My Winter Solstice card in 1986 included portraits of my three pets--Naomi, Iris, and Winslow. We're looking out over the fields of a then-undeveloped Pennwood. #greetings #greeting #wintergreeting #solsticegreetings #holiday #winterholiday #winterholidays #Yule #ShabeYalda #DongZhi #Soyal #Saturnalia #Christmas #Hanukkah #Kwanzaa #StLucysDay #hogmanay #winter #celebration #wintercelebration #wintercelebrations #flamingo #flamingos #santahat #santahats #lawnornaments #lawnornament

👑 Kwanzaa 1 of 2
I have heard of Kwanzaa, but I never truly understood it until now. It's so beautiful.Kwanzaa is a cultural holiday for Black people and the wider African diaspora. It is not a church holiday! It runs for seven days, from December 26 to January 1.
Why? The holiday started in 1966 to celebrate African heritage, unity, and community power using 7 core principles: the Nguzo Saba.
Here are the first 4 keys to building power together:
Keys 1 to 4: Working Together
1. Umoja / Unity: We stick together and stay strong
2. Kujichagulia / Self-Choice: You choose who you are
3. Ujima / Teamwork: We help build our group and neighbourhood
4. Ujamaa / Share Money: We support our own to make shared wealth
The highest protocol is LOVE. We use these keys to build an unbreakable community.

Children are what make Christmas, or whatever Solstice Holiday one celebrates, special. Happy Christmas, Hanukkah, Hopi Soyal, Zuni Shalako, Saturnalia, Yalda, Kwanzaa, and Yule! #christmas #hanukkah #hopisoyal #zunishalako, #saturnalia, #yalda, #kwanzaa, #yule #solstice

Day 1 - Umoja (Unity)
The first day of Kwanzaa asks us to consider the concept of UNITY.
Alone you are just one person, but if you join together with others you can get many things done.
When we UNITE with others, we can make it through. Listen to today's Kwanzaa message about UNITY.

SHOW LOVE, EVEN ON A BUDGET
Money can be tight sometimes, especially in this economy, making gifts difficult to organize.
My family also has two birthdays in December, so I am no stranger to trying to scrimp and save to make sure I can show my loved ones how much I care.
While overconsumption and inflation run rampant, there seems to be a rise in people wanting to make their own gifts. Here’s a list of cheap and homemade gift ideas I turn to every year. Hopefully they also help you to spread the love this holiday season.
Needle Felting
This craft uses specifically designed notched needles to form wool into different shapes and designs. The notches tangle the wool fibres and cause them to interlock to form firm structures. This versatile craft is perfect for those on a budget.
I started needle-felting with the help of a friend over a year ago, and it has turned into a fun hobby that also helps me make fun gifts for friends.
You can find Ontario roving wool at Flying Squirrel for 15 cents per bundle. And the needles can be purchased online starting at $1.50. You can easily find free patterns online as well.
Happy felting!
Crochet and Knitting
Crocheting and knitting is part of the needlecraft family in which you use a hook to create fabric from loops of yarn. Both can be used to make anything from a blanket to a sweater.
While this is not a hobby I have participated in yet, I know plenty of people who use fibre arts for gift giving. You can purchase a ball of yarn at Flying Squirrel starting at $2.99.
Painting
Who doesn’t love a hand-painted piece of art? Check out any dollar store and stock up on paper, paint and paintbrushes without breaking the bank.
Something I like to do is called zen-tangles. To create a zen-tangle, paint a simple shape like a triangle or a square in one colour. The point is to be intentional about each line.
It can be very calm and makes for a beautiful piece of artwork. Cutting up the print and making unique cards out of them is sure to brighten up anyone’s holiday.
Baked goods
Use the holidays as a way to expand your hobbies or practice tried and true ones. For me, baking is one hobby I like to use when the holidays come rolling in.
I like baking Filipino treats for my loved ones during the holidays to show them my appreciation. Making food like puto or biko is a fun way to be creative while also putting in a lot of care into the gift. Puto, a steamed rice cake, is very inexpensive to make and requires ingredients you would already have in the pantry like flour and sugar.

"Imani (Faith)", the seventh tenet of Kwanzaa, on the 7th and final day.
(Something I imagine we could all use now.)
"To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle." "The ancient Egyptian double symbol of the ankh (life) and djed pillar (stability, endurance) serves here as a symbol of steadfastness in commitment to the Goodness, the Right, and the Beautiful in life"
