I’m sure you were expecting a picture of a tortilla wrapped around a bunch of cut up food. A burrito in Spanish means a little donkey, or burro. Be careful what you ask for in a restaurant in Mexico.
Happy Cinco de Mayo. A day not so much celebrated in Mexico as it is here in the U.S. The Mexicans defeated the French on this day in 1862, but Mexico’s independence day is on September 16th, and that’s when Mexico really kicks up its heels. Here is a link to the history so that I don’t have to write it out…..I’m recovering from the Cinco de Mayo party we had last night. And we didn’t serve burritos.

Love your choices of the large-grain texture and the wild border. They both add a lot to your great burrito image!

In Puebla they sure celebrate it. Was there once on 5 de Mayo and there were over a million people lining the parade route. . .

I think I’m putting Puebla in my plans for next Cinco de Mayo. That is where the action is! We had been thinking of dividing up our guests last night into Mexican and French, and reenacting the battle 🙂

Remember to have three times as many French as Mexican, and fill them with wine.

One guest dared bring us a bottle of French wine. He was first in front of the firing squad.
