Christmas day in Mexico Hi! I live in Mexico and the last Christmas day we had a party in family. I went to Michoacán with my cousins and aunt, when we got there my mom and siblings were already there too. In Mexico as in most countries (I think) Christmas day is to spend time with family and closer people. My aunts started to make food and I helped to make a desert with one of my cousins while children played to... any thing haha, I am not sure they were running only. The dinner was not ready yet, but everyone was already hungry, so we had a break to eat something light. After we continued making everything. At night we were around the table to give thanks for the special day in family, then each one ate a lot! Until get full. We had pozole, tamales, chicken tinga, salad and fruit salad for dessert. We also drank some tequila but not too much. When ending dinner, children was ready for the piñata, I was required for holding the string which supports the piñata, so I had to move the string to make the children work of breaking it harder. They finally achieved to break the piñata and got the candies/sweets/lollies out. I just looked how they took all of candies while my pockets were empty... without any candies... without happiness... and I realized I am not a child anymore (jokes on this last part). What really happened was that I almost fell from the stair where I was holding the string, because one of my little cousins pulled the piñata so strong. At the final I was able to find some sweets hidden in the plants and other places. Later children went to hit the sack, they were so sleepy and the rest stayed having small talks. That is how I spent time with my family on Christmas day. I hope everyone here had a Merry Christmas and a happy NYE. Thanks for your corrections.
