Can you help us help a colleague identify this item?
All we know is that it's from the Conception Bay South area in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Any guesses?🤔

I will be posting a few photos from my recent trip to Japan and South Korea! I feel very lucky to have been able to go and experience such a lovely season. Below is a photo of the Moon pine tree in Ueno Park (Tokyo), Osaka Castle (Osaka), and Mount Fuji from the Shinkansen!

For today’s #MissusMonday we’re sharing an Inuktitut version of the toe-counting rhyme, This Little Piggy, from M. Tuglavina of Makkovik.
Can you help us give M. Tuglavina her first name?

One of my favourite things I like to photograph is tree bark! I love all of the different textures you can find in nature.

For today’s #MissusMonday we’re sharing a folk remedy for warts from Mrs. Mackey of St. Brendan’s.
What’s interesting about this remedy is that, usually, a dog eats the pork, but in this case, it’s a cat!
And as always, can you help us give Mrs. Mackey her first name?

For today’s #MissusMonday we’re sharing the belief that if you’re bad to your mother, your hand will stick out of the grave when you die.
This is likely a reference to the folktale, “The Willful Child”, collected by the Brothers Grimm.
