Today is a holiday, September 16, 2008. It is Independence Day for Mexico! You thought it was May 5th, CINCO DE MAYO?? WRONG! They may celebrate that holiday in the States, but here we hardly notice that day go by! Our BIG DAY is actually September 15th, when we celebrate with a Noche Mexicana (Mexican Night). Daughter Bethie made this creative and yummy cake to take to our Noche Mexicana. It disappeared almost instantly!
After a service, we all joined in eating! That seems to be something ALL cultures enjoy! Here you see the tamales disappearing very quickly - they're in the big pan. I felt lucky to get one! And yes, they were yummy!
Jello, drinks, tinga (on the right), tostadas, chicken casserole (on the left), tamales, so many yummy choices!
I caught Reina eating! She "bawled me out", but that's OK! It was fun catching her!
