At my grandmother's house preparing her most beloved mole recipe.❤ Preparing mole has helped me to get closure about my grandmother's death. Mole is an ancestral dish from the Aztecs 🇲🇽 Mole comes from the Nahuatl word mulli, meaning sauce. Mole had its origin in pre-hispanic Mexico, when it was called mulli and was made with turkey and served in Aztec rituals and other festive occasions. One of the most treasured ingredients used in the mole is xocolatl, the Nahuatl word for chocolate.
One of my favorite places to visit at the U.S. Naval Academy: Chief Tecumseh's statue! Chief Tecumseh was a Shawnee chief and warrior who promoted resistance to the expansion of the United States onto Native American lands. A persuasive orator, Tecumseh traveled widely, forming a Native American confederacy and promoting intertribal unity.🧡 I am told that the figurehead "Tacumseh" has, for many years, played a prominent part in the traditions of the United Stated Naval Academy at Annapolis, MD. The original wooden image was sent to the Naval Academy in 1866 after being salvaged from the wreck of the old ship of the line "Delaware," which had been sunk at Norfolk during the Civil War to prevent her from falling into Confederate hands.🧡 I love coming to visit Tecumseh's statue at the U.S. Naval Academy, he inspires me and reminds me of the heart and soul of Native American culture and his eagerness to defend his lands.🧡 #thepointofconvergence #lapotosinawrites #potosinablogger #tecumseh #shawneechief #navalacademy #unitedstatesnavalacademy #annapolis #historicannapolis #tecumsehstatue #nativeamericanstatue #nativeamericanchief #nativeamericanwarrior #midshipmen
I love visiting the U.S. Naval Academy. There's always something new that I can learn or take a picture of that I hadn't seen before! I fell in love with the architecture and the sailboats next to the Naval Academy, there's this east coast vibe that you can't find anywhere else! #thepointofconvergence #lapotosinawrites #potosinablogger #navalacademy #unitedstatesnavalacademy #annapolis #historicannapolis #eastcoast #visitannapolis #visitmaryland #eastcoastarchitecture #annapolis
Lovely day in Annapolis, Maryland! I love the views of boats, waterways, 18th-century brick houses ⛵⚓ the food is delicious, if you love seafood 🦐🐟🦀 and you can also visit the U.S. Naval Academy, its beautiful! #thepointofconvergence #lapotosinawrites #potosinablogger #annapolis #historicannapolis #foodie #eastcoast #visitannapolis #visitmaryland #chesapeakebay #boat #sailing #eastcoastlifestyle #sailboat
Last Sunday we went to see the Gipsy Kings in concert. It was amazing! Last time I watched them live was in Chicago more than 10 years ago. What I really liked about this concert was that it was outside in a beautiful auditorium surrounded by nature, it felt like a concert under the moonlight 🌛💫🌠 #thepointofconvergence #lapotosinawrites #potosinablogger #gipsykings #wolftrap #flamenco #flamencomusic #nicolasreyes #flamencosinger #gitano #liveconcerts #underthemoonlight
Happy Birthday Beautiful ❤ #thepointofconvergence #lapotosinawrites #potosinablogger #happybirthday #felizcumpleaños #teamomija #strawberrycheesecake #ihopeyoudance
