Hubby ...Funny you should bring up the subject, lol. Hubby and I went to see Machete last week and this was actually in one of the scenes. When Trejo is injured, the gorgeous female attending him cracks an egg under the bed, minus the dish, after she has waved it in the air around his head. I didn't bother to ask Jose to explain so I love to know the story behind it.Krystal L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15605269346653999829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-21356578424112162402010-09-08T23:57:54.141-05:002010-09-08T23:57:54.141-05:00very nice..I really like this blog.very nice..I really like this blog.Generic Viagra onlinehttp://www.healthpharmarx.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-35699740276035164072010-08-31T15:03:10.718-05:002010-08-31T15:03:10.718-05:00Every time I read your posts I berate myself for n...Every time I read your posts I berate myself for not reading them more often. ;) I was just asked last night if I or my family had "tired blood" after moving here and I was so confused. I assumed I was translating what they said wrong, but now I see that she was basically asking if we were depressed. I wonder how many years it will take for these confusions to be less often. I guess at least now I can recall them when I read or hear something like this.bordersasidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14142674938117338592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-41793803440711708542010-08-30T05:40:23.151-05:002010-08-30T05:40:23.151-05:00Mexico Bob; fascinating as usual.

(Same with "El mal de ojo".) I heard about running a finger along the roof of the baby's mouth, but I had never heard that the baby had to be held upside down. <br /><br />El Mal de Ojo...that is why strangers walk up to strangers to touch their baby. A lot of people believe that if they look at a baby and don't touch it, the baby will develop mal de ojo and possibly die. <br /><br />Now about the empacho. Hubby has two aunts that are self-proclaimed curanderas. The "cure" for the empacho consists of a back massage, which ends with having your skin pulled until it pops, atop every vertebrae. Interesting process. <br /><br />There's also a cure for "El Espanto" or "Un susto", but it has to be done immediately after the scare. All a person has to do is suck on a candy or eat a piece of bread. (Or so I'm told.) If the person doesn't cure themself of "El Espanto" they will develop liver problems and/or diabetes. <br /><br />A very informative post, as always! <br /><br />Saludos y abrazos para ti y Gina.Leslie Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12084393882026836564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-70953407805179014052010-08-28T20:43:18.667-05:002010-08-28T20:43:18.667-05:00Superstition abounds in Mexico, they believe in gh...Superstition abounds in Mexico, they believe in ghosts, UFO's and numerous other things.<br />I was living in Dallas and a friend of mine who had a Mexican girlfriend said, "My girlfriend dumped me, her brother is a troublemaker and worse of all I loaned them my Stereo and can't get it back, I don't know what to do".<br />I told him, "Do this, take a garlic and pin a black ribbon to it and leave it in their mailbox, then, at night, make sure no one sees you and form a cross in front of their house with salt"<br />"What does that mean?" he asked.<br />I told him, "It doesn't mean anything, but it'll worry them so much they'll go pay a big chunk of money to get the HEX taken off of them."<br />It's so much fun to play with weak minds.bob in exilehttp://mexicomystic.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-12891806994776051692010-08-28T20:11:10.595-05:002010-08-28T20:11:10.595-05:00Well sometimes old remedies are the best. Right no...Well sometimes old remedies are the best. Right now I'm sleeping with Ivory soap tucked away at my feet in a nylon sock. It's supposed to help cramps. I also bite down on my lower lip when the leg cramps occur. It's supposed to be the pressure point for cramps. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Maybe it's mind over matter, but there have been time when I bit down on my lower lip and the cramp in my leg went away almost immediately. I still seep some yerba buena when I have ailments such as tummy aches, etc. The old stuff is the good stuff. Great post.GlorV1https://www.blogger.com/profile/06789212398770555465noreply@blogger.com
