Radish and Tomoxtle

A radish-made man cultivating radishes VS A maize-made man cultivating maize

Noche de Rábanos

This year, and just to continue with the tradition of celebrate Christmas in a different city (2008, 2009), I went to Oaxaca!!

Each year on December 23rd they celebrate the Radish Night, that was one of the weirdest festivals I've ever been. See what they make:

This night is also a contest with 6 categories: Radish, Totomoxtle (the dried leafs of an ear of corn) and dried flowers and each material in Traditional or Free style

On Christmas I visited Hierve el Agua, a petrified fall, and its saline lakes

I really loved Oaxaca for the second time...

And sorry for the very low-resolution pictures, but my previous camera has died [or someone killed it? ... ]

Mi querida Soledad

A pocos días de que inicie el bien hallado fin de semana de 4 días, me encontré este buenísimo video...

Cacahuate, pan, almendra seca, chile, sal, chocolate, canela, pimienta, clavo...

Cuentan que en Oaxaca, se toma el mezcal con café
Dicen que la hierba, le cura la mala fe

Aunque yo prefiero el mole con más chocolate que chile, el café sin mezcal y sin azúcar y sobre la hierba, la prefiero a la mala fe.
