mild hallucinogen, and is said to relieve pain if carried in the pocket. We should give it a whirl. Nutmeg is also a popular pet name . I am trying to bring a new eye to the stuff I see all the time, as I practice with my Olympus .
Photo note: The actual nutmeg is slightly smaller than a walnut.
