October
2, 2007 Terrible storms have passed all across México, especially during August and the first half September. Angangueo has not been badly affected compared with other regions in the coast. Angangueo, as you perhaps know, is a town between high mountans. The hills are steep so we never get floods during raining seasons. The daily rains have stopped and now only tropical storms or hurricanes will bring more rain to the region. Now we start enjoying sunny days but will also start having icy mornings and afternoons.
We just celebrated our Independence day a couple of weeks ago.
It is one of our biggest festivals over the year. This day, September
15, most Mexican families prepare typical Mexican dishes for dinner
such as pozole, a hot dish with maiz and chili and pork meat;
tostadas, a maiz hard and flat tortilla with chopped combined
vegetables on, cream, cheese and a hot sauce spread on, tamales,
enchiladas, maíz (both ground and cooked) and chili wrapped
on corn leafs, and ponche. This latter is a delicious fruit-combination
drink which we dring very hot, sometimes with some alcoholic drink
if we wish, of if it is very cold. |
