Guatemalans don't celebrate Cinco de Mayo, and why should they? It's Mexican independence day, after all. Of course, that doesn't stop the foreign travelers and expats in town from finding an excuse to have a good time...especially since it happened to fall on a Saturday this year! According to this gallery featured by MSN, beer giants like Miller and Anheuser-Busch helped make the holiday popular in the US during the 1980's.

| Dinner! |
With the semester eking painfully to a close, I've been really busy with final projects, so C and I decided to stay home and cook. There are some women down the street who sell fresh corn tortillas hot from the oven; you can buy a dozen for around $.50. We made quesadillas along with avocado, red pepper, and lime from the market. Absolutely delicious.
