Tastes and sights of Mexico

There are so many interesting and unusual sights and tastes in Mexico. Consider the roofs - oh, not ALL of them, but once in awhile you see - grass?? If you don't have enough on your lawn, grow some on your roof! And consider the blue doorway. In the U.S. you might think it's gawdy, but here in Mexico, it's beautiful! And the tastes! Nothing better than a hot-from-the-grill tortilla with something delicious like TINGA inside (tinga is chicken and onions with a luscious sauce). MMMMM. Can't get any better than this! The jacaranda (ha-cah-ron-dah) tree is also known as the "arbol de Pascua" - the Easter tree. Why? I don't really know - maybe because it blooms at Easter? I'll see if I can find out!
