As you can see, Papa Legba resides at the gate. At the beginning of any Vodou dance, you will note the various salutations to the Lwa Legba. During ceremonies, the entrance to the peristyle will be saluted during Legba’s salutes. This is a way to honor the “home” of this Lwa, the gate. Living at the gate, Legba controls the entrance and departure of the Lwa into and out of the temple. Without his permission, no Lwa will be able to enter the peristyle and addressing the Lwa will go in vain. Legba is the master of doors, gateways, and highways. Points of intersection are also under his control.

$2760Tonmtonm is a recylce Hand painted wood earrings with square copper & bronze spiral.
Meaning of Tonmtonm
“Tonmtonm is a Haitian dish that is made with mashed breadfruit as the main ingredient. Sometimes, it is combined with okra or sweet potatoes. It is traditionally made in a large, deep mortar with a long pestle. Some believe that the name of the dish comes from the sound that the large pestle produces when it is stamped in the mortar. When tonmtonm is mashed, it is then gathered, shaped into a ball, and served as an accompaniment to kalalou gonbo.”

Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo y Calderón was born on 6 July 1907 in Coyoacán, a village on the outskirts of Mexico City and died on july 13, 1954.
Frida Kahlo was a Mexican painter known for her many portraits, self-portraits, and works inspired by the nature and artifacts of Mexico.
.
She painted real women and real experiences.
Frida deviated from the traditional depiction of female beauty in art and instead chose to paint raw and honest experiences that so many women face. Her subject matter included abortion, miscarriage, birth and breastfeeding, among other things, often seen as taboo and like many female experiences altogether ignored.
Frida smoked, boxed, won tequila challenges against men, and dressed like a man in a family portrait, contrasting to her mother and sisters who wore dresses. She refused to alter her ‘masculine’ features, including her mono-brow and faint moustache, and actually exaggerated these features in her self portraits. -

À la bataille de Crête-à-Pierrot (4 mars-24 mars 1802), Marie Jeanne combat en uniforme considéré a l’époque comme un uniforme masculin, debout le long des remparts du fort, portant à la fois un fusil et une épée.
