Thought it was funny...it happens with Chinese B-Day too.
Subject: Mexican Birthday party
Hispanic Humor.....try not to be offended!
Ways to tell it's a Mexican birthday party...
1. Some of the guests didn't bring a gift, but brought
extra-uninvited kids.
2. The cake says, "Happy Birthday Mijo"
instead of the child's real name.
3. The party is at Chuck E. Cheese but
they brought their own food, cake, and a pinata.
4. It's a child's party but there are more
grown-ups than children.
5. It's Mijo's 1st birthday and the party
food is carne asada, arroz, frijoles, and 10 cases of beer.
6. For entertainment, instead of playing
pin the tail on the donkey, there is usually a televised baseball,
football game, or a live fight.
7. The party was supposed to be over at
5:00; it's 10:00 and the party is just starting.
8. The host calls someone who's on their
way and tells them to stop and get some tortillas and ice.
9. You hear someone go up to the birthday child and say,
"Mira, tan lindo. I'm going to have to get you something next week when I get paid."
10. The party is Saturday,
and you get a call from the hostess Friday night saying,
"I'm giving Mijo a birthday party tomorrow at 3:00."
11. Some guests bring gifts that are still in the store bag.
12. The cake didn't come from the store;
it came from the mother of the comadre of your friend's sister who makes
really good cakes.
13. You are told you have to save your plate and fork you ate your food
with, so you can eat your cake.
14. Guests automatically wrap up a plate of food and cake to take home.
15. It's Mijo's party, but since his
cousin Licha is there and her birthday is in a few days,
it becomes Mijo's AND Licha's party.

Nice to hear about this Mexican party. My friend will be hosting a Chinese dinner party at one of NYC venues. Will surely attend it and will buy a lovely gift for her. Planning to wear a Chinese traditional dress for the day.
