Part of the joy of my garlic harvest each year, after they have been cleaned, is the braiding. It is a beautiful and very effective way to store the garlic which hung in a cool place out of sun light can be used typically for up to a year.
On Jon Stewart Samantha Bee and Rob Riggle point out how amazing it can be that there are any "Undecided Voters" at this point. This foto may explain it.

Shangilia Mtoto Wa Africa - Rejoice Child of Africa
This past weekend I had the pleasure of visiting Shangilia and meeting some of the children who live there. Located just outside of Nairobi in the sprawling Kangemi slum, Shangilia was founded in 1994 by the late Kenyan actress Anne Wanjugu as an organization dedicated to educating and empowering street children, that they might become part of a community and as a result have a chance at a better life.
The central message of Shangilia remains that street children who have been empowered can excel and contribute meaningfully to society.

This week's theme was Stranded. One of the defintions for Strand was :
"one of a number of fibers, threads, or yarns that are plaited or twisted together to form a rope, cord, or the like"
So I just braided one strand of hair.
I (kind of) broke my kit lens and I could only manual focus...but I am starting to feel more like a photographer though :)
Now that I look at this photo I realize I am in such an awkward pose....
