An English tale tells of a greedy baker's daughter who only used a tiny bit of dough when baking for the poor. The bread grew into a huge loaf! She let out a 'Hoo Hoo' in surprise and was turned into an owl as a warning to others to be generous to the poor. #FolkloreThursday
Memory is an important component of storytelling. In Greek mythology, Mnemosyne was the titan goddess of memory and mother of the nine muses, fathered by Zeus. It is from her name we get the word mnemonic, which is a memory aid.

There’s folklore around today that says if it’s dry and mild then winter isn’t done with us yet - the Cailleach is out collecting more wood for her fire. If it’s wet she can’t - so spring is really on the way. It’s raining out my window 🙌🏻 Brigid can take over any time she likes
Vasilisa - inspired by the Russian folktale, and something about a woman's intuition 🧠💅❤️🔥 #MythologyMonday #Folklore

I couldn’t imagine this wacky color title page from chapter 172 would ever make any actual reference later with rabbits, other than the Japanese folklore. But Chelsea tells us where they are on the moon by referencing the bunny shapes. (Story from https://t.co/RyoCpuRdPO)
