Remember when we were doing quest for our fairy magic and we had to say "Hey mimi, what's for dinner"?

Here is what a Mimi is:

God from Australian Aborigine Mythology. The MIMI are very thin spindly little spirits that live in crevices. The MIMI love nothing better than chasing emus, singing and dancing as they go. They are also fond of scratching stick figure portraits on rocks to mystify archeologists.

And we asking MIMI, what's for dinner? Glad I'm not an emu

Lol would have never known this.

Aboriginal people of western Arnhem Land say that their Mimi rock pictures were painted not by humans but by the Mimi spirits. The drawings, usually in red ochre, show elegant, graceful stick-like human figures in action - fighting, running, dancing, leaping and hunting.

The Mimi live in the nooks and crannies of the rocky landscape, coming out at night. They are said to be so thin and frail that they can emerge from their hiding places only when there is no wind, otherwise they would be blown away. The Mimi not only created these lively self-portraits, but also are the Dreaming ancestors who taught people to paint, hunt, dance and compose songs.
