Tostadas
I've decided on tostadas for the get together I'm having this weekend, a belated bicentennial party. For a while I was thinking making budin azteca, but I think shreded pork tostadas might be more fun, since we're eating outside, weird San Diego permitting.
While usually I'm not one to make a big deal of the Fiestas Patrias, the bicentennial is special and I don't want to miss an opportunity to dive into where Mexico has been. Things are fucked up, yes, but there is still a lot to celebrate. Besides, what better opportunity to go on about the violent and bloody deaths of the founding fathers. Things were messy from the start.
Anyway, will tune in for El Grito tonight, specially since Mr. L has never seen it. Considering how sad and angry the national mood is and how a great deal Mexicans despise President Calderon, I wonder if it will happen as usual.
