Time to put away my calaveritas until next year! If you want to get a head start for Día de Los Muertos in 2011, check out this great post from SA Cultura on offerings to remember to put on your altar as well as a recipe for sugar skulls that look a lot like mine. Bookmark it for next year so you don't forget!

When you say "put them away", you mean "eat them", right? 🙂 If I hadn't made mine out of Play-Doh, I'd have to buy new ones each year.
Maura Hernandez says
Tracy, I was always taught that you are never supposed to eat the calaveras, no matter how delicious they look 😉
Tracy says
Interesting. I heard that some children eat them. Maybe they are being naughty... or maybe some are for eating and some are not?

great pic, we always put our altar away together as a family, my girls have really learned so much about their family, I was out all day snapping pics for wordless wed. I have been wanting to join for awhile, glad you decided to jump in..
