The Mexican “Grito de Dolores” that started the Mexican revolution occurred just before midnight on September 15, 1810. That is 199 years ago yesterday. Today, September 16, is the official Mexican Independence Day and also our very good friend Vanesa Batista’s birthday. Vanesa was Lorena’s best friend in Florida when we lived there right after we got married, so calling her is part of our Independence Day ritual. This seems like a very good occasion to eat some tacos!
Ole’!
