Jasmine's class has been studying Kwanza, Christmas and Hahnukka. She has made more crafts this year than I have made in my entire lifetime! This photo is of the mkeka- a straw mat that represents a firm foundation. The muhindi (harvested corn) and mazeo (harvested fruits and vegetables) are placed on the mat. There is also a kwanza necklace now on our tree, which by the way is a Norfolk Pine which is supposed to look droopy and scraggly! Today was also "recipe day". Jasmine now wants to make "ambrosia" on Christmas. I think we can arrange that!
