This year I made it a point to go buy some Day of the Dead bread. Its a small sugar covered load of bread with a skull and cross bones on it. I usually ignore the holiday but this year I just needed to say thanks and remember those who came before me. Relatives and friends who are no longer with us. I sliced the bread and made some hot chocolate and shared it with the kids . I know that I'm a week late on the live post, but its a post. - Someone told me that a person is not dead until every person that remembers him is dead....This tradition keeps people alive in our hearts for a long time. If I was in Mexico I would have gone to the grave site and cleaned it and put flowers out , but here I think that just sitting and remembering will be ok...
