Celebration: Cinco De Mayo

Since the Arizona immigration law, we're basically looking for any reason to celebrate (turns out the Phoenix Suns are also celebrating) our Mexican - American heritage (see 'American' - their descendants were born in another country just like most of yours).

Why not Cinco De Mayo. This article explains some facts about the 5th of May. Most notable, is that the day does not celebrate Mexican Independence Day, but rather, a victory over the French army in 1862. Mexican Independence Day from Spain is celebrated on September 16th (Diez y Seis de Septiembre).

Still, a promising reason to have a cool margarita. Viva Mexico! Viva Mexica!
