Oct 24th: Bread of the Dead

No, we're not referring to Jerry Garcia's favorite baked goods. With The Day of the Dead soon upon us, Chaac Mool shares how food lies at the heart of culture. The focus of this session will be traditional breads like pan de muerto, (which translates to "bread of the dead" in English) but dinner and drinks are also included.
