The thing about somewhere like Lourdes is you walk around, laughing at the blatant exploitation of religous iconography - and then you realise some people take it very seriously. And then it just makes you angry that they are being taken advantage of so openly.

Spanish Colonial Art
Spanish Colonial Art has a long legacy of violence, erasure, and exploitation that must be addressed. When Christopher Columbus mistakenly found the Americas in 1492, the Spanish empire quickly began a search for gold and a mission to convert native people to Christianity. The Viceroyalty of New Spain, created in 1532, took over much land in modern-day Mexico, Central America, the Southwest of the United States, the Caribbean, and Venezuela. Later, Spain created other Viceroyalties across South America. By doing so, Aztec civilization, the Inca Empire, and many other indigenous groups were forced to change or were completely eradicated.
Many objects in the Spanish Colonial Art gallery are examples of the riches Spaniards gained in the Americas. However, it is important to acknowledge the suffering and violence inflicted upon people at the time. Spaniards brought disease, forced conversions to Christianity, implemented forced labor, and created a caste system where they would always remain at the top. These histories do not only exist as remnants of the past, as the effects can still be seen in Hispanic culture today. The interventions in this space will bring new stories, ideas, and conversations to the narrative of Spanish colonization.

And this is the mixture.
I had great difficulty settling on a recipe, because every single one I found online varied down to the ratio and inclusion of certain ingredients. In the end, I compiled the various lists of ingredients, studied their proportions, and drafted my own.
Flour, suet and sugar were used in the ration of 10:4:3. Currants, lemon rind (which I'll probably do without the next time), and as much milk as I deemed necessary. Pinch of salt. I also added quite a bit of cinnamon - an ingredient no recipe I found online included. Which probably makes mine unauthentic. But ah well. :D;; 'sides, I was never much a follower of recipes.

I have more fun in the morning, watching Leo try and hunt the squirrels and birds out near the feeders.(the operative word here is "try"......if I see that he's anywhere close to really nabbing something I quickly intervene)
I always make plenty of noise when I open the door to let him out. Sometimes I will actually yell out loud "Look out everybody, here come's Leo!"
Here he is on the fence, trying to sneak up on an unsuspecting squirrel......I yelled at him, the squirrel bolted, and I got a look here like "What the HELL is wrong with you? I almost had that one!!!"
