Torta en la cara

Sunday 30 March 2008
There were two birthdays in the family this weekend, so we had a great big party tonight. I learned a lot of Peruvian birthday traditions, including this one: torta en la cara, cake in the face. The birthday boy/girl has to try and take a bite out of the cake, while his/her loving relatives try to shove their face into the cake. (And then they get that piece, of course.) Great fun.

This is so funny to me! Just imagining my family doing this... hilarious. I hope they take the candles off the cake before they do this!
