Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Chalinga esai!
 
It is also "Bevrieding", celebrating when the Netherlands was liberated in 1945. If you are a Canadian over there on May 5th, you get treated very well. If you are over there on this day and your birthday happens to be May 5th (as in my case), it gets crazy. I've been there for that a few times, and I understand it was amazing. SO while you enjoy your tacos and build your walls, I'm going to debate the nuances between Heineken and Grolsch !!!

Don't forget the herring.
When in the Netherlands you gotta have the herring.

Not exactly a rich culinary tradition. They colonized Indonesia in order to get a tasty meal.

Cheers Miss Croft! I raise my Heineken to your Dos Equs atop notthemama's wall.
 
Happy Cinco De Mayo!!!! Funny my grandmother in the Dominican Republic literally just called to wish me happy Cinco de Mayo only seconds before I saw this post!
 
Better to celebrate than sitting around being bummed out.
Besides, it's a beautiful day! Burrito anyone?
 
The French took advantage of the American Civil War to make Mexico a colony of France. Napoleon Bonaparte III installed his nephew as Emperor. The Mexican Army defeated the French at the Battle of Puebla on 5 May 1862. It's been a national holiday ever since.

Mmmmm Gooood Eatin!
