Fat Tuesday, San Juan Cosala, Mexico, Feb. 21, 2023

Men and Boys dressed up as women and girls, bushels of flour flung through the air. Must be Fat Tuesday! I’d brushed myself off before these photos were taken. More surprises awaited when I disrobed to shower, however!  I could have baked a loaf of bread!!!

Pigs and Posies: FOTD Mar 3 2022

 

When my friend Brad invited friends to a dinner at Teocintle Maize Restaurant to celebrate Fat Tuesday, I couldn’t resist acting on the fact  that March 1 was also International Day of the Pig, so I created these little pig table decorations. Since both food and the hats of the pigs were decorated with flowers, I thought they were fair game for Flower of the Day. I couldn’t resist buying these little rubber pigs that oink oink when you squeeze them in the Crazy Woman Shop in Sheridan, Wyoming, this summer. I knew they’d come in handy sooner or later.

For Cee’s FOTD
