Summer vacation

Hi again!!

Long time no see uh? This summer I went to a place near my city called "Zacatlan de las manzanas" in the beautiful state of Puebla. Here some photos!

This town's name literally means "Zacatlan of apples" because there's a lot of apples everywhere!

These days they sell apple pies, apples with caramel, chocolate or chili.Apple's wine, apple's marmalade, apple's sauce, apple's soda, everything with apples! I eat a baked apple.Very delicious! =9

I hope you like the photos n_n

El dia de muertos is here!

Next November 2nd will be "Dia de muertos" (day of dead) and everywhere you can see sugar and chocolate skulls, cempasuchitl flowers, pumpkins, "pan de muerto" (a kind of sweet bread).
I love this celebration because all is full of color and tradition! XD

Sweet bread:

Mini graves:

Sugar skulls:

Sugar pumpkins and coffins:

Many "calaveritas", from the bigger to the smaller (I don't like those giant skulls with those eyes O_O) :

I even bought a chocolate coffin and a pair of skulls! the coffin seems to have something inside...:

When could be a good time to eat them? =9

Spring is in the air...

Like the song says.




-Nop, the song says "love is in the air", you silly-









Er... yeah Pelos, thanks for the correction ¬¬X , now go to wash your face, you dirty cat!

Ejem, as I was saying, I LOVE spring!! I've born in this season and everything smells to spring now!! *_*

The things I like the most abut spring are

Strawberrys!! (cost=1kg x usd$1)

Season's fruits =9


Mango (cost= 1 kg usd$1.2)

Flowers! (of course)


(they're for free =D)

I would love to celebrate easter like in the US, with bunnies, eggs and chocolates but here, we "celebrate" (I think is not the word, but... oh well...) in other ways , it's more a spiritual thing. I'm not saying I don't like it but I don't have sweet memories of this kind of tradition.

I can only remember me, standing under the sun, listening to the Father saying incomprehensible things to me at that time, in an "via crucis" which my mother took me once u_u.

We called this week "semana santa" (holy week).

Yesterday was the "domingo de ramos" (palm sunday).Many people went to the church, to bless their palms. Many merchants offers their craft palms.

Every year I like to see this craft and always I buy one. Well, this year I bought more =P

My favorite was this:

Is a little chalice made of palm (cost=usd$ 0.9)

Isn't beautiful? *_*

Well... I hope you enjoy this post, next "mexico life" post will be about "pan dulce" , (sweet bread) n_n

Fin ♥
