Los dejo con unas fotos mientras me voy a comprar un pan de muerto para la merienda. Es maravilloso con chocolate caliente.

Pan de muerto

Día de muertos (the Day of the Dead) is almost here! We'll eat sweet pan de muerto (delicious!) and skulls made out of sugar, chocolate, and amaranth and many people will go to the cemeteries to clean the tombs of their dear ones and spend the night there ––surrounded by beautiful cempazuchitl flowers, candles, food, and prayers–– welcoming them and remembering them with love and respect. There are many children's books published about this celebration, both in Mexico and the US, where the celebration causes a lot of curiosity. One of them is Uncle Monarch and the Day of the Dead, pictured to the right.
I leave you with a few photos (above) while I go to buy some pan de muerto for tonight. It's marvelous with hot chocolate.
