African Jumping Broom

Posted on: 05/18/2006 09:41 AM

Maybe your minister can say it after you jump your broom:

Dark an'stormy may come de wedder;
Let none but Him dat makes de thunder,
Put dis he-male and she-male asunder.
Be good, go'long, an'keep up yo'name.
De broomstick's jumped, de worl's not wide.
She's now yo'own. Salute yo'bride!

This allegedly was said by slaves when they simply jumped their broom and announced their union.

Elegant events begin with Vibride. SHOP THE STORE!

Hi Hampton_S Don't know if you are still looking or where you are from(I am new to the site and still finding my way)but I am in nj and I went to a place called McGowans. it is a fabric store in Elizabeth. My fh and I purchased the double broom for $5 and was then able to get the fabric and supplies there. Can I please tell you in all we spent $20 and the broom is Beautiful!!! Every where else they were so much more expensive 4 so much less. You can also go to this place in Newark called Mullers. It is a florist warehouse but they have all things 4 amost occasions

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME; ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD. WHEN IN DOUBT, PRAY
