El Dia de Reyes Magos

Three Kings Day or the Epiphany

In Latin culture we love to celebrate, and January is no exception! The Christmas celebration is not over in Spain and Latin America! January 6th is a day dedicated to celebrating the arrival of the 3 wise men, who brought baby Jesus the famous gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

This day is celebrated more extravagantly than Christmas day, with crown shaped sweet breads, (the same bread New Orleans uses for mardi gras) gifts, stuffed stocking and lavish parties, a magical day and the official 12fth day of Christmas.

So don’t let the holiday season end on new year you can keep the celebration going until January 6.

Happy, Merry, Jolly, Feliz holiday season to you and your loved ones!
