Cinco de Mayo

FELIZ CINCO DE MAYO & FILL-INS

Cooper Murphy Celebrates Cinco de Mayo & completes fill-ins

 

Cooper Murphy is celebrating his first Cinco de Mayo and has made up a special batch of goldfish meowgaritas. Please join him and the other Kitties Blue in a toast to our hosts—Ellen, 15 And Meowing, and Annie, McGuffy’s Reader, for one year of their Friendly Fill-Ins Blog Hop.

Friendly Fill-Ins: Week #52

1. I hate having a landline. I have turned the ringer down so I can barely hear it. Ninety-nine percent of the calls are solicitations or political.

2. My most treasured piece of jewelry is a gold, heart-shaped locket that belonged to my paternal grandmother. It has a photo of me when I was about 2 years old and my sister at about nine.

3. This year, I have learned that I will always have more to learn, especially about blogging.

4. I would like to lose some weight before this year is over.

My completions are in teal italics.

GAUCHO MAU & THE SEVEN CHILI PEPPERS

Feliz Cinco de Meow 2016

Before we start the party and begin drinking meowgaritas and cervezas, we thought you might want to know a little bit more about Cinco de Meow (Mayo).

Cinco de Mayo (the fifth of May) recognizes the Mexican army’s victory over France at the Battle of Puebla in 1862, during the Franco-Mexican War (1861-1867). Cinco de Mayo is a a minor holiday in Mexico, celebrated mostly in Puebla. However, in the United States, Cinco de Mayo has become a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage. This is particularly true in areas with large Mexican-American populations. Traditions celebrated on Cinco de Mayo include parades, mariachi music performances and street festivals in cities and towns in Mexico and the United States.

Kitties Blue cannot resist a good party so Gaucho Mau and the Seven Chili Peppers are here to entertain you.
