There are a lot more foods and recipes, but this are some. These are called pasteles. They are made with plantains or yuca and then stuffed with meat.

This is called tembleque /coconut pudding/

Coquito /coconut rum/ is our Puerto Rican eggnog

But one of the biggest traditions is the lechon asado /a roasted pig on a pit/. Most people with big families make a whole pig /some even kill them too :shudders:/ but some buy a part of it, pernil /that would be a part near the thigh and hip/ and depending who makes it it can be really tasty

    My family is not that big but I'm kind of worried that our friends from church decide to give us the surprise hahahahahahaha but my family we do get together for Chrismas and have the music and the food. Tomorrow I'll try to find a video of parrandas for you to see.

    We have a Puerto Rican friend who always talks about closing business deals by "throwing a roasted pig" someone's way. So, now that image is in my head. I think it all looks wonderful!

    And Beca? Just ew.
