((”Oh, and she tells everyone about her awesome Kwanzaa vacation coming up! “))
_______________________
Heard this on Beck this morning, looks true:
http://www.life123.com/holidays/kwanzaa/Kwanzaa-traditions/guide-to-kwanzaa-traditions.shtml

“The word “Kwanzaa” comes from “matunda ya kwanza,” which is a Swahili term for “first fruits.” The extra “a” in “kwanzaa” came about during an early Kwanzaa celebration in which seven children each wanted to represent a letter in the word, and an extra “a” was added to “kwanza” to make sure all the children were included.”

Tell her you’ll be celebrating the true “mantunda ya kwanza” and won’t need an extra ‘a’....she’s fired.

I could not care less about kwanzaa. At the present time I do not know anything about it and am not interested in learning.
