Today, we finished up our visit to Mexico in our home school geography curriculum. Historian and his assistant cocinera (me) made tortillas with seasoned ground beef, tomatoes, lettuce, shredded queso fresco, salsa, and sour cream. To complete the meal, he also served tortilla chips, Mexican rice, and refried beans. The table was decorated with colorful dishes, a Mexican flag, tissue paper flowers, and a map of Mexico on the wall behind us.

These yarn paintings, created by Lizard and Butterfly, were inspired by the beautiful yarn creations of the Huichol Indians of the Pacific coast of Mexico.

We finished our fiesta by watching our favorite dancing dog video,
a dog dancing the merengue.
Next week, we head north, crossing the border as we enter Canada! Au revoir!

ReplyDeleteI think my favorite part would have been the chips!
ReplyDeleteI also liked "our favorite dancing dog video"...because that seems to imply that there are more videos that were in the running ;)
