Here a “tunera” (#pricklypearcactus in Spanish of the #CanaryIslands) from #BoxingDay’s #Walk in #tilosdemoya. I took this picture to show my husband the #cochineal parasitising the pads of the cactus. Once an important part of the #CanarianEconomy, cochineal was collected to extract the red dye #carmine which is used in cosmetics, drugs or foods. It is for example used to colour the #Cubanitos, a biscuit produced in Gran Canaria by Galletas Bandama https://www.galletasbandama.com/productos/cubanitos/ #history

wow, such a disgusting tradition now, it's time these hunts were banned in totality, and not allowed loopholes through which to drive their horses and Chelsea Tractors

@meraord Jag spelar på fotboll en gång om året och det är på #boxingday - förr om åren brukade det alltid vara full omgång i Premier League men nu är det som vilken omgång som helst. Och nej, det gick inte särskilt bra den här gången heller...

Cool. For me, it was hot chocolate in the courtyard and then a mini carvery.

Putting together the shipment going out tomorrow morning. What better to do on #BoxingDay?
My Black December runs through the end of, uh, December, in case you haven't ordered a giclée print or watercolor original yet. Head on over to http://gorney.studio
If you already bought a print, apologies for any delay. Have been a bit overwhelmed (press checks at The Great Highway, trips to the #USPS, and racing to finish new commissions for Xmas. You'll have your signed piece in just a few days!

On this day in 1776, George Washington crossed the ice-clogged Delaware River to attack Hessian forces in Trenton, #NewJersey.🫠

I think I did #BoxingDay correctly this year. Stayed in pjs and didn't buy a thing
@godpod Hmmm, I'm rarely asked that question!
Grateful for what I have and with whom I share it but wishing we could purge and just move away from here. #BoxingDay
