For the past couple weeks, people have been selling
lots of things to get ready for Independence Day |
Tomorrow is Mexican Independence Day, we get the day off, so that'll be nice. We also had a party after work. It actually started at 4:00. There were decorations, food and music. It was pretty fun and the food was good. We had tacos al pastor, which seems to be the party favorite around here, and there was also elote. I'm not sure if that is just the whole corn on the cob with chili, or if that is also the name of the corn dish I had which has corn kernels, butter, cheese and chilis. It was surprisingly very good, despite how it looked when all mixed together.
They also had a contest with this toy that seemed a lot like a Japanese toy that I first saw a few months ago in DC. There is this cup shaped box (its not hollowed out though) with a hole on the bottom tied to a stick with a string. The point is to get the cup on the end of the stick. Anyway, it was fun.

One of the other officers brought in these pastries yesterday.
They are called conchas, or something like that. |
