Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!

We at Moody Mamas love all things fun and festive...so of course, we encourage your to celebrate Cinco de Mayo (May 5th). While it is a celebration for Mexico's independence in recent years Americans everywhere have started celebrating this day by eating delish regional foods and of course drinking Margaritas! While you may not be able to enjoy alcoholic Margaritas, we encourage you to have this beverage "virgin" and you won't miss anything but that tipsy feeling!

Come together with your friends and family by throwing an impromptu Mexican dinner party. Serve little tacos with queso and chips. Put on some tejano or mariachi music and fiesta! Enjoying foods and traditions from a variety of cultures is a wonderful way to spice up your life. Here are some other fun ways to celebrate this holiday:

* Look out for local parades

* Go to your favorite Mexican restaurant, they will be sure to have some specials and will most likely be festive

*Take out the movie Machete or an old Marlon Brando flick entitled Viva Zapata! to learn more about the journey for Mexican independence

* Learn how to make a new mexican dish that you have not tried before

*Take a dance class that teaches you the traditional dances of Mexico.

Have a wonderful Cinco de Mayo!
