I decided to record my brothers since they were home.

The song played is "Beautyway" by Delphine Tsinajinnie.

So how is the bread on the inside ? It looks nice and crispy on the outside so is it like a tortilla or something ?

@vangard213 The bread on the inside is delicious! It's nice and soft. Yeah, it's a sister to the tortilla lol.

Hey I'm so glad you guys but up a video of a navajo hair bun (chongo?) I was wondering what kind of string you guys use.

BTW Thanks so much for the vid! I saw a girl at an intertribal with that and wanted to figure out how to do it sooooooo bad.

We used white yarn. Well in this case it used to be white lol.

This was an AWESOME video. Ya'll made me laugh. It reminds me of the good times I spent visiting my relatives on the reservation. Too many good memories from when I was little. I miss home sooo bad at times. I had a few male cousins who made delicious frybread and hot ba'h (spelling?) and I considered them pros too. I live in Texas and the frybread comes out flat here. A friend said the same thing who lives in Florida. We even hauled blue bird flour back to our homes...haha. I miss shi'ma now.

Thank you! I'm glad it made you laugh and that it brought back good memories. Your spelling of "ba'h" is as good as mine. I'd spell it the same way. Hmm, I guess the elevation out here on the rez is what makes the bread nice and fluffy. We've hauled blue bird out to my brother in Phoenix a few times too. I think it beats all the other brands of flour. Go Blue Bird! I'm sorry you're missing ni'ma, but I'm sure all the good memories you think of bring you some comfort. Take care :D
