After the luncheon (sounds formal doesn't it), we went to a birthday party for one of the sons of a friend of mine at work. Excuse me if I sound not so culturally brilliant here, but holy crap, not sure if it's a Mexican thing (Blanca assured me it was), but there was candy, candy, candy. Wow! There was candy on the cake, candy with the food and of course there was candy in the pinata! If you don't know, I am quite the candy keeper (meaning I keep it then throw it away when someone isn't looking), I don't like it and so I don't buy it, but Buddy loves to collect it. The first piece he had was a chili centered mango hard candy. Seriously! He came running over to me crying/spitting out this candy-of course spitting some into my eye on the way (ouchy I must say), sweet little Blanca (my friend) was saying " oh sorry Buddy, I forgot you wouldn't be used to this hot stuff". Really chili in candy, for kids, holy hots!
(We're saving it for dad)
Buddy had a great time, plus he met a girl (in the wise words of Buddy, duh), her name is Eliza and he followed her everywhere to be her protector. He even showed her his muscles to prove it and she was impressed I'm proud to say!
So all in all a super fantastic day!
