    The Great Cultural Costume Change

    Every March 17th, like clockwork, the world turns Irish. People named Johnson become O’Johnson, beer magically turns green, and suddenly, everyone has an Irish grandmother they’ve never mentioned before. Whether they know a jig from a Guinness or not, it doesn’t matter—on St. Paddy’s Day, we’re all honorary Irish folk, if only for a few pints.

    Then, less than two months later, it happens again—this time with sombreros and margaritas. On May 5th, people who can barely pronounce "quesadilla" suddenly have an intense love for mariachi music and tequila. Yes, it’s Cinco de Mayo, a day often mistaken for Mexican Independence Day (which is actually September 16th). In reality, Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Battle of Puebla in 1862, when a scrappy Mexican army defeated the much stronger French forces. It’s a big deal in Puebla but not a national holiday in Mexico.

    So why do Americans celebrate it like it's the Super Bowl of tacos? Marketing, of course! Beer and tequila companies saw an opportunity, and the rest is history. But hey, if it gets people to appreciate another culture—even in a lighthearted way—there’s something to be said for that. Just remember: no fake accents, no offensive costumes, and maybe take a minute to learn what you're actually celebrating.

    Now, who’s ready for Bastille Day? Time to break out the berets!

    Still Room for Desserts

    Spring desserts are special as they celebrate the season’s freshness and renewal. With vibrant flavors like citrus, berries, and rhubarb, these treats are lighter and brighter, perfectly complementing the warmer days and blooming gardens. They’re a sweet way to welcome the season’s bounty and a refreshing change after the rich, heavy desserts of winter.
