Hola! It’s amazing because it’s Cinco de Mayo ( the 5th of May) and it falls on a Tuesday which is Taco Tuesday at Ms. Cullen’s house! Mostly because I love tacos! And burritos! And nachos! And empanadas!
Since my children were all born in South America, we eat a lot of Hispanic and Colombian food at our house! and with my son Curt and my daughter Christina living at home with me, we are going to have a Cinco de Mayo party tonight!
First we will have empanadas which are pockets of dough filled with potatoes and beef. We dip these into a very spicy sauce called ahi. Then, we will have Ajaico which is a chicken and potatoes soup with cilantro. Cilantro is a spice used in a lot of Hispanic cooking. To go with the Ajaico, there has to be rice! For desert, we will probably have a flan which is a type of baked custard! Yum! I can hardly wait! Are you celebrating Cinco de Mayo? Do you know why Cinco de Mayo is an important day in Mexico? Do some research and find out…
Onward to today’s lessons!
