Mole' (Pronounced Moe-Lay) Festival

We spent the afternoon in San Pedro Atocpan at the 80th Annual Mole Festival. Mole is a chile based sauce that usually covers chicken or turkey. There are many different flavors and just completely different than anything we have ever had! We brought some of the homemade powder home to make our own mole, when you come visit, we will be happy to make it for you!

The festivals here are completely different than the ones back home, for starters, it goes until 3 am. (But we did not). I bartered for the first time with the help of a friend.. a funny experience. Remind me to tell it sometime. The landscape was beautiful, the food amazing, and the company was best of all. Hope you enjoy the photos!
