Not much to say here. Except Happy Cinco De Mayo. Ever since high school, I’ve never actually thought about why we even celebrate Cinco De Mayo. I knew that it was a Mexican holiday, there’s a lot of food, and of course a lot of drinking, and that’s about it.

From Wikipedia,
Cinco de Mayo (”The Fifth of May” in Spanish) is a national, but not federal, holiday in Mexico which is also widely celebrated in the United States. It commemorates the victory of Mexican forces led by General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguin over the French occupational forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
So, to all our Mexican readers, I hope you enjoy the celebrations!
