Oct 21, 2013 02:17

Hello my dears!  Hope everything is going amazingly in all of your lives.

So THAT time of the year has come. Yes, it’s sugah skulls timez again!!!

I know I’m not at LJ all that much, but I don’t want this sort of tradition I have with you to disappear. This wil actually be the 5th. Year of the Día de Muertos ‘ LJ Sugah Skulls fiesta and I couldn’t be more happier.

For those of you who don’t know or don’t remember, every year I offer to buy sugars skulls, name them after my flisters and put them in my home altar in Día de Muertos (November 2nd.). Here is a more lengthier explanation from the post of last year, the one before that and the one before that.

This video explains better what this day means to us:

I’m making the list early this year so I don’t have to run two days before the festivities :D The offer expires October 25, 'coz I need time to buy them.

Drop me a comment if you want me to dedicate a sugar calaca to you and what name would you like to appear on it or if you 'd like your user name on them instead. Like this:

'Helloh March, I'd like to have one named Chiquita Banana'

Or if you prefer it, you can drop me an email at marthashalala at gmail.com

So far only nindevotee, pride_of_erin , luci_2, colleendetroit, trillingstar, Rachel,  lisacali  and poetfades2black have requested one. Anybody else would like one?

This is how they look, remember is nothing morbid, just a very creepy way we Mexicans have to wish for a happy long life to our loved ones.

Since I can't very well send you the skulls for they are classified as food here, I will send you the label I use on them in this year Xmas card. To compensate in a way.



You know where to find me!

All my love J

xmas cards, sugar skulls, rl
