I know today's the 4th of May,
but I like to get ahead of myself
with Holidays.
To be honest I didn't
even know what Cinco de Mayo
was all about...history wise.
So I read up on it here
because every year
I celebrate it with
delicious Mexican food
so I figured I should
know what in the world
I'm celebrating.
And because it's a day all about
Mexico I think it only appropriate to share
one of my favorite songs by Mexican
singer Julieta Venegas.
Happy weekending and Feliz Cinco de Mayo amigos!
Indeed, here in Mexico we don´t really pay attention to this specific date. We won a battle to the french in Puebla, but five days later they returned and kicked our butts really hard, so there is really nothing to celebrate. I guess it´s only an excuse to party, don´t you think??
ReplyDeleteOh really?! That is funny that you guys don't celebrate it there...agreed it's definitely an excuse to party it up! I'll gladly keep celebrating it :)
ReplyDelete¡Jaja! You´re right, it´s a big party in the U.S. and you should keep celebrating for us. ¡Saludos!
