New Years Resolution

New Years Reolution

my new years resolutin for 2008 is to loose 20 pounds. I want to loose weight because i have just a big gut hanging and just getting bigger and bigger. I don't want to be having to stress about my weight and how i look. Maybe if i loose some weight i will feel better about muself.

Posadas

Las posadas are fiestas that begin on the 16th and end on the 29th of December. In Mexico, during this period, there are many posadas every evening. Both invited and non-invited guests gather at a neighbors houses where the posada is going to take place in the evening. They are then divided into two groups. One group goes outside the house with candles that are lit and papers with the verses that they will sing. The people are dressed up as virgin mary and joseph. Sometimes they have a" burro" and they walk with candles. During the rest of the party we break pinatas and we eat the traditional things like bunuelos colacion, tamales, and ponche.
