‘La PurÃsima’ is a celebration to
the purest conception of Virgin Mary, taking place on December 8th, according
to the catholic calendar. The celebration itself
grew into a national festival where cities and towns now complete to create the
best and most altars. I’m already working on mine.
‘PurÃsimas’ themselves are made
for gratitude for miracles and usually last nine days.
For the next 5
months, she is the icon I have chosen to watch over my kitchen here in San
Miguel. Why?
I need some
kitchen miracles of my own.
Buen Apetito!
