Mino-Miigwechwigiizhigad

Mino-Miigwechwigiizhigad, which is an Ojibwe phrase that is often used as “Happy Thanksgiving” among the Northeastern Amerindian tribes. And yes, for the scholars out there, I could have instead used, “Ohèn:ton Karihwatéhkwen,” which is the Kanien’kéha (Mohawk dialect of the Haudenosaunee language group) phrase for “Thanksgiving Address.” However, the Ohèn:ton Karihwatéhkwen isn’t related to the American Thanksgiving holiday and is or was used quite often at the beginning of meetings throughout the year.

But, in that vein, I will give thanks to the Creator for the things that go about on the earth, especially the native beauties that do so. 😉

It’s Harvest Time, Not Christmastide!

That’s right! It’s harvest time, Thanksgiving if you will. It’s not yet Christmastide. Do not defrost Mariah Carey yet. All I want for Christmas is to not be inundated with it until at least November 28th.

Make Pumpkins Great Again

After 73 years, Linus got his wish. And, we got to live until pumpkins were great again. 😛 OK, technically, she – Maddison Fox, I think – made pumpkins great again a bit over 5 years ago.
