This is the week of anticipation to the Day of the Dead, November 1st and one of the most waited upon dishes of people in Guatemala City.
I have often compared the "1ero de Noviembre" to Thanksgiving in the sense of family thinking of ancestors around a wonderful meal.
I will blog more about the dish and the day but for now I leave you with the big display of the meats being sold for the fiambre, which a lot of them can only be found during this time.

Querida amiga... ya se me hace agua la boca con el fiambre...
También es el día de los barriletes gigantes y de fiesta en el cementerio.
Qué lindo post.
I just found your blog. It's great! I have 5 children, the youngest of whom was adopted from Guatemala.
I am adding myself as a follower on your blog!
