This week, Mexican kids get to take advantage of American Halloween today and Mexican Day of the Dead on Thursday. (more on that later in the week) Ain't globalization great?!

K. is unbearably cute doling out los dulces to the trick-or-treaters. You can hear the rowdy ones coming because they chant, "We want Halloween! We want Halloween!" (!Queremos Halloween!) Before he set out on his first trip to the gate, we reviewed some key Spanish vocab for the holiday:

"Only one." -- Solo uno.
"There are no more Reese's." -- No hay mas Reese's.
"Hey, don't wreck my lawn!" -- !Oye, p^@a de @(%$e!
"Go away!!" -- !Andale! !Rapido!
